If Reyes is .286 and Murphy is .281 I can still work in Charlie Sheen

Mets fans, today I will bring you nothing but awesomeness.

Hello from last night, where after a long day I have waved off Chatty Mrs. Mets Police and am fighting sleep to bring you the coolness.

First up, is the Maple Street Press Mets Annual (attention Federal Watchdogs I received a free review copy of the magazine.)

You know how you buy the Yearbook and you wish it were better?  This is the better version.  Pics, stats, articles, history, tidbits.  All in here.

Some parts I enjoyed:

– The Bill James Projections.  If Jose Reyes goes .286  with 85 runs (in only 128 games played) that would be disappointing right?  However, I think a Dan Murphy .281 12HR and 59 runs and 64 rbi would result in dancing in the streets.  I don’t see how Santana is starting 28 games to go 15-7, but that would be as awesome as RA Dickey’s 11-12 would be disappointing.

– you guys will like the Reyes and RA articles.  I like the one about the Mets Hall of Fame, and the fun quotes from Dave Howard.

– a 1986 Mets article…hold on she is interrupting again.  WHAT?

Please stop talking.  Please stop…oh she stopped.  Can’t she see I am trying to BLOG?

….anyway there is a 1986 article.  I forget what I was going to say.

And last and certainly not least, an article by Paul Lukas about the history of METS UNIFORMS!  Woo-hoo!!

Maplestreetpress.com if you want one, or newsstands.

Here’s the official blurb:

With up-and-coming stars like Ike Davis and established veterans like David Wright, the Mets are poised to surprise people in 2011.

The Maple Street Press Mets Annual 2011 has everything you need to prepare for the season. Edited by popular Mets authors Matthew Silverman and Greg Spira, the MSP Mets Annual is 128 pages focused solely on the Mets. No ads, all Mets: from the minor league system to the team’s rich history. Here is just a sample of what you’ll find inside:

  • Pitch-level scouting reports revealing the strengths, weaknesses, and tendencies of every key player
  • A detailed look at the National League contenders and pretenders
  • Move the fences in at Citi? Not so fast
  • Finally, a Mets Hall of Fame worthy of the fans
  • R.A. Dickey calls ’em as he sees ’em
  • Could Kirk Nieuwenhuis follow in Ike Davis’s footsteps?
  • Greg W. Prince looks back at Mike Piazza’s memorable home run that got baseball, and the city, going after 9/11
  • Paul Lukas on the good, the bad, and the ugly of Mets uniform history

It’s cool…but as awesome as it is…the awesomeness for today has just begun.  Come back in an hour.

Oh..almost forgot…the Maple Street Press Mets Annual reminded me that Charlie Sheen owned the Buckner ball for a while. Right there that’s a winner….and remember, Charlie Sheen wouldn’t charge you to print out Mets tickets at home.
