I'd rather the mets swing a trade for Kelly Shoppach if they are dealing for a Cleveland Catcher. He's not going to cost as much in return and is a solid hitter and a good defender. He's also stuck catching only 2 or 3 tims a week.

The Mets are currently batting .285 as a team which is 5th in all of baseball. They have the 4th best OBP in Baseball.

Yet they are 18th in baseball with 55 runs. With the other stats you'd figure they would at least be top 10. But that's where the issue has been. They get the guys on, they just aren't getting them in.

That's why you probably got a negative feedback. because they are hitting fine. Just getting no situational hitting.

They are alive, they just aren't clicking. I mean 12 hits is very very good. But they had nothing to show for it. The Mets are currently batting .285 as a team which is 5th in all of baseball. They have the 4th best OBP in Baseball.

They get the guys on, they just aren't getting them in. Also the slugging hasn't been there either. They are something around 25th in the Majors in Slugging.

I agree with you 100%. I voted for the RISP only because had they had one or 2 more hits the team would be off to a better start then 6-6 and you wouldn't be hearing about any of this.

Are you serious?

You think the players actually care if there are no references to anyone in the stadium? The only ones who care are the Fans.

TRS i agree with you. I only voted for RISP because it's the only thing that has bothered me to date and that I'm worried about. The SP I'm not concerned with, the Bullpen not at all. The Defense and hitting I'm not yet either.

So i had to vote for something and the Marlins, the Bench don't worry me. And i would never complain about the Lack of Decor in the stadium

To all those bringing back that we should have signed Manny. He is currently 3-19 with RISP for a nice .158 BA.. He has 5 RBI in those situations.

So would he have made an early difference. Looking at those numbers, not really. Murphy is 3-8 (.375) with 6RBI which is who he would have replaced on the team if he was signed. Church is 2-17(.118) with 4 RBI.

So you can't say Manny would have helped win a single thing so far. If you wanted Manny you wanted Manny. But to say he would have helped when in the same situations he's under preforming in a ridiculously small sample size ,he's worse then Murphy and a tad better then church.

I think your all over anaylizing it a little bit. Nothing bad, but I think jerry is just keeping people Fresh. I agree with Matt that you would think Carlos didn't get a day off yet so it would be his turn. But with Figgy on the mound and the Large CF in Citi that Manuel wants his defense out there. I might be over thinking it also.

Lets go METS!!!!!! SWEEP

Isn't it already the KFC Post game report.... It's ridiculous and rather annoying. Everything is sponsored. Mets and yankees got everything covered. 15th batter, geico wants to remind you that you can save 15% or more on car insurance.... That stolen base is brought to you by Lo Jack..... I can't even remember all of them.

Still thank god Guisseppe Franco is no longer on commercials.

Yeah a little scary. Sheff isn't that bad out there. But the other 2 are going to be shaky. IF tatis can play 2nd, this team has the ability to run out a very very scary lineup on certain days.
