  1. I picked the Tigers to win the pennant last year. Looks like they'll continue to be good. I think I'm gonna adopt them as my AL team.

His first lower body injury will be his last. You want to make a 9-year-bet, Ceets? No, I'm just tired of waiting for all these supposedly bad contracts to suck (besides the ones the Mets sign) There's no formula for injuries. CC had knee surgery before last season. wasn't major, but it was still a lower body injury.

Prince's mansion should have a special shrine room devoted to Scott Boras This contract is perhaps the most insane i've ever seen... does anyone think Fielder has a chance at lasting that long with his body? Sabathia's 4 years older and fine. (listed heavier too) and he has to pitch. and can't be stashed at DH. Not selling jeans here.

  5. Edgy DC wrote: The starter (139 games and 1044 innings) was Rafael Santana, who didn't get his batting average over .200 until August 25, and who had an OPS+ of 52. Well hey, Tejada will beat that. I was always amused when Ordonez was near the top of the leagues in IBB. I think it was around that time I started realizing managers aren't the 30 smartest baseball guys in the world. Far from it.
  6. I ended up not seeing a ton of movies last year. Not that I was intending on seeing most of the ones on the list of nominees. Did see The Help the other day though. Still haven't seen Moneyball. I should go do that.
  7. smg58 wrote: The trade rumors around Murphy earlier in the offseason seemed to involve reserve outfielders (like Andy Dirks of the Tigers), which would be selling very low rather than high. Plus, somebody has to play third base when the Mets trade Wright. why? just have the fan do it.
  8. seemed a genuinely good guy and he did have a rather rough time personally last year, (his wife lost a baby right?) and the beat guys, at least Martino, seem to like him and think it's a mistake to let his veteran leadership go. Baseball wise, I won't miss him.
  9. if Murphy continues to hit like he has, he could have enormous value for anyone looking for bat in the summer (Which could be the Mets. They're probably not looking to offload him) He can play first and third at least averagely, and we'll see about 2nd. and we do have K pitchers. the Mets were 17th, right in the middle of the pack, last year. Obviously a lot depends on if it's Santana or like..Batista, but he Ks guys, Niese Ks guys. Dickey and Gee are below average but Dickey's decent at inducing soft contact due tothe knuckler. Pelfrey's subpar but not by a ton. Pelfrey and Niese let up a lot of hits though, and that's where the problem is, in the double plays. But he's generally been a pretty good range guy, and actually his overcommitting problems will likely be less of a problem at second. So maybe we're trading a couple of double plays for a a couple more outs in the field.
  10. He's off the Cincinnati. I don't really have any distinctive memories of him. He played in a whole lot of games all over the place, and actually wasn't horrible at not making out, but.. I'm sure someone does, somewhere. go for it.
  11. should I put in for the time off now, or wait until I actually have tickets?

It's always Michael Almonte. That's International Recording Artist Michael Almonte to you! And longtime friend of the Mets! What's not the be excited about? Johan Santana may be pitching. David Wright is still here. Davis and Duda may hit the Pepsi Porch so much that Pepsi calls up the Mets and asks them to talk to Coke.

  17. not a member, maybe I should join. hmm..
  18. anything good happening?

  22. jwmann2 wrote: Under 2 million is not a hard stretch. The Reds did it in 2007 and the Royals seem to do it every year. Then again, I doubt the Mets could fall under that playing in New York. A lot will have to do with where they are in July once the weather gets warm.

It sucks. 1-6 homestand, Wright-Davis collision, injuries..bleh Just show me Dickey pitching, Beltran and Reyes being awesome, transition to Duda/young guys being awesome and Reyes more.. bleh. I imagine they're planning to do one every year.
  24. Nymr83 wrote: Why was St Louis stupid enough to build the stadium without ironclad gaurantees? If I were a municipality, I wouldnt pay for a stadium (I'd maybe go so far as to offer a tax break or supporting road improvements for privately financed one, but i'm iffy even on that), but if I were to build one, there'd be so many doomsday clauses that the franchise would be afraid to even mention moving, they'd have to gaurantee 8 home games per year for 40 years or face heavy fines if they reneg. That ironclad type deal is what the Islanders have on Long Island..and it's a horrible situation for everyone.

So here's a link. And the photo of me at the end is pre-weight loss, so just kind of scroll over that... I'm confused as to what you mean about not being able to post photos.
