Like I said, I'm just as frustrated as any of you, but to start saying things like "break up the core" and "this team is going nowhere" on April 19th is just insane. I'm worried about the SP, yes, but not the offense. They will come around, mark my words. And when they do, I'm not even going to say "I told you so."

But whatever. I'm done. You guys are seriously losing it, LOL.

Yeah, because you're always right and you can see into the future. Haha, just hilarious.

Look guys, this is very frustrating, I know...but it's 12 f-ing games. When was the last time the season was determined in April? When was the last time a team didn't CHANGE throughout the course of a season? Answer me that, Mr. Know-it-all...

BTW, those WEREN"T excuses...its called not jumping ship after two weeks.

I'm really going to laugh when they hit their stride and everyone else is back on the bandwagon. I swear, if any team has fair-weather fans, it's this one. IT'S 12 GAMES...lol

Exactly. If anyone bunts, it's Tatis. Santos was crushing the ball, and you don't wanna bunt when the tying run is already in scoring position with one out. It's not like there was a big hitter behind him...

And a million times you've been wrong. It's obviously the supporting cast, i.e. the bottom of the lineup. I didn't like the fact that Manuel sat BOTH Church and Castillo, who are our best hitters so far...I think Castillo has to hit 2nd with Murphy 7th, which extends the lineup and shouldn't strand so many runners.

Things will click, but until they do it's going to be frustrating. Again, it's only 12 games in. If they're still doing this crap mid-May or June, we've got issues.

Bunt? Why would you bunt and take the bat out of his hands? He hit the ball well today, and just got unlucky it was hit right at somebody. If you're gonna cry about Sanos' DP ball, you know NOTHING about baseball...

However, the other guys have no excuse. i.e. Delgado, Tatis, Wright, etc...

Talk about unlucky. Santos crushed that ball...nothing you can do about that.

I thought the joke made by Burkhardt about the whole line of sight thing was hilarious. I used to sit down the right field line at Shea and I always left with a sore neck. There were always tons of people in the way too, so I rarely saw the pitch the whole time from the pitcher to the catcher, lol...

I'm sure Citi is a little better than that

I don't think we have the players to trade for a Halladay-type pitcher. Don't get me wrong, it would be nice to have the guy, but I think Omar is too stuck on not trading F-Mart (who everybody wants).

SP is looking good for the future, actually. Of course, I'm talking 2-3 years down the road, but imagine this rotation (if they continue their current track):

-Santana
-Pelfrey
-Holt
-Mejia
-Niese

That's nasty. Of course, prospects don't always work out. Keep your fingers crossed!
