No Love
Lastings Milledge went from golden boy to enigmatic, overly brash outfielder before he even took a swing at the big league level. The Mets spent the winter trying to deal him, but his stock dropped a bit and that contributed to them not being able to...

The Great Willie Debate
I have to tell you that in such a boring off-season, this Willie debate has been one of my favorites. We all know that Willie wanted to be paid....and by paid I mean $2 million per season. For reference, let's look at the $2 million dollar managers. ...

There's still a lot of 'Mambo' left
"There's still a lot of 'Mambo' left," Lima told ESPNdeportes.com, referring to the nickname he's known by in the Spanish-speaking world. "My arm feels better than ever, and I've shown that time and again this winter season." You have to be amused...

Optimism Abound
I am very excited for this upcoming season. Yes, in past years I might of been accused of being negative, but there is not much to be complaining about this year. For one, my lack of concern about the Mets pitching staff is further backed up by one of...

Random Tidbits
Did you ever have a hankering for a mint that was bacon flavored and just wonder how the hell you were going to satiate your desire for pork flavored breath fresheners? Wonder no more. Each one of these mints tastes like a delicious slice of...

Stupidity Revisited
Remember when Benny and Baseball Prospectus went head to head over an article chastising Omar for some spot on remarks? I do and I love bringing it up because of how apparently wrong they were. Yes, I'm wrong a lot, but we are not talking about me....

Tom Terrific?
From DG on Friday: So, just an observation in regards to Glavine. Three innings so far - and the Detroit loss as well - and I kind of find myself wishing that he'd get his 300th then fade away next season. He cannot beat a patient team. You just ...

The Santana Babble Continues
I would apologize for my absence , but that would insinuate that I actually think I am important so I will skip that. However, I could not resist jumping back into the Johan Santana fray since that is all that seems to be going around these days. ...

I Like Ike
Ike Davis was a solid pick for the Mets giving them the ability to fill whatever need is there be it a corner outfielder or a first baseman. Most likely Ike will stick at first and that is a huge hole for the Mets and they got a good one. The Mets ...

Things Are Getting Kind of 'Ticklish'
So the Mets have 29 blown saves this season. That is a very troubling number as they move towards a potential playoff birth, but I need to take a step back for a moment and think a bit more positively about this situation. For one, Jerry Manuel is not ...

Drafty, Draft, Draft. I Like The Draft: Part Dos / Fuck Yeah: Pedro Edition
I was praying for a little Eric Hosmer (#4 on K Law's list), but it appears as if the Royals are fed up with being losers and have decided that they are undeterred by the potential price tag of Hosmer. And methinks that if they go after him that ...
