Mets Fan About to Give Up

[cjwct]

Buster Olney is reporting that the Mets are in negotiations to trade for Andruw Jones to play right field (which conversely means Church would probably be part of the deal).

HOW THE HELL CAN THE WILPONS AND MINAYA JUSTIFY THIS DEAL WHEN ADAM DUNN IS STILL OUT THERE . . . AND OH YEAH, RAMIREZ!!!!!!

I am giving up before the season starts if they follow through with this . . . this is ridiculous!!!!!!

 

[Mets82]

Buster's reporting it but might not happen. I agree when I saw the story I was flabbergasted. I hope he doesn't come here but I think I remember him saying he like New York. For now, Omar and Co., don't worry about Andrew Jones get Derek Lowe signed!!!!

 

[KCK_Halo]

I feel your pain, my man. Rumor is the Dodgers are heavily after Dunn today.

 

[cjwct]

Makes no sense whatsoever . . . Minaya can outbid anyone on Dunn and we don't even open up talks with him . . . what the hell???? But we'll seriously consider Andruw Fatso Jones and his 150 average from last season as opposed to a consistent 40 homerun hitter for several of the past seasons!

IF this deal goes through, I am sending my tickets back!

Easy Cowboy.

Besides, I just don't understand the fascination with Dunn. He consistently leads the league in strikeouts and can't play a lick of defense.

 

[cjwct]

yes you are correct about the strikeouts, but when you have to swing at every pitch in the lineups he has been in, you expect that . . . batting after wright and/or beltran or some other combination, I'd expect productivity . . .

career #'s:
career on-base is .381
fielding percentage is .975

Chicks dig the long ball.

 

[cjwct]

that speaks volumes against the numbers of tatis, reed and other outfielders who we have

Wait a minute,
Not so fast my friend ...
Who says you get Derek Lowe ?

I just heard that the Mets were in discussions with Derek Lowe. Nothing final. As a Mets fan, I'm going to root for anyone who could make the team better.

I think there are several teams talking with Lowe

 

[cjwct]

Lowe and Perez should become Mets . . . no real competition for them!

How do you figure ?
The Red Sox have definite interest in Lowe, you can have Perez.

Damn, I was hoping the Cubs would get Dunn. He would hit about 60 dingers in Wrigley.

According to reports, the Cubs were his first choice till the Dodgers came into the picture.
