I can’t even find it in me me to muster outrage at this point. there needs to be some serious housecleaning this season. And shame on all the “fans” who brought this about.

Good points on KRod. This was another one of those classic signings where we thought it would be decent the first year, but the first year is now over and what are we left with.

As for blaming the fans for Reyes’ leg injury…that’s a new one. Come to think of it, the weather sucked today. I blame the media.

but hamstrings are just tricky. Clearly, more rest is better but Reyes has been out since May. Had he waited until November to run on it he might still have torn it.

thanks to loud mouths on talk radio, i think some fans believe reyes is lazy, or doesn’t want to return from the disabled list…

But for a few weeks, he was posting all these ridiculous things about “the buzz” at Citi Field and how people thought he was dogging it. Never bothered to point out how absurd that was.

And then there was the “Will Reyes ever reach his potential?” post, as if what he’s done the last 5 years isn’t enough and if he ever tried harder he’d be Albert Pujols.

From that post:
he’s been out most all of this season with a mysterious hamstring injury, and i can’t help and wonder if he is what he is… is this as good as he’ll be… is he ‘that player,’ you know, the guy who shows signs of greatness, who i believe is a super star, but who then drifts in to struggle, then back to greatness, then back to struggle, all interspersed with the occasional injury, talk of immaturity … he’s been out most all of this season with a mysterious hamstring injury, and i can’t help and wonder if he is what he is… is this as good as he’ll be… is he ‘that player,’ you know, the guy who shows signs of greatness, who i believe is a super star, but who then drifts in to struggle, then back to greatness, then back to struggle, all interspersed with the occasional injury, talk of immaturity

any reason why Reyes still isn’t scheduled to go under the knife?? What the hell are they waiting for?

will he be ready to go by spring training? Or is that too short a timeframe?

This hamstring injury has to have an impact on how he runs from now on. I strained my hammy a few years back, and it still bothers me on occasion(also running the bases). It hasn’t slowed me down any, but it is tighter in the area where the strained occurred. I can’t even imagine how much harder it is for a torn hammy.

I find it odd that Jose was saying that some thing felt odd about the leg. He tore his hamstring, I would say that it would be more than odd, it would feeling fing painful.

Jose is rich so hopefully he can use that money to get the best treatment and training. I would imagine he will be doing an insane amount of stretching for the rest of his career.

It’s a testament to how horrible this season has been and how pessimistic I am about the organization’s future that, for the first time in my 25+ years of sports fandom, I am much more excited about football than baseball. The Giants are like the complete opposite of the Mets right now – an efficiently run organization with competent people in charge. Hell, even the Jets seem to be run more effectively.

The sad thing is that I still care. Last night I find myself in the car, running errands, and listening to damned game, tuning into WFAN because I can hear it at night and I wanna hear Howie. And I’m getting into the game, and getting mad at myself for getting tense even though the game is meaningless and I know Frankie is gonna blow it.

I hate this team even more because I can’t stop caring about them.
