After the dance, it’s now settled, Billy Wagner will be a Red Sox for two players to be named. Wagner changed his mind and decided to waive his no trade clause. The Red Sox agreed to decline his option for next year so he can go on his quest to close games again. Red Sox [...] more... 
These infatuations with over hyping injuries that aren’t are really a waste of everyone’s time. I understand we need to be overly cautious with Johan, but let’s see how this plays out before assuming who is or isn’t pitching on opening day. For those that haven’t noticed, it’s only MARCH 4th. Opening day is over [...] more... 
Looks like this offseason is basically about seeing if Omar can trade for a closer (Jenks, Putz, Street, Sherrill) in addition to signing one of the many options on the FA market (KRod, Wood, Hoffman, Fuentes). When we signed Wagner, we paid top dollar for a high caliber rack. When Billy went down, it was [...] more... 
Thinking about the loss of Billy Wagner, for perhaps forever, makes me almost want to write off the season. A loss of a crucial cog while already being a team still grasping for its identity— just feels like, sure, we could make the playoffs, but we can’t win the big one with our current state [...] more... 
In an interview with Marty Noble, Billy Wagner talks about the state of the Mets and he isn’t happy. Not with Willie. Not with Omar. Not with anybody.

From Doug Sisk to John Franco to Greg McMichael to Billy Taylor to Armando Benitez to Jorge Julio to Ambiorix Burgos [...] more... 
What do you want from us? What do you expect to hear? After getting Punk’d by the Braves, now this. Billy Wagner blowing saves. Carlos Beltran striking out looking in a clutch situation, again!!!! What do you want? We can’t do it. Not tonight. We’ll start showing some fight as soon as the 2007 Mets [...] more... 
Did you know the Mets were recently featured during the “Top Ten” segment on The Late Show with David Letterman? Me either. Adam Rubin on his Mets blog has the top ten: THE “LATE SHOW” TOP TEN“Things You Never Knew About the New York Mets” 10. Catcher Paul Lo Duca: “Team forfeited Sunday’s game because [...] more... 
While Jose Reyes, Carlos Beltran, David Wright and Carlos Delgado continue to suck ass, there is one bright spot on the Mets. It’s L-Millz. L-Millz hustles, and hits with runners in scoring position. It’s the L-Millz and Shawn Green second half. Moises Alou better get off his ass if he wants any hope of playing [...] more...
