I have been a Mets mini-plan holder since 2002.  When the Mets moved into Citi Field last year, I decided to purchase a second mini-plan.  I will not be renewing my seats next year because my better half has a full season ticket package and we plan on splitting those tickets in 2011. When I first became a mini-plan holder, I was thrilled to have tickets to so many games in the same seats.  After [...]

It’s September 7th and the Mets are no where near contention for a playoff spot. With the season winding down and no playoff birth in site, this is where the Mets and their fans begin to look at the off season. One task the Mets’ new GM will have this off season is to unload Oliver Perez and his awful contract. The problem is Perez has no trade value, and Jerry Manuel has done nothing [...]

Good Morning, Mets Faithful, Are we there yet? Prime example: Johan wants to pitch. Johan can pitch. Jerry Manuel says, “It’s not in the best interest of the organization to push him at this particular point.” That could be the mantra for a lot of players on this team at this point in September. So the younger generation is primed to take a run at roster spots and an edge in the mind of the decision [...]

We are sorry for the interruption but today we bring you back to your regularly scheduled day game. The Mets play the 12:30 game today as they look to build off of yesterday’s win featuring young Starter Dillon Gee. Today, the Mets will be looking for Dickey to bounce back from his last start as they take on Livan Hernandez and the Nationals. Dickey just wasn’t that good in his last outing as he allowed [...]

Think back to that first car you owned. Wont it always have a special place in your heart? Remember all the great memories and the feeling of freedom that came with it. Cruising around with your friends, stereo blasting. Driving a bit too fast, too reckless. Finding that one special dimly lit place to make out with your favorite girl. Then it all begins to change so slowly at first that you don’t even notice. [...]

* * * Metsmerized Fan Post * * * Last summer I was unemployed and wasted a great deal of time flipping channels in the early afternoon. One day, in late August, I found SNY airing a “Mets Classic” from 1991 against the Phillies. Howard Johnson was coming to the plate, men in scoring position, two outs, late innings. 1991 you’ll remember was one of HoJo’s better campaigns, where he hit 38 home runs, drove in [...]

The last two days typified the season in that it was a blowout win followed by a blowout loss. Two opposite ends of the spectrum. Good and bad. It has been that way all season. Consistency, but in a mediocre way. Mike Pelfrey has become a serious concern. It was disappointing to see Mike Pelfrey’s performance. He’s been great for an extended period, then lousy for a time, seemed to turn it around and now has [...]

There’s some good news and there’s some bad news about Oliver Perez.  The bad news is he’s under contract for the 2011 season.  The good news is that 2011 is the last year of Ollie’s contract.  2010 is done for the not so amazin’ Mets.  Hopefully 2011 will be better for the Mets.  The Mets have a lot of questions next year and one big question is what will be done with Oliver Perez. Perez [...]

Major League Debut Derby. The Mets and the Nationals play game two tonight after last night’s romp via young prospect Espinosa who exploded at the plate vs the Mets. Tonight will feature the Major League debut for both starting pitchers. On the Amazin’s side, 24-year old Dillon Gee gets a shot to show if he has the goods to be a starter in the Majors and for the Nationals, they will show off their recent [...]
