I'm writing this weekly update a bit quick because it's the beginning of a new month and yesterday was an offday, so it just feels like a good time to do it. This was only a four game sample including the rubber game against the Cardinals and the 3 game series against the Padres. Look... Continue Reading →
Gary said it best, that was one of those games that you just forget about and erase from your memory. The first game of this series was a great win and I really hoped that it would put us back on the right track. But after last night I don't know if that's happening. This... Continue Reading →
The Mets need a catcher on this team more than anything. Plawecki isn't that good, Nido isn't ready to hit at this level, and Lobaton has never been able to hit at this level. It's the biggest hole we have on our roster besides a second lefty out the pen. Mets need to make a... Continue Reading →
Mike Trout is good at baseball. Very good at baseball. He is without a doubt the best player in baseball today. He'll be remembered as one of the all time greats of the sport. And to me, he is a perfect example of why baseball WAR stat is seriously flawed to the point of irrelevance.... Continue Reading →
This may be the last time we see Harvey as a Starter for the New York Mets. Barring injury to the rotation, Mickey has to strongly consider sending Harvey to the bullpen. The man once referred to as the Dark Knight, is playing a lot more like those guys in the hockey pads. With Jason... Continue Reading →
Let's start off by wishing a belated Happy Birthday to Tomas Nido who turned 24 on April 12th. I'm sure he wasn't wishing for anyone to get hurt, but its a pretty awesome gift to get called up to the majors right before your birthday and just became an important piece to the Mets 2018...

I started writing this before last night's eighth inning. I was in a much better mood then. Before last night the Mets were still rollin, this time over the Marlins and the Brewers. Mets went 5-2 this week, sweeping the Marlins in a quiet storm type of series that Mets fans are used to against... Continue Reading →
Well we knew we'd get here eventually. No playoffs, 4th straight season with 50+ loses, injured key players. There wasn't really much to get excited about this year, especially after Kristaps Porzingis went down. This week the Knicks went 2-2 with wins against the Heat and Cavs and loses against the Bucks and the Cavs... Continue Reading →
I told you guys last week that we shouldn't get too happy after taking the first series of the year against the St. Louis Cardinals. Well I think now we can get hyped, because what a week for the Mets. After winning two against the Phillies and sweeping the pain in the ass, always choke... Continue Reading →
