The title is "LaRussa has litle doubt about McGwire's Integrity". Is it just me, or is it fucking hilarious that a convicted drunk driver, someone who endangered lives of innocent while driving half in the bag, is commenting on someone else's "integrity"? And we're supposed to give a shit about his thoughts on people's integrity? Hey pompous ass Tony, you're lucky no one was on the road at 3 am, or you'd be facing homicide charges. Please don't ever talk about what's right and wrong, ok, Tony?<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('130698','Rich'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('130698','Rich','Interesting article in today\'s Times.

I don't want Perez (or Pedro, for that matter--it doesn't matter to me that PM has a different agent) back on the team. Any one the four guys you mentioned (Randy Wolf, John Garland, Ben Sheets or Freddie Garcia), but especially two of them, would be better than OP and Pedro. Marty Noble, IMHO the only good thing about MLB.com and the Mets writer, is not high on OP either. OP's stats were bad last year and he was terribly inconsistent.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('130573','Eric M.'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('130573','Eric M.','I wish Omar would tell Boras to take a hike, period.

The Mets should offer Sheets a contract that's heavy on incentives. He pitches a full season with a good ERA, he gets megabucks. He's injured most the year, he gets much less. Have some different amounts for pitching 1/2 season, etc. They could offer a multi-year contract with these type of conditions.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('130456','Larry G'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('130456','Larry G','When healthy (big if), Sheets is very good.
