Photo: Turn Back the Clock with Howard Johnson

This photo is of Jon Cina, as a child during the 1986-1987 off-season. He is pictured with now Mets coach Howard Johnson. John’s description of the photo is as follows: “The photo was taken, I believe, during the 1987 offseason, right when 1986 Mets – [The video] “A Year To Remember” was released. He was [...]

David Wright’s Helmet Last Night

David Wright’s Helmet Last Night

During the All Star Game in Anaheim last night, David Wright, who was hit on the head last year by a Matt Cain fastball at Citi Field, was one of many All-Stars to be using the new and re-designed Rawlings S100 batting helmets. According to Yahoo! Sports, only Derek Jeter and All-Star Game MVP Brian [...]

My First Half MVP for the Mets

My First Half MVP for the Mets

In my mind, not only has this kid been the hands down MVP on the field for the Mets so far in 2010, he has transformed himself into an on-field leader, a clubhouse voice, and the essence of what these Mets are about – hard working, never giving up, and fundamentally sound. Putting his performance [...]

Which Uniform for Oliver Perez Do You Prefer?

I personally like the one on the left for him myself, because that would keep him out of Flushing…

Can’t Cry over Spilled Milk

Can’t Cry over Spilled Milk

The Mets being unable to land Cliff Lee definitely hurts. Whats worse, is he has landed on the team across town. What’s even worse than that is he will have played on the two teams that were in the World Series just nine months ago, the two teams that burn us Mets fans the most [...]

Note: about Josh Thole

Note: about Josh Thole

A hot topic as of late is the future of Josh Thole with the New York Mets. I’m not sure what to make of Thole yet. I like him though, mostly because he reminds me of a David Eckstein type – a guy who goes out there and does exactly what’s asked of him to [...]

D-Day is Coming for…

D-Day is Coming for…

 I’d hate to say it, because I love the guy. I think his arrival has sparked this turnaround for the Mets, both in the clubhouse and on the field. His defense is irreplaceable, and his arm is one of the most intimidating forces in the game today. That said, as likeable as he is, as [...]

The Killer of Jason Bay

The Killer of Jason Bay

Jason Bay hasn’t exactly had a stellar first season in New York. He has hit six home runs, four of which have come in two games, and for the most part, he has had very little impact while embedded in the middle of the Mets lineup this season. He has had some big hits for [...]

Jon Niese’s Bubble is Getting Bigger

Jon Niese’s Bubble is Getting Bigger

Since returning from the disabled list on June 5, Jon Niese has not lost at all; nor have the Mets when Niese has taken the mound. Niese has won five straight decisions and the Mets have won all six of the games in which Niese has started since returning from the disabled list, as Niese [...]

Photo: The Johan Homer

Photo Credit: Aaron Doster Johan Santana, once again, owned a game last night. He was brilliant in his complete game, two hit shutout, throwing 78 of his 113 pitches for strikes with his fastball velocity consistently in the low 90s. He was vintage Santana for the second consecutive start, as he’s allowed just one run [...]
