Did Omar actually make this deal, or was he forced to at gun point? He must have been trying to convince his captors that Mo Vaughn and Robbie Alomar were out there, but he gave in and he, gasp, actually got a guy, who maybe, just maybe, is under 35? Oh my God! Saliva test for Omar, saliva test for Omar!!! Nixon is the anti-Met, he's always dirty and perhaps a step in the right direction.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('69822','Rich'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('69822','Rich','They got Trot Nixon-he\'s under 40!!!!!!!!!

Management will always look towards the manager when it comes time to dealing with a losing team. I've said it before but you have to look at the team not the manager. Alou-Out of commission Beltran- Hot and cold Church-Out of commission Delgado-When not clueless, fizzles in the clutch Castillo- mediocre slap hitter Reyes- exciting, mostly good job, not a very intelligent ballplayer Wright-hard to knock. Not cooking on all cylinders but excellent Schneider-Competent All but two starting pitchers either hurt or unreliable. By the way, real Mets fans know that even though Wagner saved many games during his stay here, they were by the skin of his teeth and involved the opposition smacking the hell out of the ball. If Wagner becomes hittable again...forget about it.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('69798','spo'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('69798','spo','Yeah.

Alou-Out of commission
Beltran- Hot and cold
Church-Out of commission
Delgado-When not clueless, fizzles in the clutch
Castillo- mediocre slap hitter
Reyes- exciting, mostly good job, not a very intelligent ballplayer
Wright-hard to knock. Not cooking on all cylinders but excellent

All but two starting pitchers either hurt or unreliable.
