wow, oft injured Kerry Wood

[SD_Eagle5]

seth everett was just saying how many people feel k rod is going to visit dr andrews before next season is out and that the velocity hes lost is due to his horrible mechanics causing some sort of bad injury....theres also steriod rumors circulating k rod


he said they should have went with kerry wood instead

I thought it was a bit ironic the Angels didn't want him back.

Your definition of "ironic" is a little off, but I still see your point.

rumors floating that the Mets are trying to get Seattle's closer J.J. Putz as their setup guy..........3-way trade with Cleveland where they'd give up Heilman, Joe Smith and another player

WTF.........done deal.

Mets get Putz, Jeremy Reed and Sean Green
Indians get Joe Smith and Luis Valbuena
Mariners get Heilman, Endy Chavez, Mike Carp, Franklin Gutierrez, Jason Vargas, Maikel Cleto and Ezequiel Carrera

I hate losing Chavez, but just the fact that Heilman's sorry ass is gone already makes the pen worlds better.

Mets gave up some young talent to get that deal done, I've seen reports where Putz wants to be a closer not a set up guy so we'll see how that all works out.

"It's a new challenge and I'm excited about it... I'm going to a new team that's going to be very competitive.  Francisco Rodriguez is a great closer and with Sean Green going as well, we should have a great bullpen."

PEACE OUT HEILMAN

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I, for one, will miss Heilman.

Kudos to Minaya for getting some value for his sorry ass.

[BigEd76]

David Wright wears guyliner

[BigEd76]

Schoeneweis traded to Arizona for minor leaguer Connor Robertson.  So Feliciano is the Mets' only lefty in the bullpen.  I guess they'll just sign Fuentes for that.

[Feva]

On the "Needs to have a shotgun stuck up his ass so I can pull the trigger" list:

Aaron Heilman - 1
Scott Schoenweis - 1A

.
FastFreddie - 5

Racist.

"I don't want there to be a controversy or the other ballclubs in that division to take it personally or take it in a bad way," he said. "If they ask me, 'Oh, which ballclub is going to win the National League East?' It's going to be the Mets. Easy question."

[ice grillin you]

the mets are such a joke...and so weak...when jimmy did it it was original and fresh and he was a farging man about it...then went out and won the mvp and the division...these pathetic weak sauced attempts by first beltran and now this idiot k rod whos been in the rivalry for all of five minutes scream of insecurity and are just plain pathetic...memo to the mets youre trying way to hard and its plain for everyone to see

not to mention the mets talk shtein after they went out and aquired players that in reality should win them the division...jimmy said it when the phils werent the favorites and had really added nothing of significance from the previous years team


christ the mets are a bunch of farging front running no heart gutless pices of shtein
