Mets score 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th to beat the Giants last night, 5-4. No thanks to Harang...please release this goof!!!
:-)
:-) Bullpen pitched four innings of shutdown baseball. HOLY CRAP!! Black looked good again out of the bullpen to pick up his second win.

Almost forgot...the disappointing season for Ruben Tejeda finally comes to an end. He broke his right leg after colliding with Andrew Brown last night.

Mets drop one to the Giants this afternoon, 2-1. Offense stayed in the clubhouse for this one.
:-) :-)

Mets beat the Phillies, 5-4, in a rain shortened game today. I'll take a win against the Phillies any way we can get 'em.
:-) :-)

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.
:-) :-)

Mets drop one to the Red in 10 innings, 3-2. That glorious bullpen strikes, yet again!!
kelmac07 06:29 AM 09-25-2013
Mets beat the Reds last night, 4-2 and maintain 3rd place.
:-)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!! :-)

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 06:29 AM 10-02-2013
Nice to see Marlon Byrd contribute to the Pirates HUGE win last night.
:-) :-)
BigAsh 08:02 AM 10-02-2013
Nice season Mets....3rd place with a double A outfield is a win...
:-)

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 02:26 PM 10-07-2013
I hope some useful changes are made during the off season. We sure could use a nifty pitching staff.

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 10:15 AM 11-18-2013
A-Rod will most likely be available........
(note: if that ever happened, I'd have to find a new team to root for)

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.
