CAPSLOCK=DISABILITY ACCOMODATION
MURPHY’S BEST POSITION ON THE METS IS “THE PINE” AS A B/U 1B OR 3B & LH PHer. IF HE;S HANDED EVEN A SEMI STARTER 1B JOB WE’RE IN VERY, VERY BIG TROUBLE WHAT’S HIS UPSIDE FOR ‘10? IF U R EXTREMELY OPTIMISTIC 25HR MAX?
NO WHERE NEAR WHAT’S DESPERATLY NEEDED, A 40HR CLEANUP BOPPER & NONE AVAILABLE FOR LF! THINK THER’S A SP CAPABLE OF THAT? LMAO! CERTAINLY NO HUNDLEY,PIAZZA TYPES ANYWHEE IN MLB. SO IF NOT 1B, WHERE?

I have no reason to hope that a mets player does not do well. Reyes, Beltran and Wright all have to be question marks right now.

Well, I am not going to argue with someone who calls himself MetsGOD—but yes, I do happen to think that Reyes is a losing player. it has nothing to do with World Series. I think Arod is a loser. He just won one. Losers are guys who car emore about their personal performance than winning.

Hey Sarge, I never said I dislike Reyes or Beltran, or that they’re on the downside of their careers. Based on their injuries, I expect diminished production from them. I hope Reyes and Beltran go nuts. I want Jose to be playing out of his mind for his next contract. However, the reality is that neither have played as well as they did in 06. Moreover, they’re both coming off serious injuries that were not dealt with properly from the beginning. They’re far more likely to have average to diminished production than to all of a sudden find the fountain of youth and blow everyone away.

Hey when did you become a forecaster Shamik? Yeah, Beltran and Jose are going to suck because they are on the down side of their career. Yeah it doesn’t matter that Jose is playing for a contract extension or new one does it Shamik or did you forget that little detail in your Beltran and Reyes dislike rant?
Jose is going to have a great year as is Beltran and Pelf will have to play to earn the bucs, just as it should be.

do you have any proof that he is a loser? So, he’s never been on a world series winning team that makes him a loser? I guess in your eyes, Reyes is a loser too, and the only winner on this team is Francoeur.

I am sorry but i want no part f Delgado. First of all, the guy is a loser. Always has been. second, as much as I wanted Willie gone, Delgado laid down for Willie. The minute Willie left Delgado found his stroke. He can deny it all he wants. I do not believe in 38 home run coincidences. Aloha, CD.

What about Josh Beckett ? His contract is up after next year and will demand an extension and a contract like C.C Sabathia ( 7 years 160 million ) but will the Red Soxs give him that extension. He’s going to be flying up to Boston with in the next week or so. I think if they don’t give him an extension then we should go after him. Your probably saying we don’t have enough to get him but I think we do because people said we couldn’t get Santana and we did. Now I know we had more prospects to trade back then but I think if we include a package of Martinez,Holt,Neise and Thole I think we could get him. I know he would cost a lot but he’s better then Halladay. Let me know what you think

Carlos Delgado’s best days are behind him. I don’t care if he destroys the baseball. It counts the same as a dinker just making it over the fence. If distance past the fence means anything, let’s train some guys to reach the upper deck.

Delgado is one of poorer fielding first basemen. No thanks.

I’m not one of those who simply wants to retain aging potential HOFers, but we will miss big CDog if he’s healthy. God knows he’s a better 1Bman than Murph even at 38.

Since he doesn’t just hit homeruns–he destroys the baseball–I think he’s still on track for a good 35, even at CIti. And Mets will go w/ two mediocrities at 1st…that sucks.
