  1. The Mets need this one BADLY after losing two straight to the worst team in the league. This series is reminding me of the trip to Houston. I was hoping for a 5-2 road trip. That's still barely possible, but not likely now...especially if the team from the past two nights keeps showing up.
  2. Last night was a piss-poor effort by most all Mets players not named Santana. Tonight has to be better.

  4. Which one of these teams is the worst in the league?

  7. The NY road greys and blue caps look exceptionally good at Wrigley.
  8. I'd go Ventura. It promotes conversation with enemy fans with minimal confrontation.
  9. I miss the Mets/Cubs rivalry. Good job, attgig.
  10. When I think of Ivan Nova, I think of... [youtube:1jdt2k8n]MUL_VgxxYus[/youtube:1jdt2k8n]
  11. Yeah, It hough FF would be smarter than that.

  13. Rubin on Twitter: When you see Daniel Murphy tonight in a dugout camera shot -- no, he did not lose a bet. I wonder what that is all about.

  16. Ceetar wrote: Not quite what I meant. I don't know that Reyes fangraph perceived value exceeds his contract in his 6th (2017 right?) year. I was more going along the lines of being a contributing player and not a liability or a 2010 Castillo type player. Not a lynchpin or dynamic leadoff hitter, but a helpful player who the Marlins* don't feel like they need an upgrade on. Top third SS in the NL type. How but an aggregate over the 6 years? I'm not asking for his value to exceed his contract in 2017, but it would need to exceed the contract value in total over the 6 years. If not, what would be a fair measure over the life of the deal?
  17. Gwreck wrote: Would the Mets have won more games to date with Reyes instead of the Tejada-Cedeno-Valdespin-Quintanilla-Turner lineup we set out there? Yes. I'm not sure how that can be sliced as a blanket yes or no question. If they answer is yes, then it is by a win or two at best. If that's the question we are going to be asking, then forget Reyes...they should have re-signed Beltran last winter.
  18. Edgy DC wrote: FanGraphs puts a dollar value on every player's production, according to the market. If he exceeds his salary in that dollar amount, Ceetar wins. I'm cool with that if Ceetar is. Case of beer...loser's choice? I made a bet with my brother last Xmas that the Mets would win more games than the Marlins over the term of Jose's deal. I'm currently ahead on that one.
  19. Ceetar wrote: I'd still wager he'll be valuable through all 6 years of it. Depending on how you define "value", I'd take that wager.
  20. I'm still happy with passing. The length of the deal was too long and I said so at the time. Jose will have better days (he wasn't always the most consistent player from year-to-year in NYC, either). The best news for me isn't so much the blah year that Reyes is having, but that the rag-tag bunch of Mets shortstops have combined for 6 more runs, 5 more doubles, 3 more RBIs and just as many HRs as Jose this season.

  22. Wow...the Orioles (like the Rays) are not impressing me. I know that the AL East is whipping the NL East's ass this season, but from the Mets point of view...I'm not sure how.
