“All Time Met Killers” is my pick for this weeks Around The Net video. YouTube user bigvinny626 does a great job putting together a list of baseball players that have hammered the Mets pretty hard over the years.
Also, for a list of players with the most homeruns against the Mets all-time, check out the bottom of this NY Time Article.
In the video below I explain why I’m terrified that Mets fans and the organization are going to fall into the Daniel Murphy trap.

A quick post about a couple stories I’m reading around the internet on this busy Friday.
Over at The Ropolitans, Andrew Vazzano post a video of David Wright appearing on FOX Business to discuss sports endorsements. They get into a discussion about Wright’s deal with Vitamin Water plus a new venture. During the discussion Wright talks about the Mets issues this season and he says it’s a “combination of injuries and poor play”. I think this is an important statement by Wright said because he’s right. The Mets sure did have a lot of injuries this season, but even when everyone was healthy, they still played poor.
Over at Metsblog, Matt Cerrone says next season “I’d like to see every Mets fan who attends Citi Field wearing a blue shirt… nothing but blue”. I agree and support this. So many times this season I heard Mets fans complain about one thing or another at Citi Field (myself included). Here is a chance for us fans to make Citi Field “feel more like the Mets home”. Let’s get behind this, wear blue and add some character to the ballpark!
Q & A Question answered in the video above:
TheMetman594 – With the struggles of Daniel Murphy this season at first base, do you think that the Mets should resign Carlos Delgado despite his age, or should they try to trade or pick up a first basemen during the offseason?
In the video below I discuss Jose Reyes career as a New York Met and I ask myself (and you the viewer), do you think he can get better or have we seen the best of Jose Reyes?

In the video post below I give my thoughts on why I could care less about who’s leading the Mets in home runs, the drastic decline in ticket prices and the importance of John Maine’s comeback.
As the 2009 New York Mets season heads toward the end, it’s time to start looking back some of my early season predictions and polls. I previously asked the question: How Many Homeruns Will David Wright Hit?. At the time the responses were mixed. In the video post below I discuss Wright’s power outage and ask you the viewer a couple of questions:
In the video below, I comment on a few New York Mets related stories I’m reading today.

This weeks pick for New York Mets photo of the week is a photo from Flickr buddy penner42. “What A Mess” pretty much sums up the entire Mets season.

Now that the Mets have been officially eliminated from the playoffs, the team can turn it’s attention to preparing for next year. With that said, I am recommended five books that the entire Mets organization need to read. In the video post below I discuss those five books and more.
