I hope K-Rod has learned to read www.metspolice.com and read 7 Things K-Rod & Mets Fans Need To Know About Each Other yesterday because one of the predictions has already came true.
I spent yesterday telling Yankee fans that the NYYs would sign Sabathia “three hours” after the Mets got K-Rod. Sure enough you woke up this morning expecting to read about the Mets, and Sabathia will be the topic of the day.
The Yankees do not like it when the Mets get the spotlight. The Mets announce a stadium, the Yankees announce a stadium. The Mets pick a year to open a new one, the Yankees pick a new one. Spotlight your new park with an exhibiion on April 3rd – we can do that too! The Mets would have had today to themselves – nope, now it’s C.C.’s day.
The Yankees will be stuck with a guy who didn’t want to be here. He’s Randy Johnson. He’s A-Rod. They came for the money but never won.
I’m excited about K-Rod even though deep down I know we’ll wind up hating him when he puts people on and only throws 92 mph. That’s the scars in my psyche from Vince Coleman, Bobby Bonilla, and Four Inning Pedro. Free Agents always let the Mets down. Omar had to do it, and it was the right play. Now I want Omar to take that Federal Bailoit Money and go get me three starters, two corner outfielders, a catcher, a second baseman and someone to pitch the eight.

Dude that’s what competition is all about! If you want to play in the big leagues you have to be willing to do what you have to do.
K-Rod is a great pickup for you guys. But you can’t stop there. You need another starter and some more punch in the lineup.
