Trade deadline begins stretch run for mets
Now that the all star game is over, the Mets can settle into playing everyday again after their layoff. With the season more than half over, here begins the stretch run towards the playoffs. That first step in the stretch run is the trading deadline where teams can wheel and deal in attempts to make their team better, without having players pass through the waiver wire. Mets fans can remember ...

 Super Joe Retires
Super Joe Retires
Former Mets utility player and fan favorite Joe McEwing has finally called it a career after spending all of the 2007 season in the Red Sox minor league system. Super Joe is most remembered by Mets fans for his ability to play every position on the field and his uncanny ability to hit against Randy Johnson, which really is a misnomer based on the 6 at bats he had against Randy Johnson in ...

Mets Fans: Say Goodbye to 2008
After tonights game, as far as I'm concerned the season is over... There's no way Pelfrey is gonna beat Webb tomorrow, and we'll be lucky if Santana can beat Haren on Thursday... This whole season has been a joke, every single player except for Wagner has seriously underperformed, Willie has made every mistake possible along the way... READ MORE

Jeff Conine to the Mets?
FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Mets are on the verge of acquiring utility player Jeff Conine from the Cincinnati Reds for two Class-A position players.

If the Mets Blow This Lead Just Fit Me for a Straightjacket
This isn't happening. Somebody please tell me this is not happening. The Mets cannot choke away the National League East. I mean, they simply cannot do it. I really don't think I'd be able to handle it. I can see it now. I'd be jobless, the engagement would be called off, and I'd probably find myself living under a bridge listening to Creedence Clearwater on a used tape player that I ...

 Your Season Has Come
Your Season Has Come
Heartbroken, anger, and disbelief, are just a few of the many emotions being shown by the 15,000+ members in the facebook group after the Mets historic meltdown. Who can really blame them? This wasn’t the ending we all planned on. Two weeks ago we held a very comfortable 7 game lead with 17 to play. We were sitting in the driver’s seat looking at the SNY pocket schedule, seeing 13 of our ...

Torrealba Deal Falls Apart
The deal was as good as done, news outlets everywhere were reporting that the Mets had signed free agent catcher Yorvit Torrealba. And then suddenly, everything fell apart. The two sides already had agreed on a three-year contract worth $14.4-million and it appeared that the only remaining holdup to an official announcement was a physical. Mets spokesperson Jay Horowitz spoke about ...

 Eckstein or Castillo
Eckstein or Castillo
The most recent rumor coming out of Mets camp has been their interest in SS David Eckstein. Eckstein who was the starting shortstop for the 2002 World Champion Angels and the 2006 World Champion Cardinals (man it still hurts to say that), could play second base for the Mets is he is willing to switch positions. The Mets, who have also shown interest in re-signing current second baseman ...

Castillo re-signs with the Mets
According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, citing ‘major-league sources,’ the Mets and 2B Luis Castillo are close to agreeing to a four-year, $25 million contract. The Astros, Nationals, and Cubs all had expressed interest in Castillo, whom the Mets acquired from the Twins at the non-waiver deadline for two minor leaguers. Four years might be considered a risky move with Carlos Baerga, ...

Monday Memories: The Offseason Blues
Monday Memories: The Offseason Blues Okay, so this off-season isn't shaping up to what most of us expected. The Mets suffered a terrible collapse, and they've done nothing significant since then. They traded away Lastings Milledge, lost Glavine (and I don't care if he blew the last game of '07, I wanted him back), and upgraded what, exactly? Don't fear, Mets fans. The Mets have had some ...

Why Don't We Do This?
A few weeks ago over at the facebook group I asked the question; what should the Mets do if we don't acquire another starting pitcher this off season? My solution to this potential problem was to resurrect an old idea; one which would allow the Mets to solidify the rotation with a young veteran pitcher and strengthen the bullpen with two proven relievers, all without having to sacrifice the farm..
