Mets beat the Phillies today, 3-2. Nothing like ending the season series against the Phillies with a SWEEP!!! Now we're tied with them for 3rd place in the NL East.

Wilfredo Tovar goes 2-4 in his MLB debut. I know you're asking who??? So am I.

kelmac07 · 09-24-2013, 05:12 AM

Mets drop one to the Red in 10 innings, 3-2. That glorious bullpen strikes, yet again!!

kelmac07 · 09-25-2013, 05:29 AM

Mets beat the Reds last night, 4-2 and maintain 3rd place.

kelmac07 · 09-25-2013, 01:34 PM

Mets beat the Reds, 1-0, in a pitchers duel (each team had four hits). I'll take two out of three for a series win any time against a playoff team anytime.

And Juan Centeno throws out Billy Hamilton for his first caught stealing.

The Poet · 09-28-2013, 12:09 PM

Yankees give the Astros their 109th loss of the year last night, and moved Houston's 3-year total to 322 losses. This is good enough to insure the 'Stros of fifth-place in big league history over 3 seasons, and with 2 games left they have a chance to surpass or tie the 4th-place 1940-42 Philly Phillies (323 Ls) and the 3-rd place 1915-1917 Philly Athletics (324 Ls).

But don't worry. The top two spots are still secure, with the 1962-64 Mets top-bottom mark of 340 losses, and the 1963-65 Mets 332 Ls.

Amazin', amazin', amazin'. Congratulations. The records are safe another year . . . at least.

kelmac07 · 09-28-2013, 06:13 PM

Bullpen pisses another one away today. A win would have guaranteed us a share of 3rd place in the NL East. Hoping for a Phillies loss.

kelmac07 · 09-29-2013, 03:14 PM

Mets come from behind to beat the Brewers today. 3-2.

Finish the season 74-88 and ALONE in 3rd place in the NL East...above the Phillies and Marlins (Hey Phillies...SUCK IT!!!

) I said anything above a last place finish would be a nice season for this team. Had the bullpen not been half as bad as they were, we might have finished .500. Alderson has some work to do in the off-season. We need a 1B that can hit, outfield is very suspect, pitching staff needs work and the bullpen needs a complete overhaul. I'm banking on the Wilpons handcuffing him with the checkbook. We'll see. Here's to looking forward to the 2014 season.

kelmac07 · 09-29-2013, 05:58 PM

Eric Young Jr. wins the NL stolen base title by stealing two bags on the last day of the season. We gotta celebrate every victory we can (as there weren't many this year).

And, once again, SUCK IT PHILLIES!!

Dave128 · 09-30-2013, 10:55 AM

WooHoo!! A win for the final game of the season and lone third place.....I'll take it. And as Mac stated - SUCK IT PHILLIES!!

kelmac07 · 10-02-2013, 05:29 AM

Nice to see Marlon Byrd contribute to the Pirates HUGE win last night.

BigAsh · 10-02-2013, 07:02 AM

Nice season Mets....3rd place with a double A outfield is a win...

kelmac07 · 10-05-2013, 07:53 AM

After all the BS and contemplating....looks like Harvey is gonna have Tommy John surgery. So, with him out for the 2014 season...need someone to pitch that's worth a sh*t. Get to work Alderson!!

And all this talk of re-signing Johan for one year...COME ON MAN!!! The man pitched like 4 innings the past two years and you paid him an a$$load of cash. WAKE UP!!!

Dave128 · 10-07-2013, 01:26 PM

I hope some useful changes are made during the off season. We sure could use a nifty pitching staff.

kelmac07 · 11-18-2013, 06:50 AM

Ruben Tejada's agents are considering filing a grievance over the New York Mets' timing of the shortstop's September call-up, which delayed his free-agency eligibility from after the 2016 season until after the 2017 season, Yahoo! Sports has reported.

Really? He wants to become a free agent that bad? He is lazy and doesn't put in the extra work...he hit like .202 this year. His glove was supposed to be his calling card and that didn't work out too well either. Not sure many teams out there want a light hitting, lazy shortstop. I say release his sorry a$$...but who else do we have to play SS?

Dave128 · 11-18-2013, 09:15 AM

A-Rod will most likely be available........

(note: if that ever happened, I'd have to find a new team to root for)

kelmac07 · 11-19-2013, 05:28 AM

Hawkins signs a deal with the Rockies...sad to see him go. Even though he's old as dirt, he proved to be our best option out of the pen last year.

kelmac07 · 11-22-2013, 05:19 AM

Fans lined up as early as 5:30 a.m. for the Mets' open auditions to sing the national anthem on Opening Day 2014.

Hey...gotta have something to look forward to on opening day.

kelmac07 · 11-22-2013, 11:38 AM

Chris Young?? Really?? He had a terrible few years in Oakland. Another past his prime veteran. At least we didn't sign him to a multi year deal.

kelmac07 · 11-24-2013, 05:52 PM

I really thought we were gonna go after Jhonny Peralta. Card just signed him to a 4 year, $ 52 million deal. I didn't think he'd get that much after the steroid thing. Guess we're gonna go after Drew. Just what we need...another "all glove-no bat" shortstop. But hey...anything's better than Tejadas lazy a$$.

Secret Santa · 11-24-2013, 06:25 PM

Santa wishes he could deliver some outfield help for the Mets
