Orioles Fire Trembley, Promote Samuel
When I saw the news that the Orioles fired manager Dave Trembley my reaction was to laugh. The Orioles have bigger problems than the manager so making this kind of change right now has limited importance. (Ken Rosenthal at FoxSports.com has written a column about what the Orioles need to get back on track.) The […]
Rosenthal: Putz Out 8-10 Weeks
Ken Rosenthal at FoxSports.com is reporting that J.J. Putz will undergo surgery Tuesday to remove a bone spur in his pitching elbow. Putz will be out 8 to 10 weeks. Looks like it’s for real now. A big test for Bobby Parnell.
Kriegel Video Critical Of Mets
A rather damning report on the Mets by Mark Kriegel of FOXSports.com.
Phils Give One To Mets
The Mets won 8-2 last night. They beat the Phillies. Forgive me for not being more enthusiastic but Philadelphia was without their spark plug, Jimmy Rollins and committed 4 errors in the game which led to 6 unearned runs. This wasn’t so much the Mets winning as it was the Phillies losing. But as I […]
What’s on Second?
There’s been a lot of rumors lately about who the Mets may trade for as the non waiver trade deadline approaches. The most speculation is around second base where Jose Valentin is on the DL with a fractured right tibia. I’d argue that the Mets are better off without Valentin. Ruben Gotay has been playing […]
Mets & Rockies To Make Another Trade?

I guess the thought process on Ardoin is that with Ramon Castro on the shelf and Mike DiFelice being mostly useless what has Omar Minaya have to […]
So Long, Kaz
On Friday I mentioned a report by Ken Rosenthal at Foxsports.com about the possibility that the Mets would trade Kazuo Matsui to the Colorado Rockies for Eli Marrero. On Staurday morning I opened up the newspaper to see that Ken’s report was spot on.
Matsui a Goner?
I read this morning that when Xavier Nady comes off the DL (he’s eligible next Tuesday) the Mets may release Kazuo Matsui unless they can trade him first. The move makes sense as the team has Jose Valentin starting at second base right now with Chris Woodward ready to back him up and Anderson Hernandez […]

Notes from a Gameless Thursday
Our friend Ken Rosenthal at FoxSports.com has some more Mets dish today. In his latest online column Rosenthal discusses teams who are interested in Mike Cameron. According to Rosenthal the Padres have the stronget interest in Cameron who has been on a tear. Since coming off the DL last week the Mets center fielder turned […]
