Real Quick Mets Rant

I really dont want to get started because I could go on all day. My point is too Phillies fans who are so thrilled to beat the Mets. I really don't want to sound like a sore loser but the Mets really are a triple A team. The defense displayed and the horrendous attempts the Mets made at trying to hit the ball are laughable.

For Phillies fans, yea sure be happy. You just swept your rival so I wont take that away from you. But if you seriously think this Phillies team has a chance to do something in October again, you are kidding yourself.

Rodrigo Lopez, Jamie Moyer and Joe Blanton would get their tits ripped by any other team with a major league lineup. (This includes most if not all Major League teams besides the Mets) There is a reason that the Phillies had a terrible record in June. No matter how good their lineup is, and trust me its one of the best in the league, the Phillies pitching will not lead them to any postseason glory. Hamels isn't half the pitcher he was last year. Myers is out for the year. and like I said, Jamie Moyer can only take you so far. Joe Blanton sucks. I dont care what he did on Sunday. And Rodrigo Lopez, need I say more. at least Chan Ho Park is in your bullpen. Lidge hasnt and wont repeat last years second half success.

Regardless, the Mets suck. I just wish we had an excuse, like we are a small market or something.

But yea the sad facts are that we have the second highest payroll and play in the biggest market and still have a triple A team on the field.

Omar Minaya: You have spent the second most money in the league and the product on the field is terrible. I really have nothing against these players but if you look at who is out there, only David Wright is a true everyday major league starter.

Santos: Backup Catcher
Schinder: Backup Catcher
Murphy: Platoon player who cant field and cant hit
Castillo: In the waining years of his career. should be a backup or the 8th hitter on a team
Cora: Backup
Sheff ,Tatis and Reed: platoon players and great bench options
Church: I guess you can call him an everyday major league player.
F-Mart: 20 years old and clearly needs more time in the minors.

Hopefully the Dodgers sweep the Mets and all us Mets fans can enjoy watching this train wreck. It is far better than trying to root for this team to win.

I also love the people that are like "o well we have played this poorly and are only 4 games back." By the allstar game that number will be 7 and the team will be no better.

Hey at least Oliver Perez is starting on Wednesday. For the sake of the guy I hope he pitches well but i hope he gets rocked just so Omar Minaya looks like a bigger idiot.

Ok so that wasn't that quick.
