Manny Ramirez’s comments at the All-Star Game [...]
Arguing over whether the AL is better than the NL and using the All-Star Game as a point is pretty dumb. The AL has won the last 10 that went to decisions. This is still short of the National League’s 11-year winning streak and not remotely close to the 19-1 stretch the NL [...]
With Moises Alou officially gone for the season, the Mets are rumored to be trading for every corner outfielder in the league. With gigabytes of Mets blogs out there and reams of paper in the New York Media… I wanted to sort through the most likely options to see who they could get in [...]
On Mike & The Mad Dog, John Heyman suggested that he “thinks” the Rockies would do this trade.
Carlos Beltran and Fernando Martinez for Matt Holliday and Willie Tavares. Gee, Jon, ya think they’d do that? One of the best center fielders in the National League and their top prospect for a creation of [...]
Sometimes the sports’ media truly amazes me. They have absolutely no problem calling Adam Dunn a creation of Great American Ballpark but then also seem completely OK with the Mets looking at Ryan Church. The New York Times called it a “dream”.
with Ryan Church’s indefinite unavailability, makes it pretty necessary that he’ll be [...]
And the Mets have been winning… so I’m kinda/sorta afraid to start again. The team’s bats have looked alive and short of the near explosion in Philly the pitching staff has looked solid.
That said: Nick Evans? Not to rag on the guy too much but if his last outing proved anything it [...]
Last week I said that if the Mets didn’t manage to go 5-3 in this road trip vs. the Cardinals and Phillies I was going to pretty much decide that they were a .500ish team and didn’t really have the stones to take the division. Of course, wouldn’t you know they manage to do [...]
I stand by my contention that this team does not want to be over .500. Every time they get close, they blow games in new and amazing fashion.
The stat they threw up last night was telling. The Mets are the only team in the major leagues who have not come back to win [...]
Tom: Manny threw his hat in to this year’s Ty Cobb Memorial Douchebag Award voting.
Mike: tied with Shawn Chacon, dropping Milton bradley to 3rd.
Tom: It’s a good year. We have give entries if you include Elijah Dukes. Are we putting Reyes or Santana in the running?
Mike: …….NOPE

There you have it. For the [...]
