THE OMAR MINAYA PRESS CONFERENCE: A LITTLE SONG, A LITTLE DANCE, A LITTLE SELTZER DOWN YOUR PANTS
By Steve Keane at 26 August, 2010, 9:33 am
At this point in the Mets season, my mood has gone from outrage to amusement. The outrage was over the start of the second half of the season when the team decided it was time to pack it in, the amusement is listening to players and the GM tried to tell us the team is [...]

By Steve Keane at 14 August, 2010, 11:19 am
If I worked in the Mets payroll department, when it’s time to cut the players paychecks, I would put Robert Allen Dickey’ name on the check for Ollie Perez and put Perez name on Dickey’ digits. Obviously OP has no shame or is just as ignorant as we Mets fans make him out to be, [...]

By Steve Keane at 7 August, 2010, 8:18 am
My biggest problem with Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel is neither of these two challenge any of their players publicly. I’m not saying it’s the right thing to do but desperate times call for desperate measures.   The cool, calm way is just not working and Jerry trying not to throw anyone under a bus in [...]
Read More >>OK, SO NOW WHAT?
By Steve Keane at 1 August, 2010, 11:54 am
Adam Rubin on ESPN NY has a fine column today that sums up the State of the  Mets organization and the non-moves at the trade deadline to a tee. Some excerpts that intrigued me are: The reality is the Mets are not legitimately in a race right now. They entered Saturday trailing the division-leading Atlanta [...]

By Steve Keane at 23 July, 2010, 9:36 am
Jeff Francoeur, “Frenchy†to his fans and teammates has always portrayed himself as a man of the people, a guy the MSM loves as he fills a notebook with great quotes, and a teammate to die for. But in reality, Francoeur is just another selfish guy whose true colors come out when times are tough. [...]

By Steve Keane at 28 June, 2010, 8:36 am
Attention Mets Fans: Today is Primary Day for Howard Megdal’ run for General Manager of the NY Mets. This is an unprecedented run for office but then again no one of with the impeccable credentials of Howard Megdal has ever thrown his blue Mets cap into the ring.
Think of the some of the former GM’s [...]
Keep Pagan In The Mets Ring
By Joe McDonald at 23 June, 2010, 11:32 am
New York – Go figure the game of baseball. On the night New York Mets outfielder Angel Pagan ties a career game high in hits, four, there is talk that soon he could be one of the Mets outfielders out of the equation when Carlos Beltran returns to the lineup. Prior to their game Tuesday [...]

By Joe McDonald at 14 June, 2010, 3:37 pm
Just because Roy Oswalt told a friend he would accept a trade to the Mets doesn’t mean he’s in Manhattan on the off-day looking at apartments.
Depending on what “friend” you talk to, Oswalt would also accept trades to Philadelphia, St. Louis, the Yankees and Washington Nationals. However, if it means getting out of Houston, a chance at [...]
RANDOM ACT OF RANTING
By Steve Keane at 4 June, 2010, 10:09 am
Time for some random samplings when complete thoughts just won’t do:
I’m surprised President Obama hasn’t announced that Jim Joyce will be given the Medal of Honor for showing such bravery for fucking up Aramando Galaraga’ perfect game. Sure it’s great that Joyce admitted to this major screw up and it’s admirable that Galaraga gave Joyce [...]
ROAD KILL
By Steve Keane at 3 June, 2010, 10:40 am
Where to begin with another losing road trip, tons of Mets road kill all around so lets hit it:
Johan Santana threw his heart and soul into yesterday’s game. It wasn’t pretty but like I’ve said before, sometime the game where your pitcher doesn’t have his best stuff and still finds a way to be effective [...]
