Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-09-05

I have a very sobering post coming to MetsBlog regarding Johan Santana's season at about 10:35 AM today. #mets # Actually, look for that post about Santana in the next couple of minutes. #mets # With contracts of K-Rod, Perez, Beltran, and Castillo, as well as the Bobby Bonilla free money fund, Mets problems might [...]

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-08-29

From @abadlani91 who is covering the Mets in Pittsburgh this weekend: http://metsphotos.com/znti4 # According to the Mets, Santana became the first Mets pitcher since David Cone in 1990 to throw 3 consecutive complete games in a season. # RT @pilam76: @michaelgbaron @dailystache better chance to be on mets in 2011: Ollie or Luis? # OP [...]

Meet Josh Thole, the New Number One Catcher

Meet Josh Thole, the New Number One Catcher

It’s been a long season, and there are still 38 games to go in this roller coaster ride. That said, the Mets actions from yesterday MAY offer a hint at what we may have thought all along – the Mets focus is not on today, and it may not even be on 2011 either. Before [...]

Johan Santana Just Cannot Win…

Johan Santana Just Cannot Win…

Yesterday afternoon, Johan Santana became the first Mets pitcher to throw three consecutive complete games in a single season since David Cone accomplished that feat exactly 20 years ago in August, 1990. Over that span, Santana’s ERA is a mere 2.16, and one would think all of this is good, right? Not so fast. He [...]

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-08-22

The Mets have shutout the opposition 18 times, but they have now been shutout 10 times themselves. Oy. Vey. # Met starters have a 1.14 ERA in their last eight games, but just 4-2. Since ASB, 7-11, 3.20 ERA, 10 ND, but just 10-18 overall since ASB. # More from game notes: Mets are 5-11 [...]

Jose Reyes and Doing His Thing

Jose Reyes and Doing His Thing

As Jose Reyes goes, so do the Mets, as usual. There has been something missing from Reyes this season, and I didn’t realize what that was until this series. Reyes has had a good, but not great offensive year by his standards. I think he has been trying to get a feel for his past [...]

The Mets Offense – Photographically In a Nutshell

The Mets Offense – Photographically In a Nutshell

I could write about how awful the Mets offense has been, especially on their most recent 3-3 homestand. I could write about their approach to hitting overall, or write about how they rank nearly at the bottom of every major offensive category in Major League Baseball. I could also write about how they do their [...]

Twitter Weekly Updates for 2010-08-15

Castillo definitely would have made that play that Tejada just made. No brainer for him #sarcasm # Beltran misplayed that, but that was a Yankee Stadium/CBP homer regardless. May or may not have caught that ball. # One might suggest Reyes picked the wrong time of year to buy a new glove at Sports Authority. [...]

The Skinny on Jon Niese

The Skinny on Jon Niese

Jon Niese has had a good year, much to my surprise. I wasn’t entirely confident in Niese coming out of Spring Training – he has a decent fastball with a good curveball, but that wasn’t enough. Then, Niese began to incorporate a cut fastball towards the end of Spring Training, and his season took off [...]
