Yeah DePodesta looks like he got a dry rub on this, something else has too be up though IMO, maybe McCourt has been talking to another GM and intends to hire him?..the very fact that he didn't pay Beltre shows he's smart, although the LoDuca deal still stings in LA,and can you really blame the GM for club house chemistry?

Mardie Cornejo played a rousing set to the stoned crowd... Gimme a Met that George Bush should nominate to the Supreme Court.

It looked to me that he had a dose of the shakes, nerves?..

The Onion's 05 season review....funny stuff.http://www.theonion.com/content/node/42110

Jeff Keppinger will be the Mets second baseman after Kaz gets his chance out of Spring Training.

Chevrolet cares and Bud cares...but yeah it seemd a pointless exercise to me.

We'll find out if Yancy can get him here....

Did he work games with McCarver?

IIRC Frayed Knot Ken Willimas got bashed a bit in "Moneyball", or at least came accross as if he got duped by Beane...

Yes I laughed at the hair and doo-rag, and in one bit a few were shouting waz-up....no Bobby though.

Watch video of Chiba Lotte players go crazy....from the Chiba site http://www.marines.co.jp/

What's wrong with that question?

Did he sign with the Mets out of High School or College?

Is this mystery player currently involved in Professional Baseball as a coach or Front Office type?

Has he played for the Mets in the last twenty years?

Yancy your a gamer, I hope the mystery guest shows up this time.

]Concern for Pedro BY DAVID LENNON STAFF CORRESPONDENT October 27, 2005 HOUSTON -- Pedro Martinez, introduced last night as a member of the Latino Legends team, says he has plans to pitch for the Licey Tigers in his native Dominican Republic, as well as represent his country in the World Baseball Classic. But Martinez also has damaged cartilage in his right big toe, and that seems to be an unresolved issue for the Mets' $53-million righthander. Martinez pitched with the injured toe for most of the season, and was shut down after his five-inning start against the Marlins on Sept. 22. Martinez believes that rest and rehabilitation should take care of the problem, provided that he wears better protective footwear on the mound. But there is still discomfort, and that could put his extracurricular plans on hold. "They told me to rest it for a month and see how it goes from there," Martinez said before last night's Game 4 of the World Series. "Just walking around, I can tell that it's not as good as I'd like it to be. But it's not getting worse." Asked if the toe might need surgery, he replied, "I'm assuming not." Martinez's friend, Manny Ramirez, also was selected to the Legends team, but the Red Sox leftfielder - and Mets' obsession - did not attend yesterday's event. Earlier this month, it was reported that Ramirez's agent said his client would not welcome a trade to the Mets, but Martinez grinned at the suggestion. "Manny's his own man," Martinez said. "It's none of my business to criticize what they do. If Manny comes over, welcome. If he doesn't, well, we'll just go on with whatever we have."

Celine Dion singing "Oh Canada" was awful....

I think we can expect some changes in the coaching ranks, Manuel to the bench and Alomar to 1st.

A trio of Mets..

I think I heard Buck say Dye is the MVP...but yeah Uribe made two special plays, that's big time .

Yeah you could be right FK..congrats to the Sox, no more are they the second team in the second City..

And it's our old friend Vizciano...and this time he fails....I was hoping for a seven gamer..

Sox take the lead....Dye has had a great series, Ozzie making all the right moves..

Backe is out, Bagwell is hitting for him, Backe was brilliant...
