Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
I had forgotten about the Miserable Mets for awhile - you know, because they're not in the news making quality FA signings and any roster improvements.
Then my buddy (a Yankee fan) gives me this Christmas gift in anticipation of my first child being born in a couple of months. On the tie, it says "#1 Mets Dad". Would anyone want that title these days?

Hit the nail on the head with that statement.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
Carlos Pena would be a great fit at first base. Wake up Alderson!!

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
Is there any way they can skip playing this season and just work on the team for 2013?

It's a shame. Citi Field is a really nice venue (even moreso if you happen to be a 1950s Dodgers fan), but expensive. Really expensive when you think of the garbage they'll be trotting out this year.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
Maybe you should change the title to "Make Mac and Mase Yankees fans!"

Look on the bright side, fellas. Here on the 50th anniversary, they are doing their damnedest to bring back the 1962 Mets.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
What bout Ike? Must admit since I'm no longer a met fan I haven't been following. Is his rehab going poorly?

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
I just don't believe Ike is the permanent solution at 1B. His glove is fine, but he doesn't hit for enough power (HRs, RBIs, etc). Hell none of the Mets hit for power.

My folks were Brooklyn Dodgers fans. When the Dodgers moved, they didn't root for the Yankees or the Mets. Growing up, I watched both the Yankees and the Mets. I became more of a Mets fan probably because of Doc Gooden's nasty curveball, Straw's easy swing and Hernandez's mustache (just kidding, although it is still awesome). The Mets and Yankees never played each other (until the inter-league play started), so there was no reason to hate the Yankees. They weren't rivals.

Ike is 24 years old, a baby! In 183 career games, most of which were in cavernous Citi Field, he's hit 26 hr and driven in 96 runs. What in that sample leads you to believe he won't hit enough? The Mets should pray they find another 24 players just like Ike!!!
