From Career Threatening, to back in 3 weeks. All in about an hour...

Gotta love NY.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.

lets not forget

It’s the Mets. “After the all-star break” could mean July 16th or September 29th. I don’t care that they said 3-4 weeks, I am not being overly optimistic just yet.

"I told him the next time he does that, I’m going to get my blade out and cut him, right on the field. Hey, I’m a gangsta now. You go gangsta on me, I’m gonna have to get you now."

It doesnt pay to be overly optimistic as a Mets fan.

You should know that by now. But if the guy who invented the procedure is saying that it isnt necessary, that is a good sign.

I think we all need to take a Joe Torre relaxation pill

Its a long season. We still have 80 games to go and the mets are 2 games back. One day met fans are jumping off a bridge and the next their buying playoff tickets. I think
we all need to relax. We should have most of the core back by the end of July. If the Mets are only 2 or 3 games back by that point then watch out this team will win this division. The Phillies have to be kicking themselves by not pulling away.

Omar's off-season contract strategy.  (Get it?)
(Yes, I'm having too much fun with GraphJam)
I'm doing a little study on the NL East and thought I'd share an interesting little tidbit.  To all of the self-loathing Mets fans/lazy 'MLB insiders' and journalistic parrots who have 1) Condemned the entire Mets organization as a joke 2) Written off this core's impressive run to date and 3) Deified the Phillies as unstoppable juggernauts w/ no chance to lose this division:

Yes, those wins are weighted towards '06-'07 and yes, the Phillies' are more recent but the fact remains that no other team in that span can even come close to the Mets total of days in first place, which should be garnering a lot more respect than it has.  If only because we still have nearly the same core in place that has clearly had a lot of success and health-willing can very easily do so again in 2010.
