And Now They're Back!

David Wright will be spending Super Bowl Sunday with HoJo at HoJo's house. And HoJo will be doing the cooking. Daniel Murphey and Nick Evans will be joining them and they will probably end up talking about hitting. I hope Daniel and Nick get lots of playing time this year. Hopefully they won't be as lost in the outfield.

It's Nick Evans' birthday.
HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY NICK!

When the Mets are Away, Alex Gordon is Here Instead

On the front page of the ESPN MLB section there is an article about Alex Gordon. I can't read it all because I'm not an ESPN Insider but if you want to spend your money you can do that and read lots of cool stuff. It talks about Alex's hitting and how he is improving to be able to get through the entire season. I haven't seen him play much but it does seem like he tends to drift off towards the end of the season. Hopefully this year he will be consistent for the entire season. And hopefully the consistiency will be good and not a bad .220 batting average consistent.

Here's the link.

OHMIGOD!

That's what I said when I saw the preview for what was coming up on Hot Stove after the break at some point during the episode. I said that because Kevin went to Wichita to visit Mike Pelfrey in the offseason to catch up with him. It was nice seeing Mikey P. during the winter when he isn't wearing a Santa suit.

I'll post a link when I find one.

The Mets haven't done anything so instead I will just post some videos that I like. They are going to be really random but whatevs.
























If you actually stuck around long enough to get to this point then remember to watch Mets Hot Stove tonight if you aren't going to the Manny rally. I don't want Manny but I wanna see the rally. (I'll be recording it because I have a bio tutor coming.

What, No Press For Me?!

Update 9:33- The Rangers just won and Scotty Gomez is being interviewed and he is absolutely impossible not to love.

This boy has a Steelers themed Bar Mitzvah and had a news article written about it. My Bat Mitzvah didn't have any news articles written about it. And mine was fun and Broadway themed (I know, no Mets). But I find this unfair, especially because I really don't like the steelers.

In other news, Jerry Manuel said he would like seeing Manny as a Met. I say I would throw-up from the sight of Manny in a Mets uniform.

News from former Mets (A.K.A. traitors, at least for today) is that Tom Glavine is going to meet with Frank Wren to see if he can sign a contract with the Red Sox. Can't he just accept that John Smoltz will always be better than him?

In the 'if all my hopes and dreams came true' department there is the Yankee want to trade Xavier Nady and the Met need for more offense and another outfielder so maybe soon they can hook up on a trade.

I Really Don't Know What Will End Up In This Post

So, apparently there is some book that Joe Torre didn't actually write but he said a bunch of stuff that just happens to be in the book. I am actually really excited to read about A-Fraud and all the other goodies that Joe Torre uses to burn the Yankees.

Today at school this senior guy that I know saw my sister in her Yankee shirt and apparently went up to her and was like 'you're a yankee fan?!' because he knew I'm a Mets fan but he didn't know my sister is a yankee fan.

Also in school, for my acting class at some point this semester we are going to get to do an impersonation of somebody so I thought of Yogi Berra but then my teacher said the person has to be dead so I thought of Casey Stengal but my teacher told me I could choose Yogi if I wanted to, and then she called me a baseball addict.

The Mets have done absolutely NOTHING to improve the offense so I think that the Wilpons should give somebody else a chance to be the GM. If they chose me I would trade Tatis and Robinson Cancel to the Yankees for Xavier Nady because the Yankees would SOOOOOOO love that trade. I would also trade Connor Robertson and Carlos Muniz to the Indians for Joe Smith (I love you!) and Grady Sizemore. Then I would trade Carlos Beltran to the Red Sox for Jacoby Ellsbury. I know those trades would make me happy and appeal to a whole new fan base, teenage girls!

Drop Everything!

Because I just found a David Wright video!

SO HOT!

The Mets Need a FanFest!

I'm really bored and kinda just want baseball to start. I woke up this morning wishing I could turn on the TV and see highlights of last nights Mets game. But the Mets didn't have a game last night so there is no way I could do that. This week has really been the low point of sports. Football has this week off before the Super Bowl prep. week. Basketball is boring and the NHL has the All-Star game this week so their week ended on like Wednesday. Basically, I'm really bored and SO ready for baseball.

Nothing interesting to post about the Mets.

WOO! (A.K.A. I'm A Lot More Excited Than I Really Should Be)

With all of the Freddy Garcia rumors I never got too excited about him and always looked at him as a pitcher that the Mets don't really have any reason to get. He has been injured for a long time and I don't expect much from him. But, now that the Mets have signed him I am actually really excited for him to be a Met. Maybe it is just the fact that the Mets have 5 starters and now Omar can focus on getting Xavier Nady back. Maybe it's because he chose the Mets over the Yankees. The Mets won beat the Yankees, even if it is only for some formerly injured pitcher.

I have new hope!

Sui Dynasty! I Know!

But first I have something to say.

I can't imagine that Michael Young is happy about this. The Rangers just moved him away from SS so they could use Elvis there. Then they go and get the best fielding SS like EVER. That can't be what Mike expected. Basically they moved him to make room for Omar. They claim he is going be a utility infielder but they can't do that to the best SS in the game.
