Well look on the bright side, Mac . . . the NBA's not far away, so you can start rooting for the Bobcats or the Wizards. :r

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Mets drop one to the Phillies 3-1. Dickey pitched well but the offense has been absolutely non existent in the past two weeks. So much for Dickey getting 20 wins this year...the lethargic offense has done zero to support him. And down goes any chance of the Cy Young. If we can't get up for the Phillies and the thought of dropping them under .500 and ruining their playoff chances then we really area dead. It's time like these when it is SO FRUSTRATING to be a Mets fan.:bh :bh :bh

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Mets signed a two year deal with the Las Vegas 51s' of the Pacific Coast League. Buffalo Bisons decided not to renew their agreement with the Mets...can you blame them? Just another reason how Mets management is killing this franchise. :td :td

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

C'mon brother, there's PLENTY of reasons to be FRUSTRATED!! :D

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

It's been an extremely long season.

Too long!! :bh :bh

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Bullpen strikes again..giving up a two run HR to Howard in the top of the ninth as we lose to the Phillies 3-2. This season is officially over for me...I'm done watching. :td :td :td :td :td

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Still not on the bottom yet!

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Mets Sweep the Marlins at home!! All is still not lost!! On top of that, Dickey has a shot at 20 wins! What an awesome season!

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Still not at the bottom. :wo :wo My idea of a successful season was as long we didn't finish in the cellar...and that still holds true. So, we still have a little hope left.

While I believe Dickey should get a lot of consideration for the NL Cy Young award as he is in almost every pitching category top 3, and still has a slight chance for the pitching Triple Crown. I truly believe he will not get the votes because he plays on a losing team, which is total BS...but it is what it is. Just as he was shunned at the All Star game...he should have started that game, PERIOD!!

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Dickey should have started the All Star game IMO. Also, not sure he would win Cy even if the Mets were winning, just my thought.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I think you're totally off base here!
If this was a race for the MVP, you might have a point.
The Cy Young, especially of late, usually goes to the best pitcher in the league, regardless of the teams record.
In 2010, King Felix won the AL Cy with a W-L record of 13-12, playing for a Seattle team that went 61-101.
Dickey may lose the Cy Young, but it won't be because he plays for the Mets.
Unlike Verlander last year, he has legitimate competition for the award.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

With Cueto, Gonzalez, Kershaw as the primary candidates (all on playoff bound teams) Dickey will not evercome these three (wait til the votes are released). While Chapman, and Kimbrell have been thrown into the conversation, I don't feel the Cy Young should go to the top reliever...they already have an award the Rolaids Relief Man Award. But Chapman and Kimbrell will gather voters for the CY Young...and lots of them according to sports reporters.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I'm with Dom here. Honestly its between Gio Gonzalez and Dickey. They both have been great all year, I think if Dickey gets to 20 wins he has a very good chance of winning it. 3 complete game shutouts, tons of strikeouts, better era, but with Gonzalez having 20 already, I think Dickey has to get to 20 in order to win the award.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I realy hope you guys prove me wrong. :D

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Another win??!! The Mets are finally making their playoff run!
