The Mets have lost 14 of their last 16 games at  home, and are 12 and 30 in their last 42 games. They are now officially worse than the 2009 team. Do you still think we are moving in the right direction? Joe Spector – It’s amazing what a difference a month makes in this game. Do we allow this to effect our overall view of where the team is going or not? Is the [...]

Terry Collins was introduced as the new Manager of the New York Mets on November 23, 2010. He signed a two year deal, with a third year option. At the end of the 2011 season, that option was picked up for the 2013 season. With the recent “collapse” of the 2012 team, how secure do you think Terry really is? Most of us fans would agree that he has done an outstanding job with this [...]

Mike Francesa was at it again today and went completely postal on the Mets today…. He lambasted them like I’ve never heard before…. “I would be afraid to show my face in public if I owned this team!” “Murphy and Thole are getting beat on 80 mph fastballs, you gotta be kidding me!” The Mets are 12-30 in their last 42 games. They are a bigger embarrassment than they were under Jerry Manuel.” “The Mets are [...]

With two player’s testing positive for Performance Enhancing Drugs in the past two weeks, it is as clear as ever that PEDs are still an issue with Major League Baseball. Nobody should be surprised about the two latest positive test results. I listened to an interview of a player not too long ago (the player’s name slips my mind right now), but he said at one point he believed that 90% of players were on some [...]

Two runs in the 7th inning off Garrett Olson led to a extra inning affair for the Buffalo Bisons and a late run off CJ Nitkowski in the 12th inning led to defeat as the Bisons fell 4-3 to Scranton Thursday night in Buffalo. The Bisons scored an early run in the 1st inning with a leadoff double for Fred Lewis and an RBI single for Brad Emaus to score Lewis and give Buffalo a [...]

The Binghamton Mets and Portland Sea Dogs pounded out a total of thirty one hits and scored twenty three runs between the two teams in game one of their four games series at Hadlock Field on Thursday night.  In the end the B-Mets were on the losing end of a fourteen to nine decision. Binghamton starter Cory Mazzoni lasted all of three innings in the game, making his shortest appearance as a B-Met in 2012.  [...]

Friday, August 24, 2012 • 7:10 p.m. Citi Field • Flushing, NY LHP Jordan Lyles (2-10, 5.70) vs. LHP Jon Niese (10-6, 3.49) Starting Lineup Ruben Tejada – SS Mike Baxter – RF David Wright – 3B Ike Davis – 1B Justin Turner – 2B Jordany Valdespin – LF Andres Torres – CF Josh Thole – C Jon Niese – P Well that last series wasn’t fun. There have only been two teams worse than [...]

How could anybody be anything but enthused about the Mets for 2013? With GA Sandy Alderson telling us the budget hasn’t been set but don’t expect it to be much higher than it is now. Then he said trades might be the way to go. But, if the Mets aren’t willing to part with Matt Harvey or Zach Wheeler, will they purge the rest of their farm system? History says it isn’t likely. A quick glance [...]

This is why we’ve been downplaying all these insane notions of bringing up Zack Wheeler in the last few months. As I said before, Collin McHugh is more deserving and more polished, and his debut today has validated everything we’ve been saying about him all season long. McHugh won’t figure into the decision, but his performance today was definitely deserving of a win as the young righthander tossed seven scoreless innings and allowed two hits, [...]

The rubber match and final game of the season between the Binghamton Mets and New Hampshire Fisher Cats went the way of the home team as the B-Mets won by a score of six to three. Binghamton jumped out to the early three run lead before watching the Fisher Cats claw their way back into the game.  After four innings the two teams were tied at three before the B-Mets scored single runs in the [...]
