End of season report card for the Mets

October 8, 2010 by

0

For a season that opened up with hope, and which was carried to the All-Star break, the Mets once again flamed out and disappointed their fans and had their second consecutive losing season (79-83). Change is now on the horizon as GM Omar Minaya and manager Jerry Manuel were given their pink slips on Monday. […]

Mets finally rip Zach Duke

The Mets pounded out 14 hits and 9 runs in Tuesday’s win over the Pirates. That in itself was a noticeable feat, given how poor the offense has been for the team in the second half of the season. It was just the 14th time in 57 games that the Mets scored five or more […]

Mets close in on grand slam futility

“But they have hit merely eight [grand slams] since ’06 and none in the 202 games since Angel Pagan slammed the D-backs at Citi Field on Aug. 1 last year. And they have allowed 15 since Pagan’s, the 15th coming on Labor Day in Washington. One other team in history has allowed as many as […]

2010 Mets Dopplegangers

One of the difficult things when analyzing the Mets offense this year is to separate the names from the numbers they have actually produced. Sure, yesterday’s lineup had Carlos Beltran, Jose Reyes and David Wright in it but is it accurate to consider the performance the Mets are receiving from these players in 2010 to […]

Counting Angel’s blessings

August 31, 2010 by

In what has been a tumultuous season for the Mets, the club has to be counting their blessings from the season they have gotten from outfielder Angel Pagan. After last night’s 9-3 loss to the division leading Atlanta Braves, the Mets (now 65-66) are looking like a team just stringing it along waiting for the […]

Pagan explains four-hit game

I really needed to see them. I was struggling. When I see my daughters everything goes away. If I go 0-for-10, I forget about everything,” said Pagan. “I needed to go to my house, see my daughters, so I could start fresh. It was a good trip. It was great to have [time] with them, […]

Dreadful offense dooms July

August 1, 2010 by

After a terrific June in which the team went 18-8, the Mets followed up with a brutal July, in which they posted a dismal 9-17 record. Everyone points to the 2-9 road trip that opened up the second half of the season but the bad play started before the break, when the Mets went 2-4 […]

The New York Mets (53-51) rebounded from Friday’s loss with a 5-4 walk-off win in the ninth inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Jesus Feliciano led off the ninth with a long triple to right-center field. After Jose Reyes popped to right field, the Diamondbacks intentionally walked Angel Pagan and David Wright to load the bases. […]

The New York Mets (51-50) dropped a 3-2, 13-inning decision to the St. Louis Cardinals Wednesday night at Citi Field. The loss dropped the Mets to 11-21 in one-run games. Trailing 7-2, the Mets came screaming back, scoring one run in the sixth inning and four in the eighth inning to tie the game. Carlos Beltran […]

Mets need to add offense

July 21, 2010 by

So far, all of the focus on potential trade targets for the Mets has been around adding a starting pitcher. And given the recent performances of Mike Pelfrey (1-4, 9.11 ERA in last 6 games) and Hisanori Takahashi (2-2, 7.18 ERA in last six) it is not hard to understand why. But the biggest bang […]
