Mets Minors 8/12

Buffalo Nick Evans 3-5 HR, 2b, rbi (Very nice bounceback season for Evans who now has a 299/369/534-904 line on the year with 19 homers. Jerry has never appeared to be a big fan but I have a feeling someone else will be filling out the lineup cards in 2011….) Justin Turner 0-4 bb, 2 …

To rebuild or to reload?

pile-of-money2

As we sit here waiting for this painful season to end and wait for the off-season to begin the Mets have quite a few questions that need to be answered. Unfortunately the biggest question is probably one we as fans have no way of knowing…. how did Bernard Madoff effect the finances of the team …
