The New York Mets Big Off-Season Acquisition Might Be…Mike Cameron?

So here’s what I’m reading….

The Mets fear John Lackey because of arm issues.  Lackey made 27 starts in 2009.   Santana made 25.  Lackey will make a great third starter for the Yankees.  Perhaps the Mets can sign whoever the Japanese John Lackey is…or explain to us that someone is an inexpensive version of Lackey.

The Daily News says that Jason Bay is too expensive and that the Mets may sign Mike Cameron.   (The Mets are loading themselves up to win the 2001 (no typo) World Series.

There’s talk of a three way trade that finally rids us of Luis Castillo (good analysis on SNY last night that he will never be loved here) and bring NY Lyle Overbay.

I hope Omar is calling San Diego 4 times a day about Gonzales.  I hope Omar is calling Toronto 4 times a day about Halladay.  As for Holliday, he doesn’t want to play in NY so stay far away.

Mike Cameron.  The Magic is Back.  Baseball Like It Oughta Be.  Your Season Has Come.

I forgot about the jackets with the names on the back.  They seem very retro now, maybe these could be seen around the new place in 2010.  Thanks to 5w for sending this one over.

Mets Walk-Offs Top Mets Home Runs Of All Time

I’m a big fan of Mets Walk-Offs, and they have finished their list of the top Mets home runs of all time.   I’ve been a slacker about this series, it’s really cool and I wanted to discuss it and nitpick it (with love, and just for discussions sake)

So I will leave my personal opinions aside (quick, what’s the most overrated home run in Mets history…) and just send you to the link.

If you have never spent time on Walk-Offs check it out.  I like blogs that do their own thing, and this one is unique.
