Are you suggesting they sign Jonah Hill?

He's skinny now! :tu

Would that also mean Philip Seymour Hoffman as manager? Hell, he likely couldn't do much worse than The Sage, Jerry Manuel. ;)

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I should have mentioned, the character played by Jonah hill is supposed to be Paul DePodesta.
He didn't care for the way he was being portrayed and asked them not to use his name.
DePodesta is currently vice president of player development and scouting for the New York Mets.
I don't think he needs to see the movie! :D

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I actually think they want to hire Jonah Hill for second base. Got to be better than Murphy, no?

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

You mean to PLAY second base, or to BE second base? :D

My mother in law grew up down the street from Shea. So, last night, she says, "Hey, I saw that John Franco made it to the Hall of Fame."

So, I said, "Well, the Mets Hall of Fame." She said, "Oh" in the familiar tone that meant, "that's not very difficult."

Mets signed infielder Matt Tuiasosopo to a Minor League contract. Once Seattles #1 prospect...another can't miss for the Mets. :bh :bh

My, how the mighty have fallen!

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

My Mets have done absolutely nothing to better the team for 2012...NOTHING!!! :bh :bh

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Didn't they move the fences in a bit? That ought to cut down on triples . . . and pulled hammies. :r

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

:r :r True...but that benfits both teams, not only my Mets.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

It's gonna be a sad, sad season.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

This has got to be the most uneventful off-season in Mets history. Nothing to talk about.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I wonder if the Spanks will make a play for Wright? I'd hate to see him go, but imagine this: move A-Rod to DH and give Wright a chance at a ring while he's still a decent player.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Hmmmm. I'm not sure about Wright, as he's not seemed to live up to his early potential. I'm not sure he's a meaningful upgrade at third, since A-Rod's far from a stiff there, and I am sure he's not necessarily an upgrade at the plate, as he's "slipped" nearly as badly as has A-Rod . . . and from a lesser height. And I'm pretty sure A-Rod's ego would not let him agree peacefully to being "demoted" to DH, and Girardi doesn't need problems like that in the clubhouse. Still, it's an interesting thought.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Dave...Wright in pinstripes?? Wash your mouth out with soap. :bh :bh
