It’s rare that a club is ever blessed with the dynamic abilities and prowess of a Jose Reyes. When healthy, the Mets shortstop is one of the most exciting leadoff men in the game, and provides a spark that is significant to setting the tone for the rest of the lineup. With his speed, Reyes [...]

1. Ryan Braun MIL This guy can do it all. 35 bombs, 20 steals, a .320 average, 115 runs, 115 RBIs, what more can you ask for? He’ll continue to put up monster numbers and is the clear No. 1 choice in outfield because he simply has better power numbers than Crawford. Cherish your time [...]

Jason Bay signing with the Mets was a shock and not a shock at the same time. Rumors have been floating around about the Mets interest in Bay since he hit free agency, but I personally thought Jason Bay would just flat out not want to leave Boston so it’s hard to believe in a [...]

Daniel Bard throws the easiest 100 mph fastball I’ve ever seen. If you haven’t seen him throw a fastball, please search for one on Youtube and be astounded by how free and easy it was. Not only does he throw 100, he’s got a real good slider that has some strong curveball-like bite down and [...]

John Lackey picked a heck of an offseason to become an unrestricted free agent. Being arguably the only ace type starter on the market, it’s pretty obvious he’s going to get an AJ Burnett like package or better, the main question is gong to be….who gives it to him? There’s a lot of hype out [...]
