Moose Stuck On 10

Mike Mussina pitched great again.   Poor guy is stuck on 10 wins.  Cliff Lee has 11. 

Let Moose start the All Star Game at home!

Brooklyn Psyche-Loans Owe City Money?

From the Post:

The Brooklyn Cyclones’ owner owes the city nearly $130,000 for underreported attendance and special-event income, city Comptroller William Thompson charged in an audit to be released today.

It’s alleged they under-reported by 28,000+ fans.   The team says that the city knows bleachers aren’t part of the count.    I wonder why that is?

The Mets Police suggest the city hire Howie Rose, who can continually claim there are “about 40,000” in the stands – that way the city can make money off the Wilpon Juniors.

No truth to the rumor that the Mets will move the New Orleans team to upper Manhattan where there supposedly was once a National League team with a familiar looking NY logo.

Might As Well Go For It

Spent a lot of time talking Mets with the fellas today and…

The Mets should just go for it

There’s nothing to trade.

You shouldn’t move OverReyes because he’s inexpensive, you shouldn’t move Maine, and if you move Wright you might as well move the team so the Marlins can move to Citi Field.

Beltran is probably the only piece you could get something for – but it’s hard enough to find three bodies to stand out there every night as it is – and ‘Coco Crisp and prospects’ doesn’t sound exciting.

There’s next to nothing to rebuild with. Next year some dead weight like Four Inning Pedro comes off the payroll so you’re looking at a free agent rebuild, which never works in Flushing.

Might as well go for it with Santana and Maine, pray for rain and hope the Phillies pull a Willie in September.

Empire State Building Conspiracy Against Mets

“The Empire State Building will celebrate the Yankees’ Subway Series win this Monday, June 30, 2008 by shining its world famous tower lights in Yankees blue and white. The Empire State Building split its tower lights this past weekend, with the building’s north/south sides lit in Yankees blue and white, while its east/west sides were lit in Mets blue and orange. With the Yankees winning this weekend’s Subway Series, Yankees colors will be displayed on all four sides of the tower on Monday.”
