jon heyman … you can get better scoop by reading rotoworld.

this guy hasn’t broken a big story in his entire life.

like the mets brass is really going to tell these mlb wannabe’s what their plans really are.

i just wait until it’s fact and then i believe it.

You want to know the sad thing about all of this? Amid all the pontification, the underlying dread still remains:

The Mets must get at least 2 bats (preferably even 3, at LF, 1b, and 2b/C) plus 2 starters (at least one frontline and a good number 3 or better) to even have a chance of finishing in second place in the NL East, let alone sniffing the fumes of the Phillies. Seeing as the optimum offseason will not play out, we will be here in February and March, grasping at straws to talk ourselves into the Mets being playoff contenders, just like last year and just like in the early 2000s. Yet the truth and reality will still be there: there is little chance that the Mets will be anythig but mediocre, although they will steal a back page or 2 and convince a few dumb writers that they are the team to beat.

Do YOU realize we’ve only had Santana… for 2 years?

no offense or anything i believe Jon Heyman has no idea what he’s talking about and doesn’t know how to BUILD a CHAMPION team…

does Jon Heyman realize we lacked starting pitching after Santana for 3 STRAIGHT years ?

Maine/Pelf/Perez were not SOLID starters

we had to put more pressure on Santana to get a Win, very sad

i guess Jon Heyman doesn’t see that and is saying things are not true

oh yeah last time i checked Jon Heyman is not the
GM of the Mets..

so there for Jon Heyman shouldn’t be claiming the Mets have no interest in Jon lackey or saying the Mets are NOT going to get him

really?

Enough said..

I despise Alomar just as much as anyone, but I am pretty confident he will be in the HOF:

16 years service
12 STRAIGHT all-star appearances
10 gold gloves at 2B (a record)
4 silver sluggers
2 W.S. rings
.300 career average
.443 SLG
2,724 hits
210 HR
1,134 RBI
1,508 Runs
474 SB (> 30 SB eight times)

I agree he failed with the Mets at the end of his career. But he is probably a HOF player.
