It’s been said that all good things must come to an end. I guess that applies to winning streaks too. You didn’t really think we were gonna go 162-0 did you? OK, so did I. By now you all know we lost today 5-3. It was a tough game that could have gone either way. The weather definitely had an effect on the results. It was 45 degrees at game time and the 21 mph [...]

  This Weeks Roster Moves After an Amazin’ series versus the defending world champions, the Mets arrived in Atlanta looking for more. The Mets made small moves, if you want to call it small, over the past week. Actually, they only made like two or three roster moves from the last update. With that said, here they are: Mets placed Guillermo Mota on the restricted list. He is currently serving a 50-game drug suspension. The Mets [...]

Yesterday afternoon, Mark Hale of the New York Post, shared some of his insights with me over the phone about the New York Mets.

This is the second part of the interview. The first part was posted earlier today. * * [...]

Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that the Mets would start the 2007 season with an opportunity to sweep the World Champion Cardinals, and to do it on the road. The final game of the three game series, falls on the shoulders or should I say arm, of John Maine. Maine had a terrific spring and had a few impressive outings last month, but alas those games didn’t count, and tonight’s contest [...]

Orlando Hernandez will take the mound tonight against the Cardinals after a day off yesterday. El Duque had a very impressive performance in his final spring training tune-up and I would suspect that he is up for the task. I’m still all tingly from crashing the Card’s flag raising party on Sunday. When I looked at the box scores last night I couldn’t help smiling when I saw that the Phillies got beat in their [...]

I must say that yesterday was quite a great day to be a Mets fan. No, we didn’t win any pennants or a fifty pound gold trophy with a bunch of little flags that go around it. It was a great day because our beloved team took the field and absolutely shined last night in St. Louis. It was a pleasure to see the Cardinals and their fans get some dirt kicked in their faces, [...]

  A weekly roundup of all the Mets transactions, Minor League news, and latest rumors. This Weeks Roster Moves Willie Randolph had a big decision to make Friday afternoon. Only two spots remained on the Opening Day roster and Lastings Milledge, Chan Ho Park, Jon Adkins, and Ambiorix Burgos were all fighting for these spots. The Mets kept Lastings Milledge and Ambiorix Burgos, resulting in the demotion of Chan Ho Park and Jon Adkins.  In addition [...]

I guess Duaner Sanchez won’t have to worry about being on time for team meetings and early morning practices anymore, after being diagnosed with a hairline fracture on his pitching shoulder today. Sanchez had been shutdown after complaining of a pop sound in his shoulder and tingling in his arm. He was sent for an MRI yesterday and they confirmed the results today. According to Omar Minaya, he will be out at least until August [...]
