Playoffs outsider: Girardi saves bullpen for March

I was emailing Mr. Sunshine all night letting him know Hughes was dancing with death.   Sunshine actually got hissy with me and turned it into some sort of Mets Suck thing.  I know the Mets suck.  You think that pains me?  Try starting Famous Brave Tom Glavine in a do or die game.  Mets Suck doesn’t hurt me, it’s what I write about.

Three years for Joe Girardi, one ring, two failures.

Any idiot can manage a $200 million payroll right?

Anyways Yankee fans, congratulations on this…

George would be proud.

Another love letter from Jeff Wilpon!

I can’t believe Dana Brown didn’t make the cut!  It’s as if they brought him in to fill some sort of requirement.

Dear Mets Fans:

We are bringing back Josh Byrnes and Sandy Alderson for a second round of interviews with Fred, Saul and me. Josh is scheduled for Monday and Sandy for Tuesday as we continue our search for the next General Manager of the Mets.

John Ricco and I spoke personally with Allard Baird, Rick Hahn, Logan White and Dana Brown earlier today to thank them for their interest and taking the time to interview with us.

We will be back to you with more information regarding our new GM soon.

Sincerely,

Jeff Wilpon

Guess the worst 2010 free agent signing

Business Insider lists the Top 6 worst free agent signings of 2010.

Can you guess who #1 is and why I am mentioning it on a Mets blog?

And you know what – I am not going to second guess them.  I wanted a pitcher, specifically I wanted John Lackey (14-11 with a 4.40 in traditional old man stats that old men like me understand) but I am not going to say that I wasn’t in favor of adding a bat.  Like with all Mets free agents I expect them to come to Flushing and suck.  I’m pretty sure they woud have signed Lou Gehrig after he hit .295 with 29 and 114 in 1938
