David Wright Ready For Major Leagues?
David Wright has gotten some attention from ESPN’s John Sickels. Sickels wrote a very nice profile on Wright last week and included Wright in his column titled Top 10 possible promotions just posted on ESPN’s website. Sickels says of Wright: In my opinion, he is ready for major league action, both offensively and defensively, and […]
I’m Back
My web hosting issues apparently could not have come at a worse time. In the last week we’ve had a coaching change (I’m indifferent but supportive of it, if that makes any sense), a trade (I like this one, there’s really nothing to lose), the long awaited return of Jose Reyes (I’m happy but a […]
Temporary Relocation
Due to a change made by my web provider I can no longer update my blog to my domain through Blogger. I’ve relocated the blog to Blogspot (click here to go to current blog) on what I hope is a temporary basis. This is not the first time I’ve had a problem with my web […]

Please Forgive Me
In a post last week I erroneously reported that the Mets were contractually obligated to make a decision on Scott Erickson‘s status with the team after his latest rehab start. I have since learned that this contractual obligation is not until June 28. This will allow Erickson to get one or two more starts before […]
Reyes Returning?
Sources are reporting that Jose Reyes may be in a Mets uniform as early as this weekend. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Every time we’ve heard that Reyes has been close to returning something bad has happened. Let’s hope for the best but be prepared for the worst.
Of Walling and Hitting Coaches
The firing of hitting coach Denny Walling yesterday was quite unfortunate. It’s sad when good people get fired but at the same time the numbers don’t lie. The Mets hitters are toward the bottom of almost every statistical category as a team most glaringly their .102 average with the bases loaded. I’m not much of […]
Nothing To Write
I have absolutely nothing to write today. Other Mets blogs are running pieces on David Wright’s first game at AAA Norfolk, Jose Reyes & Scott Erickson rehabs and trade rumors. I’ve got nothing to say about any of that stuff today. Enjoy your day.
I’m A Bad Fan
Call me a bad fan but I did not see or hear anything about this weekends games until this morning. Truth is that outside of some more solid pitching from Tom Glavine yesterday I didn’t miss anything. David Wright has been promoted to AAA Norfolk. I’d say that translates into a late July or early […]
Peter Vescey on Larry Bird’s Comments
In today’s New York Post Peter Vescey discusses Larry Bird’s comments about the need for more white stars in the NBA. Vescey calls Bird’s thoughts racist. He goes on to talk about how the color of a teams star(s) doesn’t affect ticket sales but the quality of the team does. While I agree with that […]
