With all this shit there are a few bright spots..Pagan is quickly turning into a well-rounded professional ball player, hope he can stay healthy..and you know I must confess that I've gained major respect for Castillo..He has been growing on me ever since he dropped that ball at Yankee stadium..he stood up and took total responsibility like a man and since then shows up and plays hard every day..

agreed


3 homers and 15 rbi's for francoeur since being a met. yea like this was such a bad trade. very nice trade by omar.

interesting press conference by the mets yesterday...

Gary Carter

omar is a dumbass as usual. i swear i think this teams finds ways to fuck up and be in the media for all the wrong reasons. omar may have just sealed his fate as gm with that interview. he takes two steps forward and about 6 steps back. maybe adam rubin can get that front office job that he's always wanted with the mets.

i feel bad for rubin outta all this bs. hes actually a good writer.

Only the Mets, only the Mets....Only the Mets could take this somewhat positive situation of finally doing the right thing by firing this clown, and instead turn the organization into even more of a circus...I can't believe this motherfucker is the face of my team....the 'Message from Omar' email fans received really tops it all off....only the Mets..

Great win again last night..way to give us just enough false hope, thanks..

Another PR nightmare for the Mets, Minaya should be fired for this. I can only imagine the visual on this. I was listening on the radio on the way to a Brooklyn Cyclones game. But as long as they're keeping him they should get him a speech coach, he says uh and um way too much.

Not that the Mets are going anywhere, but it's also too bad this overshadows the fact that their last three games have actually been good.

But the Mets have always been this way, they're paranoid about the media on a level that's slightly worse than the Knicks in the Isiah Thomas era.

castillo was out by a mile. thats a fucking gift and i'll take it any day of the week. jim tracey had every right to argue that call.

I find it interesting that Wilpon is distancing himself from Omar, saying that he had no idea that the writer was going to be brought up..I don't believe it..hey whatever, just another disaster..

At least it didn't make a difference in the outcome. I can't believe we are winning games...Santana better bring his A game tomorrow....anyone else going to the game? Somebody put Pepsi Porch tickets up for $11 so I snagged a pair..lol...must have been a mistake..

I find it hard to believe that Wilpon didn't know what Minaya was going to say. Perhaps Minaya figured he is going to get fired and decided to go in swinging.

i don't even think omar knows what he's gonna say half the time. up until yesterday omar's job was safe for another year. now after the cheap shot on adam rubin i'd say omar is gone and honestly i wouldn't miss him one bit.

Go for it, there are some great deals on stubhub..sad but good for the buyer....yeah, the $11 Porch tickets for tonight were definitely a mistake as after my purchase the 6 remaining tickets in that row were quickly changed to $41..lol..have fun if you make it over..

Yeah, I now think it was all Omar..Jeff came across very sincere and genuine in his brief apologetic conference before the game last night..

Can't believe how good the Mets have looked this week. Real nice surprise. Still not expecting anything from this season, but its just really nice to see some good baseball finally. And Francouer has been hot! Can't expect that to stay when he's only gotten one walk, but I hope he can keep tearing it up for a while.

Phillies just got Lee without giving up any major leaguers and w/o giving up Happ or Drabek. This sucks. They just got a lot better.
