What are you guys doing here? Marty's the one at fault. He's the one who picked these questions. He's doing a mailbag for the Mets' official website, of course some morons are going to write in. He could've chosen more intelligent questions to respond to. And if there were no intelligent questions, he could've just NOT done a mailbag.

Jive-assed?

If you don't like the apple you're a communist

Drew Barrymore is ugly.

Here in the Juice Box. I remember that one. I'd say let's start Gotay here on out, but I'm not sure how good he is. He's 25 now and didn't get much PT on Freakin Kansas City.

Houston really booing the shit out of Beltran. It must feel like Opening Day at Shea 2006 to him. Must be nice for the home team when the fans make the other team uncomfortable.

I hope he's not permanently damaged. Reyes and Gomez at the top of the order for ten years is a real turnon.

Did anyone know Lo Duca was OPSing to .700 coming into today? I did not.

What happens when Moises come back? I would LOVE for them to cut Franco, but I'm guessing Gotay goes down to the minors. (Gomez instead maybe?)

The Mets are 13th in the majors in walks. 7th in the NL.

I think it might be time to end The Jason Vargas Experiment. Not that I have a strong suggestion on who to replace him with the next time we need an emergency starter. Dave Williams?

Johnny Dickshot wrote: Gotay at 2B would leave room for Valentin to be the backup catcher which I think he is. RedAss is serving his suspension?

Cole Hamels has great stuff. But his ERA is 3.87. At this point I'd say Maine is a better pitcher.

iramets wrote: ="Elster88"]This is giving me a headache. My two main points were 1) You can't dismiss out of hand the idea that the Pedro signing could have influenced Beltran. You'll also note (well you would have if you were paying attention) that I did dismiss it because I don't remember Beltran saying it happened. 2) Comparing the idea (that the Pedro signing could have influenced Beltran) to the dogma of Derek Jeter is a poor analogy at best and stupid at worst. Do you disagree with either of those two points? I don't know that I need to, since you apparently disagree with yourself on point #1. You say that I can't dismiss out of hand a concept that it's apparantly ok for you to dismiss out of hand. WTF is that? LMK how your debate turns out, and I'll take on the winner, okay? You dismissed it because you didn't like the way it sounded. I dismissed it because no one can show evidence that it happened. Do you see the difference?
