Alright, so my wall calendar says that Pitchers and catchers are 5 days away from reporting, and my Dad and I just bought a 15 game plan (looks like I'm only going to be able to go to 8-11 of them) and I'm excited for baseball to start!!
I think the Mets will win around 85 games. Hopefully Santana will be back by the All-Star Break, and screw the Madoff situation! This post has been edited by jburns: Dec 8 2011, 11:43 AM -------------------- Wade Redden is my hero, and shall be revered forever.

Its got to be better than a Braves fan. Like last year... Plus We're guaranteed to win at least 8 games, as I'm undefeated at Citi Field

I had a family member from Philly offer me a straight up bet that the Phils will win 20 games more than the Mets. I had to think about it. I don't think the Mets will even sniff 85 games. I'm guessing 75. That means the Phils have to win 96 (I said I'd make it 20-1/2). With the Braves in the division, that's a LOT of wins. Interesting bet that I'm not going to take, but it sparked a pretty in-depth conversation.

But either way I agree with Whoa....would of taken that bet in a heartbeat. Why would one think the Mets will win less games than last year? If Bay and Beltran can get back to their average numbers they should win more games. 85 is definitely doable and with some over achieving who knows. |

There's a lot of "ifs" about the Mets this season. Plus we don't know how some of these guys will bounce back from injuries. And it's not like Carlos Beltran is some spring chicken either. Being older and coming back from the injuries means he's going to be a step or two slower. We saw that already last season. And you can't count on Santana being the master of the universe returning from an injury.

Perez not giving up
Good. I'm glad someone finally lit a fire under his ass. I'm really fucking excited for Spring Training. After going to some workouts and some games two years ago I've always wanted to go back. I probably would with some friends if I weren't locked in for Crew for Spring Break. Its a great time to be a fan, because you know what ANYTHING can happen. I know I have a little more hope for this season than most people here, but I fucking love being a Mets fan. -------------------- Wade Redden is my hero, and shall be revered forever.

Do the Mets even need a thread this year? Don't we already have a "I hate" thread, and a "depression/I just got dumped thread", and a "Im feeling kinda bored" thread, and a "You've got to be effin kidding me" thread.

This thread is so funny. It's nice to laugh sometimes. Normally I come into the Mets thread and I just start breaking my fingers and looking for things to stick in my eyes, but not today!
OH NOT TODAY! Today it's tears of laughter, instead of pain. Ya know, from all the self flogging I do. |

QUOTE(SorryaboutthatWhoa @ Feb 15 2011, 10:49 AM) Yeahup. We stand around in the streets blindfolded beating our backs with spikes until it is nothing but pulp and blood. Hanging out outside of Citi-Field is basically no different from the Egyptian protests. We punch journalists and the NYPD comes in with hoses and tear gas. I routinely put on my Mets jersey and run over shards of glass and then pound the bottom of my foot with a hammer. Yeah I heard you guys do that.

QUOTE(Eric @ Feb 15 2011, 01:05 PM) Did the Mets fans all pour into the yankees and non-ny team threads? What did we do to deserve this? It's still early and it's all in good fun. -------------------- Home Plate Beer Kings Hockey Motto: "Win or lose we drink the booze!"

I am still hoping the team can be competitive until Sept but....
After thinking about it the theme this year will be... Let's all have great first halves so then we can trade you to the highest bidder...especially those guys on their last year of a contract!!  !

All over Twitter that the Mets officially are moving Beltran to right field. Pagan will play center.
I think it's good they got this out of the way now. -------------------- Behind the Press

So is Ollie P. going to be #3 or #4 in the rotation? They need a good $12 million dollar stud with an 84mph fastball.

Trying to rile up the Mets fans?
 I think I saw March 12thish as a deadline on Oliver Perez. He doesn't show something by then, he's gone. But, you know, he was in midseason form yesterday. -------------------- Behind the Press
