It wasnt. But do you have a better closer around than Krod? It’s 17M, but that didnt used to faze the Wilpons. Now it does.

Thank You for your time with the Mets. Good luck with the Brewers.

So if we get nothing back from him, what would you prefer, we keep KRod and pay him $17.5M for 2012? Seriously?

I assume that in your private life you buy a new Hyundai every year for $70,000, because it’s a smart way to manage your budget.

A stupid contract is a stupid contract, regardless of whether you are in NY or Pittsburgh. For some reason, Met fans think that giving out stupid contracts to KRod, Beltran, Wright, and Reyes are mandatory, because we’re in NYC, and we have to be stupid. The fans deserve the Mets to be stupid with their money, right?

Gamel? I doubt it but who knows

They have to be minor leaguers since Milwaukee plays in the NL with the Mets (if AL team they could be big leaguers)

Yeesh! They have one fucking lousy system! I can’t find more than one or two players that I would even want. There is one guy, a RHP they have at low A ball named Tyler Thornburg who looks pretty good. Otherwise……… forget it.

It was strictly for money, a paltry 5M more than they been paying him annually.This is something that didnt happen before Madoff. And it will probably happen again. We the Fans have been fu–ed by owners investment greed and stupidity.
