Well

When you have that small taste of things actually getting better (they were leading the Central for awhiel), you forget how to trade. Granted I hate the Pirates

Really?

There really hasn’t been any reason to hate them for like twenty years.

My hatred for the Penns

Transfers to the Pirates in addition they were our rival back in the heyday

On behalf of all Mets fans I'd like to offer my condolences to Pittsburgh

Am I allowed to feel bad for the Pirates because of this?

it is ridiculous that any team would bother with iggy

after the unmitigated disaster that was his stint in Flushing…

I guess a 9.5 K/9 rate gets teams hopeful…even if it comes with a 6.5 (!) BB/9 rate as well.

"Igarashi's a good Japanese import for the Mets. Not a Masato Yoshii or a Kaz Matsui, but a good import."

It was good process, bad results

Masato Yoshii wasn’t that bad, though. Neither was Matsui, in the grand scheme of things (especially his overall MLB career). Both were better than Toyota Irrigation, I would say.
