Changes need to be made

Wow... This has been a difficult season so far.  It would be nice to see some team unity and some changes to be made, possibly starting at the top with Omar and Willie.  It seems that the Mets dont play as a team, have a lot of separate agendas and stubbornly stick to a model that does not work.  Its past time to clear out some of the veteran players, promote some AAA guys (they cant do much worse than those on our bench now) and look outside the organization for help on the mound and in the lineup.

Really?

Could you give some examples of “separate agendas”? Are some of the players actually throwing games as if they were contestants on that “The Mole” TV show?

Who is the mole?

Beltran would be too, erm, obvious an answer. I’ll throw out a guess of Luis Castillo. No human being should bunt as much as he does.

Beltran hits into too much tough luck to be the Mole, Heilman is too obvious. Alou could be it, faking injury (can a human really be hurt that often???) to sabatoge the team.

I got It !!! it’s OMAR!!!

The time has come for someone to put his foot down. And that foot is me.

what model are they sticking to?

also, josh: my apologies for my abrasiveness in the game thread a few days back. had a little too much to drink, the mets are frustrating as hell, blah blah. sorry.

All good

Believe me, I understand the frustration, that’s probably the explanation for my abrasiveness as well.

I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.

Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!
In order to raise extra capital, the Mets have explored signing Kosuke Fukudome to a minor league contract with an invitation to Spring Training (replete with curiously high uniform number).
i saw this on the marlins statue/abomination story. gif in the comments
