Remember all Met fans should come to PNC Park and sit behind home plate for 27 bucks, park downtown for 5 bucks walk over the Clemente bridge and buy lots of beer on the promenade before the game for 2-3 bucks a bottle. Then everyone can chant for Delcos and make him a celebrity! You are so right Scoop…. In 2009 it will be cheaper to go to an NFL game than to rip-off field.

Wed, 09 Jan 2008 02:41:15 +0000 http://mets.lohudblogs.com/2008/01/05/blockbuster/#comment-31787 Hey Scott. Omar spent most of the off season a year agochasing Zito, and not even trying to bite on guys like Meche and Lilly. If he had shelled ut the $$ on any one of them this team would have been in the playoffs. So yes, I think the team was definitely to cheap. And two I could care less if they pay a little much because if they win they get it back in spades. They didn't want to spend 7 years on Zito or 4 years on Meche or Lilly. So we had a kid who wasn't ready in the rotation and followed with a bunch of cheap crap vice one decent guy. So stop knocking us when we see the true picture of an organiztion too cheap to spend what the market is spending or too stupid to see it didn't have the tools to repeat its 07 win season. When Shea was empty, Wilpon was ina panic and opened the wallet but now..... The Mets are cheap. The 2007/20008 Mets are definitely cheap. Hence getting two very cheap , mediocre players from DC. Hence, not going after any of the quality relievers on the market, hence not getting a decent starter last winter when some were available. And the length line is pure crap. The Mets wouldn't give Bradford 3 years but when they got desperate they sure did with a real bum like Schoeneweis. And this year there are no good starters out there, so you say what do want Omar to do? Well, he had his chance a year ago and slept with Boras and screwed the fans.

There is no reason why they can't spend like the Sox. Maybe they can't go to Yankee $ land, but the Sox is possible. And the only way to get Santana is to go to Sox $ levels. And the worse part about not spending like the Sox or maybe the Yanks is not even the $. I believe it is b/c they like to follow all the "rules" that Selig lays down about holding the size of contracts to a "reasonable" level. This is clear in that the Mets won't go over the lux tax salary level or as was stated by Omar that they won't overspend on draft picks (which has hurt FS) b/c Selig has rules about how much t spend on picks (and Mets about the only team to follow this). Plus, everytime Selig needs some team to do a PR stunt (like this Israeli thing), the Mets are first in line. I don't mind it except, Mets always do it. Never the Yanks, Sox, etc. So if you want clarification. Then I call them cheap not b/c they don't outspend most teams but b/c they don't spend as much as they could.

Maybe it is why I am a Giants fan and not a Jets fan like most Mets fans are....I can only take so much pain from one NY team.
