Splitting 2 of 4 isn't a series win!

(Edit: I guess it's a win for Met fans)

Don't jump the gun, Beltran may not be around to help you get the next 2!

Pelfrey and Capuanno aren't exactly aces!

kelmac07 · 07-27-2011, 05:52 AM

With this team...2 of 4 IS a series win.

Who? Is this a baseball player?

Then again, it could be argued that Beltran wasn't one either, at least for the Mets.

He is the Giants #2 prospect, 33rd best in baseball...but I still think the Mets got "hosed" on this deal. All we got was one unproven young pitcher? WTF was Sandy Alderson drinking?

Although I am glad to finally see Beltran leave town...the Mets got boned again!!

As the 33rd best prospect in baseball, he is ranked higher than any prospect in the entire Met organization.

Not sure what you wanted for a 34yr old, often injured, 2 month rental player!

Nothing wrong with acquiring young arms, especially when Mike Pelfrey is your #1 starter!

I wanted a couple throw in arms.

Greedy!

You got rid of Beltran, I thought that would be enough for you!
With Mccann and Chipper hurt, Santana getting close, I thought the Mets may shift gears, become buyers, and make a run athe wild card.
Guess not!

Wildcard? I don't think so... .500 is a more realistic goal. I am very happy Beltran is gone. Just wanted a bit more for him, since he was the "best" free agent on the market.

kelmac07 · 07-27-2011, 07:51 PM

Mets put it on the Reds tonight 8-2...Pelfrey pitches a complete game (he still sucks).

Dave128 · 07-28-2011, 08:38 AM

It wasn't his best performance. Beltran is gone. I hope the door doesn't hit him in the a$$ on the way out. He's had a decent season so far. Figures. this may be bad to say, but I hope he gets hurt and can't finish the season. This move will give Wright the perfect opportunity to step up and be the true leader of the club house.

kelmac07 · 07-28-2011, 08:42 AM

I don't wish Beltran to get hurt (god knows he stayed hurt enough with us)...but he was, in my opinion, a first cass douchebag and mostly for the way he handled the Walter Reed Visit a few years ago. Good riddance.

I agree 100%, i was just thinkin the same thing when i read your post.
Beltran is batting .289 with 15 homers, 66 ribbies.
I thought he was finally living up to his potential.
Even after being out for how long, 6 or 8 weeks.
The Mets are done now, i guess the Madoff effect.

I am not by nature a Met hater.
I just thought with Wright back, letting K Rod go would be enough.
Now the Giants are back in front.
I do love the team in the BronX.

Bullpen holds on to another as we sweep the Reds..

kelmac07 · 07-29-2011, 08:09 PM

Mets win their 5th straight...beating the Nats 8-5.
