Reyes to No. 3 in Mets lineup

Reyes to No. 3 in Mets lineup

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 [...]

2010 MLB Off-Season Review: NL East

2010 MLB Off-Season Review: NL East

Atlanta Braves
Key losses- Javier Vasquez, Kelly Johnson, Rafael Soriano, Mike Gonzalez, Garrett Anderson, Adam LaRoche
Key additions- Billy Wagner, Melky Cabrera, Troy Glaus, Takashi Saito
Off-season grade- B
Justification- I feel they upgraded the bullpen with the addition of Wagner and Saito. The Vasquez deal seems like a salary dump, but they got a nice defensive center fielder [...]

Talks Heating Up With Sheets

It was reported recently that the Chicago Cubs had put Ben Sheets on the back-burner, despite mutual interest.
Well, today Jim Bowden tweets “Ben Sheets negotiations, according to reliable sources, are heating up with teams most interested … the Rangers, Mets, Mariners, A’s and Cubs.”

New York Mets Top Prospects 2010

1) Fernando Martinez-OF
Just because he was injured for most of 2009, doesn’t mean he lost all of his ability. He’s still young, still fast, still can hit. I expect him to rebound, although with the sign of Jason Bay- I don’t know where he’s going to play outside of AAA.
2) Wilmer Flores- SS
A large body [...]

Does Jason Bay Make the Mets a Contender?

Does Jason Bay Make the Mets a Contender?

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 [...]

Mets Meeting with Lackey’s Camp Tonight

Reports are indicating that the New York Mets will be meeting with Lackey’s Reps tonight. It’s unclear at this point if the Mets are going to saddle up the money that will likely be needed to bring in the Ace, but I’m sure they’ll get a good feel for what the market is going to [...]

Player Prediction: David Wright

Player Prediction: David Wright

In 2009, David Wright had the worst season of his career. He only hit 10 HR, 39 doubles, and 72 RBI and saw his strikeout rate jump 8%. There were, however, still some positives from Wright. He posted a very nice .307 batting average and a .390 OBP despite seeing his BB% fall a full [...]

Mets Persuing Bengie Molina?

Mets Persuing Bengie Molina?

The New York Mets are still looking for that catcher who can consistently start in 130 games or so. The guy on the market that could and should  fit their price tag is…(Name that Molina…Bengie!). Molina has had a couple pretty decent offensive seasons for the Giants and his bat could be badly needed in [...]

A Major Mistake?

A Major Mistake?

In 2008, KRod set the single season saves record with 62. And then after losing arbitration the previous winter, it was pretty obvious a team was going to be dumb enough to pay a closer 14-16 million a year. The Mets were completely brutal in 2008 due to their bullpen being as ineffective as they [...]
