Watching The NY Mets .....

..... is about as exciting as watching paint dry.

If I hear Willie Randolph or any more of the players spout platitudes again,I will upchuck. The team is not hitting & has not since day one. The is the 2 nd out of 3 seasons when Beltran has been sub par . Offensive numbers for Delgado, Wright & Reyes are all down.Alou missed a good part of the year. Ruben Gotay at second was doing great so naturally the Mets trade for a second baseman with no power & bench Gotay. Pure Mets.

I doubt they will make the playoffs but if they sneak in as a wildcard look for an early exit. They do not have to do the massive rebuilding the Yankess do but changes are needed. Trade Beltran if you can & go from there

Imagine the yankees hitting & the met pitching. The pitching is failing now as the pitchers know they almost have to pitch a shutout every time they take the mound.

I swear the Mets could take DiMaggio & Gehrig & turn them into 200 hitters. The season is best summed up by this: Beltran injures himself swinging in batting practice

Don't get me wrong the mets still have plenty of problems but they are still by far the best team in ny!

Actually Reyes is having a much better year than last and David seems on target to be about the exact same. With David having more stolen bases, runs, and walks. And reyes having more walks and a higher batting average.

ok and that pic has to do with mets why?

Agree, Roxy ! I live and die with this team, but the offense is a cure for insomnia this year !!!

I just hope they dont blow tonight's game, like they did last night (although, cant fault Wagner... he has been great !)

I have a feeling Wright gets that 3rd HR tonight !!

More like it was Randolph for letting Mota pitch !!!

At least you guys aren't Phillies fans and everytime the bullpen comes into a game you have to take every antacid drug known to man to make your stomach settle...
