When the Mets traded for J.J. Putz last
off-season, a lot of people hurried out to the
store to purchase a new shirt for No. 22. Not even a full year later, it’s likely that Putz is done as a member of the Mets. So I asked my Twitter followers if they regret buying a certain player’s ...

Two weeks ago I wrote that Aroldis Chapman
should not be in Mets fans plans for the
future of the franchise. Today, I’m writing…to re-state that opinion. Yes, Chapman has met with Mets officials. Yes, he was “said” to be “considering” the Mets. But for the money he wants, do you ...

If anyone thinks it’s a smart move for
the Mets to bring back J.J. Putz and his
$9.1 million option, they need to take all their Mets gear and light it on fire. Putz, who appeared in a mere 29 games for the Mets in an 11-player trade, was oft-injured and mostly ineffective. He posted a ...

First-baseman of the future, Ike Davis , was
named to the Arizona Fall League’s Rising Star Game.
Davis is batting .340 (17-50) / .370 OBP / .640 SLG with six doubles, three home runs and 10 RBI in 12 games. Davis, who in my mind will be playing first at Citi Field in 2011, has quickly become ...

I took to Twitter to ask that very
question. Which outfielder would Mets fans most want to
see patrolling the grass in Citi Field next year (or, if they thought the team would be better off without them, why?). Here are some responses… saffir_99 said: Hmm.. Holliday, he could hit and is ...
