Yea, we're fortunate that the Met's choke year after year. What's that say about the Mets then??? What I recall is those late season beatings that the Phils laid on you guys. The Phils and their fans want to win the division then take it all. That's all we want. If you really think we ONLY worry about the Mets then you think waaaaay to highly of your beloved team. Hate to break it to ya but the world does not revolve around NY and their crappy teams. Hey METS62FAN,

He had ONE good year and a few games here and there sprinkled in for a good measure. I do NOT have any more confidense in Pedro then I do with Livan or Tim Redding. Sorry folks - his best days are behind him. Signing him would be everything you are all screaming about that Omar has already done by getting OVER the hill, Past their prime players. Which is it folks............. HOW many chances does one player get? He had ONE good year and a few games here and there sprinkled in for a good measure.

The risk/reward analysis for Pedro doesn't appear that promsing. I think it comes down to affordability, and from everything we see, the Mets appear to be avoiding spending like the plague this year. However, he could be a big factor in the Phil's 2nd half. The Mets season is doomed unfortunately.

We dont need him to be an ace, just better than the pitcher he replaces. He is definitely an upgrade. Can Pedro be any worse than Tim Redding and Livan Hernandez?

And let me tell you somthing Pedro Martinez is above 500 hundred, and if he finaly sign with the phillies that will be headake for the Mets. I prety shure that Pedro will do a better job than Oliver Perze, Don't you thing same way? As the Mets goes right now any pitcher a litle be above of 500 hundred will be a great help for the Mets.

He was paid well and he was treated very well. What did we get back? 1 good year. So we owe him nothing....if anything I would think it would've been nice of him to give the Mets a discount if he wanted to pitch again. Fat chance. If he wants to sign with the Phillies than good luck to him. The Mets were MORE than fair to Pedro Martinez. He was paid well and he was treated very well. What did we get back? 1 good year.

We have serious issues because of injuries on this team right now and some would even consider signing him? It would be the same old same old. We need help and fast, but Pedro would not be the answer. That would just be a knee jerk reaction and when would he be ready? It would be weeks, we need help today.

If they just decided they cannot deal w/ him, then I always want to know the reason why. Should it turn out that Petey returns to a semblance of his old high-performing self, then certain heads maybe should roll.
