    So the Nationals are now favorites to sign Fielder. So in other words, not only are we going to suck, but we're gonna suck for the next 5 years. Great.

    Being a Mets fan really sucks. This owner needs to go, us fans dont deserve this. Weve been solid fanbase for many years, we come out and fill the seats when we are winning, hell even when we are losing theirs a good amount of people at the games compared to other stadiums.

    OK good, the Nationals didn't get Fielder. That would've sucked.

    I believe you will watch between 42 and 63 games. Some of them, let's say about 23-29, you will like.

    The Nats signed Edwin Jackson. I thought he would have been a good acquisition for the Royals East, but so much for that.

    So riddle me this....Mets own 65% of SNY who then buy 16% of the Mets.....

    Hmmm..ref 17a post...Harvey is the one who could see Major action this year but i am actually excited to see what Gorski does in Bing..his velocity was up last year and more than anything he strikes guys out..his changeup is meant to be off the charts.

    Oh and watch out for Zach Lutz..once Wright gets traded this kid if he can stay healthy is a Freese type guy according to some..he just needs to stay clear of the nicks he keeps getting

    Okay its that time of year when the dawning realisation kicks in how bad we could be and the fact that Rick Ankiel was our choice as back up LOF.

    This could be a long off season and season people..

    Was he with the Royals recently? So it is like he is with the same team.

    ESPN predictions has us at a 20% that we lose 100+ games and that we are the top 5 worst MLB teams this year.

    I cannot see a worse rotation or bench in the whole of baseball.

    Santana forget him, he will be an 88mph pitcher at best
    Pelfrey - 6 wins at best and god knows what ERA - traded mid season
    Niese-probabaly our best pitcher at least there is some upside - 8 wins 4.00 ERA as he will benefit from a slightly improved bullpen
    Dickey -our no1 which says it all..good honest pro and love his attitude but no way in the world is he a no1. he is a no4-5 in any other rotation
    Gee / Schwinden etc - this will be a revolving door til end of season when hopefully Harvey can step up

    Bench is fucking abysmal..turner, hairston , cedeno , torres etc......

    I cannot see us winning more than 65 games this year..if we do it will be a miracle

    FUCK THE WILPONS!!!!!!!!!

    I agree dude. This team will be a disaster to watch. I still don't get all the people that think Duda will be any good. He's going to bat 5th in this lineup? Good luck with that.

    Anyone read Alderson on twitter? I'm sure fatty will criticize him today for it, but I find it hilarious.

    Alderson is the one bright thing about this shitpile of a club....his twitter is very witty actually

    Ref the earlier comment on Duda..I will guarantee he does not finish season in RF..he has the closing speed of a rhino on dope
