*** Official NY Mets Our OFFSEASON Has Come Thread ***

[Mike Gallo]

To me, squashing home run celebrations doesn't really do that.

I agree, however it does show up the other teams.

we are who we are - but that's not a bad thing at all. we ran super [censored] this year at the end, but a few bullpen tweaks will have this team firing again.

This sums up every Met's season for the past 10 years.

Maybe if Reyes didn't do those dances NYM would be in the playoffs.

I think the poster means that Jose's dance woke the Marlins up and made them want to beat the Mets on the last day of the season.

the 86 mets showed everyone up

i hate to say this, but peterson should be fired. Sign Linebrink. Trade for a young but experience starting pitcher and more bullpen help

not much more we can do. Hope Glavine doesnt return.

Adding Pelfrey and Humber to the rotation does not solve our problems unless we think they can go 7 or 8 innings a start.

Glavine sucking balls >>>> Marlins incentive to beat the mets

so i think it was irrelevant

[Suigin406]

in other news...

glavine likely to decline his option and has until friday to decide

i guess this means he may go back to atlanta/retire coz there's no way he's getting paid that salary next year with any team...

same article went on to state that beltran had minor surgery on both knees...

also, with peterson, the more i think of it, the more i hope he doesn't get fired...it's a shame because his strengths are with young pitchers it seems and regardless, placing the entire pen's collapse on him is stupid anyway...

i really want to see him continue to work with pelfrey, who improved a bit at the end of the year and also work with humber...

maybe he's overrated and i can see the point, but it's worth noting the Big 3 in oakland fell off a bit after being separated from peterson and perez did not go from great to god awful back to decent by total luck...he also failed with some pitchers (zambrano, possibly pelfrey), but meh...

also, if he was gonna get fired, wouldn't it have already occurred by now??

They need to keep Peterson hes not the problem.

Why should the mets sign Linebrink? Didn't he implode this year?

Any chance the Mets go after Kent for 2B?

[metsandfinsfan]

Mets ERA was over 5 in september and almost 5 in august.

Maybe it is peterson's workout regimen. I dont know.

But we didnt fire Willie. Someone is going to have to take the fall. And hitting wasnt the main problem
