(bumped from fanposts. --eric) With the 2009 season done and over, it's time to start handing out hardware. I present to you the first annual Gangsta and Grission Awards. Some of the categories had very tight races, while others were as one-sided as the Imperfect Game. The votes are in, however, and all winners receive as a way to remember their achievements, a Golden Jerry. Most Gangsta Injury Jonathon...
In a post to Amazin Avenue, James Kannengieser looks in to the Yankees stats from this season, and concludes: “The goal is to score more runs than you allow… Home runs are not evil and pitching alone does not win championships.” This was essentially my argument, here, when defending Daniel Murphy… or, at least defending [...]
Chris G sent me the following e-mail: “Can the Mets possibly stick with Luis Castillo for one more year and put Daniel Murphy in Triple-A for an entire season to learn second base? They can then resign Carlos Delgado at first base, and, either by the end of 2010 or Opening Day 2011, [...]
In a post to Ted Quarters, SNY’s Ted Berg offers up thoughts on Daniel Murphy, and how the team and fans need to proceed when thinking of the future. According to Berg, it’s about patience, and, “The Mets need to take their time assessing Murphy, Murphy needs to take more pitches at the [...]
The ripping of Cole Hamels continues. This is like what we did to Beltran, except to the extreme. Meet the Mets Want to see what all the hype is about with Ike Davis? Well, you'll get your chance on Saturday as the MLB Network will broadcast the AFL's Rising Stars game. Mike Newman of Scouting the Sally has video and nice words about Met pitching prospect Kyle Allen . Ted Berg asks "Can Daniel...
Take this post for what it is, subject to change and wishful thinking. I intended this plan to be realistic in the sense that all the trades and signings are possible, but not realistic in that I think it's what the Mets will actually do--that's another post for another time. So without further ado: The Major Moves: Sign Matt Holliday to a 6/$110 Million contract, starting salary $17MM--Maybe he will...
Daniel Murphy tries hard. He plays hard. He works hard. He hustles all the time. He puts himself ahead of the team. He is willing to play anywhere, anytime. He doesn’t complain. He doesn’t say much at all, really. And he is a Product Of The Farm System. So as a Mets fan it’s hard [...]
John from Metstradamus, in his continuing series titled “What Have We Learned'”, discusses Daniel Murphy and that fans should “Leave Murph Alone!!!” Andrew over at The ‘Ropolitans counts the Mets out of the Aroldis Chapman sweepstakes, saying “the Mets have too many other things to deal with.” However, Mr. North Jersey over at the Real Dirty Mets [...]
A few links to browse while you recover from last night's 13-inning marathon in the Bronx.... The New York Post's Joel Sherman has a plan for the Mets' rotation: take advantage of spacious Citi Field by pursuing fly ball pitchers instead of the ground ball pitchers that everyone else will covet. Sherman's ideas include Jeremy Guthrie, Gil Meche, and Ervin Santana. Adam Rubin at the New York Daily News...
One of the things that made Topps' 2009 flagship product such a critical success this year, but has gone mostly unheralded because of its position on the back of the card, is the bevy of interesting stats Topps included in an arching graphic on the back of each card. I'd like to share something interesting from each card in this pack of 2009 Topps Chrome (retail). 207 Mike Hinckley (RC) - According...
According to Adam Rubin his sources believe that the Mets will look to fill the power void with a left fielder through free agency while trading for a right handed 1B to platoon with Murphy. This appears to be a result of the market along with the emergence of Ike Davis. The market has several quality left fielders, lead by Matt Holliday and Jason Bay, who if your willing to pay would be a great addition...
It was bad enough seeing the Yankees dispose of the Twins on TBS, but at least I wasn't listening on ESPN radio. Squawker Lisa tells me that she heard, via Fire Joe Morgan's KenTremendous , that Jon Miller said Derek Jeter must have had a "third eye" to spot Nick Punto failing to stop at third when Jeter fired the ball to Jorge Posada, who then threw Punto out at third. So Jeter is not simply...
An Angels - Rockies World Series sounds nice but I think Major League Baseball would disagree. Meet the Mets Ken Rosenthal reports that Bobby Valentine might return to Japan to coach. The Yokohama Bay Stars are very interested. Paulie Walnuts Lo Duca is being sued for allegedly not paying a stud fee to the owners of his horse's lover. Matt at Metsblog notes that Cliff Floyd was released by the Padres...
I would never go as far as to say I'm rooting for A-Rod but it's satisfying on some level to watch him shut up braindead Yankee fans and members of the media. Here are this week's links: Take Me Back To April - Our hopes and dreams for the season generally didn't pan out. Alomar, Shines, Alicea Out; Warthen, Johnson In - It was all Luis Alicea's fault! The 2009 Mets Also Won "Best Picture"...
Joe D from Metsmerized Online feels that Daniel Murphy is the “poor man’s Eddie Kranepool”. Meanwhile, Sam Page over at Amazin’ Avenue feels that free-agent-to-be Hideki Matsui is out of line with the Mets stated priorities this off-season. Ken Davidoff in Newsday doesn’t think either J.P. Ricciardi or Kevin Towers addresses the Mets Front-Office weaknesses. Jason, from...
