Delgado puts Mo Vaughn's time in a Met uniform to utter embarrassment. Lets just completely forget that you did not know the difference between 2006 and 2007 or assume it was really confusing for you. Delgado put the entire team on his back last summer. If the Mets had a bullpen Delgado would have taken his 1.199 2006 post season OPS into the playoffs.

I missed ya! I couldnt take it anymore.. I needed a couple weeks off to become sane. Now I'm back and better than ever... Nice and refreshed and ready to debate about the much needed offseason moves.

The fact that a) they did not fire anyone of significance after this season and b) are looking to bring in yet MORE former GMs to add to the confusion, speaks volumes about their style of management. Plus they are also clearly afraid of going out and getting someone from outside the organization to bring them a different perspective. Are there worse owners out there? Of course - just ask any Pirates fan. But does that make the Wilpons good owners? No. I do agree that a large portion of the responsibility falls squarely on the shoulders of the Wilpons.

For the past several years, we have watched Dan Snyder, the owner of the Redskins, destroy a once-proud franchise, by playing General Manager. I hope the Wilpons don't make the same mistake.....a great owner is someone who hires the best possible baseball person, establishes a budget and gets out of the way.

You are referring to his 2007 season, when he hit .258 with 24 home runs. That was the year of the 7 game lead collapse and he made those "bored" comments.
