El Duque, Pedro, Schoeneweis, Castillo, Nixon, Alou. Holy shit is he serious? And take away the second half of Delgado's '08 season you can add another huge bust. He went into the season with an older than he seems 2b, an ancient LF, and over rated Beltran and Ryan Chruch? And he got a four year extension?
Since blowing a lead against the Cardinals in the NLCS in 06 this team has been a piece of shit consistently. I can not think of one god damn reason why you would bring back the GM, Omar Minaya. Because he only brings in hispanic players and chokes when it really counts? No bat at the deadline? 7 game lead in 07? Your only competition for the WC in '08 fired their manager with 3 weeks left? Willie Randolph?
Alright fine he got Santana who was pretty much given away by the Twins. He got lucky as hell with Pelfrey, Perez was a question mark all season, Pedro was the worst signing of the decade, and Maine was good-ish.
Evans, Murphy, Chavez? Where is the Of depth? Chavez got hurt early and Omar had zero answer. Unless you consider Trot " I wasn't good enough for Cleveland" Nixon an answer. I still don't agree with the Milledge trade even if Lastings hit .240. Schneider is no answer as an every day catcher, Church ran into concussion problems immediately.
Did anyone think el Duque would be in the rotation past April 1st beyond Omar? Pedro Martinez? 4 year deal? Holy shit. Fuck the Mets. This team is a bunch of chokers with no 2b no 1b, maybe 2 starters an above average CF and nothing else. I have no idea how they spent $140 million+ and lost out to the Phillies back to back years. Pathetic.
It is unbelievable how much I agree with this.
