Mets Tickets, Saturday Plan
I currently own 4 saturday plan tickets for the Mets. Next year one of my friends has decided to pass on this. 3 seats just seems a weird number, so rather than trying to condense my plan, I’m looking for a 4th person that wants to buy the seat. I figured it’s always fun to meet new people, and maybe there’s someone out there that always wants to go to games but never has anyone to go with.
If anyone out there is actually interested in this and/or wants more details feel free to email me at ceetarsnose@gmail.com. Last year are seats were UR section 15, row G. which were decent seats.

Mota..oh, and Estrada
I think the best part of this deal was ditching Mota. and that the Brewers are paying him.
Estrada looks fine to me as a catcher, but the Mets could even ditch him and not pay him via arbitration. woo. It’s time to focus on pitching, but I know that the Mets just improved the bullpen in this trade
Classless organizations
Enough with A-Rod. I actually like A-Rod while he’s not currently employed by those people, but I’m tired of the crazy rumors and speculation. Would he just sign somewhere already?
As for the Yankees supposedly willing to talk again? It’s such a joke.
They’ve gone back on their word.
They’re staging a one-man boycott of an agent, which will only hurt them in the end. You can’t arbitrarily not deal with players because of who their agent is.
They expending quite a bit of effort and attention on basically keeping together a team that won one postseason game last year. They’re putting an awful lot of faith in those young pitchers, which is the only real area you could expect improvement.
They just barely stopped short of asking A-Rod to crawl back to them, beg for his money, and apologize for opting out. Real classy.
As for the Mets, It’s still a long offseason, but I’m getting antsy for some sort of real move, involving hopefully a bullpen guy or a starting pitcher.

Rumor Mill
Rumors abound!
I like all the rumors, because it keeps baseball talk alive, and I can only take so much of the same football stories all week since nothing happens between Monday night and Sunday afternoon, but I do hate chasing around rumors. There are so much unsubstantiated stuff, so many halfway-educated writers decided what the Mets just HAVE to do to be good next year, and so many little things to keep track of.
I’m happy with what the Mets have done so far. I don’t think we needed Easley, but I like Anderson and Alou. Let’s see what happens for the rest, but I don’t know that I’ll have a good sense until April, after I’ve seen and heard about all the bullpen prospects the Mets have for the season. Because I think the bullpen is the biggest issue, as much as I would like another starter. I wouldn’t be panicing with Pedro, Maine, Perez and Humber, Pelfrey and El Duque. Maybe pick up a marginal guy now or later or both and see what happens. I want them to resign Lo Duca, and Castillo, and I think they will.
So let’s see where this goes, I just can’t take real interest in the zillion of rumors and trades that are suggested every day. Too many writers, not enough stuff to write about.
