I have a feeling the Mets will do a serious overhaul...Willie will be gone, as with much of the coaching staff.

I also have a feeling Ricky is rubbing off on Jose...in the wrong way.

I think they should make a serious push for Girardi.

I really don't think Randolph is to blame. This is what happens when you spend money on over the hill pitchers.

IMO he did a bad job managing his bullpen.

Is he to blame for the Mets falloff? Partially, yes- everyone in the organization is to blame. I think Willie will not come back after this season, though.

One of the worst trades in recent history.

I think they're still paying Zambrano.

I don't know much about the Mets bullpen, but it seems the manager is always to blame for the bullpen. Leyland has taken a lot of criticism for the Tigers bullpen. In New York I guess you would get fired after back-to-back winning seasons. The Mets really need to overhaul their rotation. Glavine, Pedro, El Duque is not the answer.

The Carlos Guillen and Placido Polanco trades were bad trades.

nah Victor Zambrano was awesome!

Lemme find the name of the guy they traded Nolan Ryan for, who was it.. Jim Fergeysey or something like that

:edit: Jim Fregosi!

I think Glavine is gone. Pedro is nothing of what he used to be, and El Duque put together a good season, but I wouldn't count on him to repeat it next year.

Willie just kept brining in Mota, and everytime I watched him pitch, he blew up, costing the Mets several games. He was HORRIBLE, but kept getting called upon.

I think theyre still paying Mo Vaughn

Same thing with Grilli. I thought the Mets had a great bullpen last year? Detroit's excuse was that Zumaya and Rodney were injured.

Slammed, ***** about your Mets, but hey they let it go themselves. They need a decent bullpen IMO. Not so much about Randolph, but the shitty people they sign.

Indians baby! Of course we need to get past the Yankees. I hope it is different than in the season. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Was nice to see them tie up for best record in the league though.

 

[bigbangtheory 5,000+ posts]

Oh yeah, go Padres! I called back in the beginning that I would like to see Cleveland vs SanDiego. Rockies are playing like trojan warriors though.
