They will probably lead that league in strikeouts too :r :r :r

That's it fellas...pile on.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Look at the bright side, how much worse can it get. After the last 3 yrs of thinking to myself that this could be the year I have no expectations for this year. So anything besides EVERY player getting injured will be a positive.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

WSJ is reporting that the mets will face additional allegations in the Madoff scandal.
The new allegations are expected to raise the amount of money already being sought by trustee Irving H. Picard. It is reported that he is currently seeking over 1 Billion dollars.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Not the Mets facing allegations....the Wilpons facing allegations!!! :r :r :r

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

What happens if the Wilpon's have to declare bankruptcy? Does the team go belly-up or do they simply get sold?

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

From what I read Dave the Mets.......I mean Wilpons (sorry Mac :) ) are not broke.
The problem they have is that most of their money is not liquid and is tied up in Real Estate.
If they need cash, they have to sell a building, and that takes time.
It is possible that creditors will simply seize their real estate holdings.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Thanks. I was really hoping they would have to sell the team! The Mets nead some drastic help. New owners would be a good start.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

I just read that trustee Irving H. Picard is seizing Carlos Beltran and Ollie Perez knocking $7.46 off of what the Wilpons owe....you read it on the internet (here) therefore must be true... :r:r

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Great, now Perez pitches two scorless innings. Brass will start thinking he's got his stuff back and that theres hope instead of cutting him.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Reports are surfacing stating by the start of next season the plan is to cut the Mets $140 million payroll in half. :O

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Beltran sits next game after being sore from DHing, and then some people wonder why he gets the criticism.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

:confused:

It's spring training!
If he's not right should he push it and miss games that matter?
Reyes has milked more injuries than anyone else on that team, yet the majority of Met fans still consider him un-tradeable!
Beltran has had more big hits than Wright and Reyes combined :2

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Dude...you must be bored.....:r

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

:D

Just seeing what life's like on the bottom! ;)

;s

:r

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

hahahahaha.....now THAT'S Funny!! :r

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Haha, I am bored but it seems every year he has some kind of small injury that seems to effect him all year and always says he's not 100 %. I know spring training has just begun but it kin of gets old. When and if he's heathy he could be a monster but it's always something. As for Reyes, can I start a new thread :D

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

What...... No it's not ;)

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Enough Mets Bashing for one day fellas.

Re: New York Mets 2011 Banter
 

Beltran out 3 - 4 days with knee tendenitis. Yes, I'm a little disgruntled Met fan today. They're also going to see if Perez can be a $12 mil. situational pitcher.
