Mets 2006-07 offseason thread

i agree, maybe we'll get lucky and he wont suck.

 

or maybe we wont get lucky at all

 

well considering thats what im expecting, i wont be let down

 

I heard it was $660,000 for Park.
whatever lets see what happens.

 

600k Plus incentives based on IP that could bring it up to 3.

 

Meh.... not a big move by the Mets. This offseason has been utterly disapointing.

 

A no lose situation. Dollar for dollar...it's superior to Zito.

 

The Mets have been quite all season. The only signings I really know of are

- Scott Schoeneweis
- Aaron Sele (Minor League deal)
- Ruben Siera (Minor League deal)
- [Some 18 Year old Aussie kid, who is going to school still]
- Chan Ho Park

That's all I know of. Great improvement by the Mets this off-season WORLD SERIES 07!!

:lol:

 

Don't forget the addition of Jorge Sosa (he is the king of the high ERA)

They also signed Moises Alou, surely you knew that but it's been such a long offseason you probably forgot.

 

Don't forget about Ambiorix Burgos, whom I believe will end up being our best offseason acquisition. (believe=hope, as usual)

I remember they signed Sosa, and I knew about Alou, but you were right, it happened so early in the off-season that I TOTALLY forget. Wow, it's been a loooooong off-season.

 

ST is almost hereeeeee

Minaya was brillient trading Benson. The AP has reported that Kris Benson will miss the 2007 season due to rotator cuff surgery.

 

Too many nights by himself after Anna and him split


Wow that is huge..... the addition of Maine very nearly put this team into the WS last year. He was an afterthought is that deal.....

 

Tom Verducci likes Oliver Perez in '07.
So Dr. Christian Troy likes Tom Verducci today.

Lets Go Mets

 

As you all already know, I co-host a 100% commercial-free, no one makes a dime from it, Sports Talk radio show on Long Island.

The other night, Mets beat reporter Adam Rubin (from the Daily News) joined us in-studio for 2 commercial-free hours of nothing but Mets talk. I'll post a list of all topics discussed, but that will take some time.

You can find the interview at
http://hosted.filefront.com/patchyfogg

Part 1 is 70 commercial-free minutes, and Part 2 is 50 commercial-free minutes.

Adam and other baseball writers will join us throughout Spring Training, so I'll be sure to post the interviews when

As always, thanks. And, I hope you enjoy.
