Pedro Martinez, Wally Backman, Carlos Beltran

A few things that I think were underdiscussed by Mets fans this week thanks to Omar-gate and the trade deadline.

Pedro Martinez aka 4 inning Pedro actually went five innings for Lehigh Valley.   He gave up five runs.

Wally Backman was fired as manager of Joliet this week.  His record in his second season was 24-42.  He will not be the next manager of the New York Mets.

Metsblog mentioned some scary scary Carlos Beltran news here that talks about Beltran possibly missing a lot of the 2010 season if he needs microfracture surgery.   That’s very scary.  You can find a first baseman, you can find a shortstop, you could even come up with a slugging third baseman if Wright catches the injury bug – but replacing an All-Star centerfielder is a challenge.
