Come on people, don’t feed the monster. Its obvious mets man is here to just talk out his neck while his team is doing good and ours is down. As soon as they start doing bad, he will disappear. Thats how it works. There was a reason he wasn’t here a week in a half ago when the mets were in last place.

That’s like me, as a UT, fan talking smack to UGA fans about or 1951 NC. The Mets won in 1986 against the BoSox in ‘69. Based on his posts, I’m guessing he’s not old enough to have seen or remember either title. He’s a disgrace.

Met fans live in such a big, dark shadow to the Yankees that they just lose their minds when it’s going good. It must be tough to be a second class citizen in your own city. Yanks have you topped in every way possible… Stadium, payroll, talent, class, titles… The list goes on and on. Sorry little buddies, but it’s not our fault. Go yell at some Yankee fans. Oh, that’s right, you can’t because they just laugh at you and mock you like everyone else.

It is like arguing with a 12 year old. None of his points make sense, and when he knows he’s been out-witted on one, he goes on to some other crap that doesn’t make sense. I’m still confused over what exactly the Mets have actually won at this point. Your in first. Congratulations. There are a 139 games left this year.

I dont know what is more shocking….the braves scoring 4 whole runs in one game, or 30,000 plus fans showing up to the first home game following the worst road trip in 60 years!!! I am a huge braves fan, but until management realizes cox and pendleton need to be nowhere near a braves dugout for us to be winners. The youth needs to brought up, and Chipper and Glaus should play sparingly, however with Cox still in the dugout it would be a futile effort as he would continue to play whoever he wants whenever he wants, no matter if they are hitting .140, in a terrible slump, cant play defense….he plays his favorites, and lets Chipper tell him what to do, and where he wants to bat, and any true talents, would just sit on the bench if Cox doesnt like them (see Prado last year-first half), and TP is a pro at messing up hitters, i think the proof is coming clearer everyday with the laundry list of former braves having career years once out of the grips of the grim reaper Pendleton…

I think McLouth is slowly starting to get back to normal, he should be kept in the leadoff spot for now. He did fine for us last year there, and while he has never been a high average guy, he is great at taking walks, doesnt K much, and has a good career OBP. He is a 20/20 guy, and he looks like the first of the group of underachievers that is slowly but surely hitting like the true Nate, the one we saw when he first came here last year, the one who was an allstar with Pitt in 2007. About a .260-.270 guy, with a good amount of walks, 15-20 hrs, 15-20 steals, and a good baserunner, who plays good defense (he’s already made some great catches this year).

Monger

With Heyward coming on really strong with one and almost two homers to start off the Houston series, I still think there is a long way to go, but I think this should be the lineup for now (once Yunel comes back in a day or two)…
1. McLouth CF
2. Prado 2B
3. Heyward RF
4. McCann C
5. Jones 3B
6. Cabrera LF (dont laugh, he’s finally starting to get some hits)
7. Hinske 1B
8. Escobar SS
Once Yunel starts hitting again, move him up to 5th or 6th, and if Chipper ever does start to hit with some power put him back in the 3 hole, but that seems unlikely…the best option for a guy that can still hit some doubles occassionaly with a decent average would be in the 5 hole. Heyward leads the team with 6 homeruns, and I think he should be in the 3rd or 4th spot, I think Mac, being a little more seasoned would be the best option in the cleanup spot, and he is due for a power surge, and will pick up his power numbers…I think this lineup works best….Glaus should be a pinch hitter and nothing more, he at least will give us some pop, and keep a Melky/ Diaz platoon and let Diaz hit against the lefties, as he will pick it up soon as well…McLouth and Melky are already showing signs of breaking out of their funks…
