I came away quite impressed with both products. Bloomberg Sports is really making [...]

By Steve Keane at 10 August, 2010, 9:08 am
Not much in the way of Mets news but I guess we’ve all seen that Don Wakamatsu has been fired as Mariners manager,(but still has his career in Rap to fall back on) and Jerry Manuel lives on as the lamest of lame duck skippers. I see where Manuel now wants to sit Carlos Beltran [...]

By Joe McDonald at 26 July, 2010, 4:24 pm
About two months ago, I wrote about the dichotomy that was the New York Mets as Major League Baseball’s winningest team at home while collecting the major’s fewest road victories. Since that time, little has changed. The Mets have remained pretty strong at Citi Field, while cooling off just a bit there, going 11-7 since [...]

By Steve Keane at 20 June, 2010, 7:12 pm
Howard Megdal has challenged Steve Phillips to a debate on what makes a good General Manager but Phillips has declined the invitation to meet with Megdal and discuss baseball management issues in a public forum.

- The Mets won 4-3 behind the strong pitching of RA Dickey, who gave up three runds in 6-plus innings.
