I'm glad they are keeping their pie holes shut. I would rather see some action than hear that same old song and dance about how they will fix the team. We already know they will try to fix the team, I don't need to hear it from them. Trust me, they all know that parts of the team are pathetic and I'm sure they will try their best to fix it. Paul, I LOVE Murphy's swing, reminds me of jeffries a bit but I'd like to see his stats with 350+ AB's before I buy into him being the next big thing. Guys, we all know that $30 mil is coming off the books and with the new stadium, Minaya will have many blank checks to fix the team. Everyone just needs to take a Xanax and relax<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('115447','Frank from Jersey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('115447','Frank from Jersey','\"yes we know this team needs some changes and we are commited to do just that\"\r\n\r\nSteve, to be honest, I don\'t think Mets fans really want to hear that same line of BS again from management.

Steve, to be honest, I don’t think Mets fans really want to hear that same line of BS again from management. I’m glad they are keeping their pie holes shut. I would rather see some action than hear that same old song and dance about how they will fix the team. We already know they will try to fix the team, I don’t need to hear it from them. Trust me, they all know that parts of the team are pathetic and I’m sure they will try their best to fix it.

Paul, I LOVE Murphy’s swing, reminds me of jeffries a bit but I’d like to see his stats with 350+ AB’s before I buy into him being the next big thing.

Guys, we all know that $30 mil is coming off the books and with the new stadium, Minaya will have many blank checks to fix the team. Everyone just needs to take a Xanax and relax

A blank check for K-Rod. A pat on the back and some lovely parting gifts ($4 mill) for Delgado... An infielders glove (3B) for Murphy... A first basemans' mitt for Wright... The drugs that the D-backs GM is on, if he is really willing to trade Byrnes for The Gimp...not to mention a very fast plane to get him out there, before minds get changed. And I will be glad to add Pierzynski...is he a free agent? I am tired of seeing Castro spend three fourths of the season on the DL.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('115352','Paul'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('115352','Paul','Here is the off season shopping list for Omar...\r\n\r\nA blank check for K-Rod.\r\nA pat on the back and some lovely parting gifts ($4 mill) for Delgado...\r\nAn infielders glove (3B) for Murphy...\r\nA first basemans\' mitt for Wright...\r\nThe drugs that the D-backs GM is on, if he is really willing to trade Byrnes for The Gimp...not to mention a very fast plane to get him out there, before minds get changed.\r\nAnd I will be glad to add Pierzynski...is he a free agent?

The only solution here is a boycott. Fred and Jeff need to know that Met fans are mad as hell and not gonna take it any more. If you but 2009 Mets tix and/or gear, you are part of the problem, not the solution. Let Fred see his Ebbets Field redux half empty the first warm night in June and he will rethink this mess.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('115347','Stork'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('115347','Stork','But that\'s good.
