Perez Starts Today
Oliver Perez goes for the Mets today. In 2 starts covering 11 2/3 innings this season Perez has not allowed any runs (earned or unearned). That means he’s due so look out. It may be a tough one to watch today.
Shea Opener A Bust
Can somebody please tell me why Scott Schoeneweis is still pitching for the Mets? He blew another game yesterday. It was his first loss of the year but since he’s been with the team he has gone 0-3 with a 5.04 ERA. The obvious answer is that he’s under contract. But for what team? The […]

Perez Is Hot
Oliver Perez had a good outing today. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits while striking out 5 and walking none in 5 innings of work. Now if only he could do that in September.
El Duque Starting Slow
It’s been a couple of weeks since I posted but interestingly enough not much has happened. Carlos Beltran had a mini war of words through the media with Jimmy Rollins after Beltran said the Mets were the team to beat this year. Oliver Perez handed the Mets organization their first arbitration loss in 16 years. […]

Many Open Questions
With spring training starting this week it’s time to to ask some questions that the Mets will be facing this season. Here are some I came up with. Feel free to leave your own in the comments. Top of the rotation – This is what Mets fans have been dreaming of all off season. Johan […]
Church Signed
The Mets avoided arbitration with Ryan Church by signing the outfielder to a 1-year, $2 million deal. Oliver Perez is the last remaining arbitration eligible player on the roster. Omar Minaya has a good track record for avoiding arbitration having never gone into spring training without having all of his arbitration eligible players signed but […]
