2009 Mets Season Thread

[MDS]

Trashy, classless closers and a trashy, classless fanbase. Good for them.

Wagner called the Mets "fortunate" to be 14-12 and openly criticized Perez.

"Perez has honestly got to step up and know that we've just used every guy in our bullpen the night before," Wagner said. "He can't come out there and decide that gee, he hasn't got it today, and so be it."

Asked if someone ought to relay that sentiment to Perez, Wagner suggested it would be "pretty much" like talking to a wall.

If Wagner were a Phillie, I'd want him not to trash talk his teammates.

As he is a Met, I think this is absolutely hilarious and give Wagner a lot of credit for his honesty.

Keep on yappin' Billy.

Perez hasn't had his head on straight since he was  Pirate, where has Billy been?

[ice grillin you]

has there ever been a bigger walk machine than o perez...its incredible...a good game for him is to walk 5

[PhillyPhreak54]

I don't know, the Phils of the late 80's and 90's had some pretty horrific pitchers.

Keep on yappin' Billy.

Oliver Perez's last five games pitched
1-3, 23.1 IP, 23 R, 18 ER, 26 H, 19 BB, 19 K, 6.94 ERA, .283 BAA, 1.948 WHIP

i was reading back through this thread, it was kinda low on the board...but this doozy made me laff and laff and laff

True, the Mets bullpen sucks. But the Philllies pen sucks just as much, if not more.

mets are 71-71 since june 1, 2007

That's rather impressive, actually.  It's pretty hard to be perfectly average for nearly an entire year.

Figueroa called the Nats softball girls for their cheering last night.

Uh, yo Nelson have you seen Jose Reyes lately?

Boooohoooo the mean Nationals got in my head last night so now I'll cry about it.

STFU, Nelson. You're a minor leaguer.

Quite literally.  He got the dreaded DFA today.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Maybe there's a girls softball league that will sign him.

Lost 3 out of 4 at home to the Nats.  Is it September already?

[PhillyPhreak54]

Kill the clubhouse, Billy!

From a Mets beat writer blog;

That undercurrent over some Mets ducking the media bolied over after the game. As reporters spoke with Billy Wagner after the loss first about the Yankees series, then about today's game, Wagner wondered aloud why the closer was drawing attention. Then he went Paul Lo Duca-esque minus the racial component. He looked over toward Carlos Delgado's locker and blurted: Someone tell me why the (expletive) you're talking to the closer. I didn't even play. They're over there not being interviewed.......... I got it. They're gone (expletive) shocker.

Kurkjian was pointing out on SC tonight how the Mets are not hustling anymore either. Wright loafing down to first, Reyes loafing to 3rd, Castillo loafing...

This is great.
