I'm too busy smiling, drinking beer and laughing at Yanks04 to formulate any cohesive thoughts.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey
TheYanks04 is a wise man. I've heard this same song and dance about the Mets a few times in the recent past. In 2002 they added Mo Vaughn, Robby Alomar and a highly touted Jeromy Burnitz among others - they won about 75 games. In 2003 they acquired Tom Glavine, Cliff Floyd and a few other players - they were predicted to win the NL East - they again won about 75.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....what?.......zz...WHAT??....the mets did what?.......yeah ok, that's nice......zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Wake me up when you actually do something aside from being the Washington Redskins of the NL East.

Hey, thanks. This wouldn't have been an official Mets thread without a whining Braves fan.

Wake me up when you actually realize that the Wilpon's aren't controlling the Mets anymore. It's like blaming the new Iraqi leader (name fails me) for what Saddam did. Two completely different things.
Wake me up when you take off your "Mets Suck because of a few bad signings" blinders and accept the fact that we're not going away.
Okay now I am so confused, Aren't the Mets that team last year that was 25 games out in the NL East? Were they not the same team that thought they had what it took last Spring and the Spring before and the Spring before after signing a lot of high priced guys?
What if Pedro's arm goes out like everyone seems to think it could on every pitch? What if Beltran hits .265 like last year but only hits 25 HR's?
I just don't see the big upgrade here. Sure it sounds nice, but the Yankees did much more by getting RJ. He is a stud, and again makes the Yankees the king of New York and most likely baseball.
As far as the Mets go, they are just trying to be noticed in their own town. Okay, time to go continue drinking now - good night.

Same team, many different players. Delgado ain't Mo Vaughn (and yes, I know Delgado isn't a Met- yet- but hypothetically). Beltran, as much as I think he is overpriced, is still a good player. Pedro is the best pitcher in baseball (don't disagree with me, I'm way too tired of arguing this).
RJ isn't Pedro. RJ is 42 and pitching off of a plastic knee. I see injuries or downfall this year.

What if Chipper retires tomorrow? What if the Braves don't win this year? What if you're just bitter? What if there's no point to talking about this?

Thanks for making us seem less bitter.
