If the pitching stays asleep all season...we won't challenge the Nats for 4th...we'll stay in the cellar.

I don't think there are any words to describe the Mets anymore Mac. It is going to be a long season for you.

Ryan..at this point...PISS ON HIM...bring someone up from AAA and let them give it a shot. Main has been CRAP that last two years.

The rookie Mejia looks damn good early...one of the few silver linings!!!!

And FIRE Omar NOW!!!

MedicCook · 04-13-2010, 10:05 PM

I agree they need to fire Omar. I have never liked him from day one. They would be smart to hire JP Ricardi the former Blue Jays GM.

I agree!!! Mets need some new blood in the front office.

JP is just hanging out at Baseball Tonight right now waiting for the right job to come along.

Watching it too.

Look at what he did the last few years with no payroll...imagine what he could do with some money in New York.

MedicCook · 04-13-2010, 10:12 PM

What I like about JP is he does not lok at the flashy stuff. He worries about OBP with his hitters and defense. Look at the 3 best teams in baseball the last few years. Yankees, Red Sox & Phillies. They all are great with OBP.

JP Ricciardi? Really? I think he did a terrible job in Toronto. He banged out one decent season winning season where they finished second, with a much expanded payroll than any of his predecessors. And this is the same guy who ripped on his fans for not wanting Adam Dunn, cause Dunn wasn't a gamer, and later totally mishandled Doc last year. He made a few decent free agent signings, but overall he was a flop in Toronto.

Mets should try to snare John Hart. Everywhere he goes he helps build a winning foundation.

If the Blue Jays were in the the AL Central or West they would have been in the race for a playoff spot. Having to play 56 games against the Yankees, Red Sox & Rays each year is not an easy feat.

But the Rays did it with a much smaller payroll and no big free agent signings. Maybe the Mets should try to tempt Andrew Friedman away from Tampa
