They will probably lead that league in strikeouts too :-) :-) :-)

That's it fellas...pile on.

Look at the bright side, how much worse can it get. After the last 3 yrs of thinking to myself that this could be the year I have no expectations for this year. So anything besides EVERY player getting injured will be a positive.

WSJ is reporting that the mets will face additional allegations in the Madoff scandal.
The new allegations are expected to raise the amount of money already being sought by trustee Irving H. Picard. It is reported that he is currently seeking over 1 Billion dollars.

Not the Mets facing allegations....the Wilpons facing allegations!!! :-) :-) :-)

What happens if the Wilpon's have to declare bankruptcy? Does the team go belly-up or do they simply get sold?
jonumberone 10:25 AM 03-03-2011
From what I read Dave the Mets.......I mean Wilpons (sorry Mac :-) ) are not broke.
The problem they have is that most of their money is not liquid and is tied up in Real Estate.
If they need cash, they have to sell a building, and that takes time.
It is possible that creditors will simply seize their real estate holdings.
Dave128 10:27 AM 03-03-2011
Thanks. I was really hoping they would have to sell the team! The Mets nead some drastic help. New owners would be a good start.
BigAsh 10:38 AM 03-03-2011
I just read that trustee Irving H. Picard is seizing Carlos Beltran and Ollie Perez knocking $7.46 off of what the Wilpons owe....you read it on the internet (here) therefore must be true... :-):-)
Humpdebump 02:53 PM 03-03-2011
Great, now Perez pitches two scorless innings. Brass will start thinking he's got his stuff back and that theres hope instead of cutting him.
jonumberone 10:46 AM 03-07-2011
Reports are surfacing stating by the start of next season the plan is to cut the Mets $140 million payroll in half. :-)

Beltran sits next game after being sore from DHing, and then some people wonder why he gets the criticism.

It's spring training!
If he's not right should he push it and miss games that matter?
Reyes has milked more injuries than anyone else on that team, yet the majority of Met fans still consider him un-tradeable!
Beltran has had more big hits than Wright and Reyes combined :-)

Dude...you must be bored.....:-)

Haha, I am bored but it seems every year he has some kind of small injury that seems to effect him all year and always says he's not 100 %. I know spring training has just begun but it kin of gets old. When and if he's heathy he could be a monster but it's always something. As for Reyes, can I start a new thread :-)

Enough Mets Bashing for one day fellas.
Humpdebump 11:25 AM 03-08-2011
Beltran out 3 - 4 days with knee tendenitis. Yes, I'm a little disgruntled Met fan today. They're also going to see if Perez can be a $12 mil. situational pitcher.
