    Re: Ok, Benitez is done.

    I for one am hoping the Mets subtract just about everyone on their squad, get Carlos Beltran and build around him and the young guys they've got in their system. I've been a fan since birth but the last thing I want to see is this team manage to play .500 ball through the summer and trade away their potential youth for more crappy veterans in an attempt to compete with Steinbrenner's wallet... and, oh yeah, the National League... the quicker they go to Hell the quicker they'll rebuild.

    Folks talk about the Expos needing to move... how about the Mets. This contant need to compete with that team across town has made them about the saddest and most boring team in baseball. Hey, if D.C. gets the Expos, hopefully Portland can get the Mets.

      Re: Ok, Benitez is done.

      Depressing start to the season to say the least. Cedeño has been horrible, Floyd is banged up, Rey Sanchez and Bell have been horrible at SS. At least Alomar has woken up. With all that, we are 5 Benitez blown saves from beeing in first. It's still WAY early, but the start has been pretty bad for the Mets. I hope things get better quick..

          Things will get better. Franco will come back. (He's still a good setup man) I'm interested to see what Astacio does tonight.

          By the way, the Mets will always be in NY and that is where they belong!!

                  I'm not saying they should move, of course... but I think you understand what I mean. They need to stop making their #1 priority an arms war with the Yankees and think about building a quality franchise from within... and it appears, from their minor league reports that they're doing just that.

                      The Mets season is most likely done, but off course the season is long. The Mets' problems are just beginning. Benitez is doing horrible,Cliff Floyd is complaining about playing, Stanton is not what he was as a Yankee. Jeromy is out. Cone now is out. Mo, Piazza, Alomar,Sanchez and Cedeno are all struggling and yet the Mets still managed and had the nerves to raise their ticket prices for a team who stunk and underperformed last year. Astacio is just coming back and uncertain whether he is ready and healthy. This is the next NY Rangers team. One of the highest payroll in the MLB and can't even get into the playoffs.
                      " I look at him and it's getting to the point where it's just scaring me. He looks younger but he doesn't carry himself in a younger manner. He's impressive, and I'm glad we drafted him. "

                          Just goes to show that spending a ton of money on players only guarantees one thing, that you'll be poorer than you would be if you didn't spend the money.
