Jonathon Niese pitched a gem today, but the bullpen blew ANOTHER lead and the Mets lost the game, 6-2. Game Notes Jonathon was great today, giving up one run on five hits in seven innings with seven strikeouts and NO walks. Johnathon was in the zone today, getting behind some hitters early today but finding a way to get them out consistently. If it wasn’t for a few longer innings, Jonathon...

My choice is Jason Bay because he hasn’t given the Mets the homerun power they thought they were getting. Bay, who turns 32 next month, is aging fast, and for $17 million dollars annually, the Mets may be looking at an albatross for the duration of his contract. When you consider his easily attainable...
Read MoreIts been a long time since my last post here on MMO, but it’s great to be back. I’ve been a Met since in 1973, I know there are those of you out there who go back even further tan I do, and I salute you.
