Mets 2011 Season Nearly Over
Posted by admin in Carlos Beltran, Ike Davis Mets 1st Baseman, Johan Santana, K-Rod, New York Mets on September 8th, 2011
As the leaves begin to change color and kids go back to school, the New York Mets 2011 season is just about over.
The year was similar to 2010, in which early in the season the Mets outplayed expectations but fell apart right after the All Star Break. 2011 was no different as Jose Reyes and resurgent Carlos Beltran got the Mets off to a fairly good start and kept them within striking distance of a wild-card birth during the first half of the season. Then it all slowly went downhill, Reyes got injured and re-injured, Beltran and K-Rod were traded away, Ike Davis hurt his foot and was out for most of the season. Still no sign of Johan Santana, but he is supposed to make a couple starts before the season ends.
No 90 win team. No playoffs. Nope, another year of watching the Phillies and Yankees tear-up the playoffs, while Mets fans ask themselves the same questions over and over. When will this change?
Hopefully, 2012!
Add the Lowly Pittsburgh Pirates to Our List of Rivals
Posted by Señor Met in Atlanta Braves, Carlos Beltran, Pittsburgh Pirates, Washington Nationals on June 6th, 2009
According to the Pirates, the Mets have “Zero Class”
Yea, we sure do have “Zero Class”, but not because Beltran said the Mets getting swept by the Pirates was embarassing, but because the Mets getting swept by the Pirates is embarrasing.
Beltran is right on, we are way better then the Pirates. Just this week, the pirates traded away their best player, Nate McClouth (who happens to be on my fantasy team and now I have to drop him because he is on our bitter rival the Braves), like they do every year. They have not had a winning season since like Bonds left to get closer to his Steroid supplier.
So we already have a rivalry with:
- Yankees
- Phillies
- Braves
- Marlins
- & to a lesser extent a few others like the Red Sox
but now we get to add a new one with the NL Central Perpetual Doormats. And nothing gets a sub .500 team interested in playing their absolute best more then a rivalry against a big city team.
btw, we lost on Saturday to the NL East Perpetual Doormats by a lot, 7-1. That is also embarrassing. I know I can’t wait to get back to NY.
The Mets are Good, the Mets are Great, Thank You for this Team

The San Francisco Giants made a game of it late.
Then Francisco Slammed the Door.
In the cluth, Face of the Franchise David Wright and Manager Jerry Manuel’s favorite Omir Santos broke the game open in the ninth with RBI base hits.
The reality that all Mets fans have to realize is that the 2009 Mets are simply fun to watch. Especially now that they are winning the close games. Even when they were losing, they were in every game and were getting plenty of opportunities. Now the offense is capitalizing on those same opportunities and we are scoring more runs more often.
Fun to Watch
- On base they steal often. So cool.
- They Play D. Yea, they have their moments of futility, but they also have more then their fair show of Top 10 Plays.
- Mets have the best pitcher in baseball. Every time he pitches I think he will throw the Mets first No-Hitter.
- Doubles and Triples. Love the speed.
- Home Runs. Love the power.
- CitiField.
- Carlos Beltran off to a great start.
- 22+ Run Differential
- 2 Game Lead in the NL east
- No ‘roid infested players
CitiField Streaker Propels Mets to Come From Behind Victory
Posted by Señor Met in Atlanta Braves, Carlos Beltran, CitiField on May 13th, 2009
A nearly naked fan with “Lets Go Mets” streaked across the diamond and slid into 2nd base. The streaker only wore a stuffed animal that wrapped around his package like a thong, much to the pleasure of the 39,000 fans of this fan. Despite being arrested, the first CitiField Streaker sparked the Mets to come from behind late in a game for the first time this year.
Mets now own the Braves.
Carlos Beltran made lots of things happen, which he has been doing all season long.
