Anyone up for a points bet that Mets don't make the playoffs?

Another let down season for the mets...

Doug · 02-14-10, 12:23 AM

.500 type team, if that

I'd be stunned if the Mets made the playoffs. Just don't see it. They need way too many things to go perfectly right to be a contender.

What odds are you offering? Do you want Mets making playoffs or missing them?

You mean the Mets to get more wins than the Marlins.

This would be the easiest money ever made

No wayyy..I think that you are wrong about the Mets. I think that you should reconsider betting with someone bc both of u will lose money

ericthegangster · 02-24-10, 01:26 AM

I think that the Mets will have a good year and be in great shape to win the NL wild card at the end of the year...

and then go down in a blazing inferno

stealthyburrito · 02-24-10, 01:40 AM

give them 85, 86 wins top this year

Glitch · 02-24-10, 01:43 AM

probably already responded to this but i really think they are the sleeper team of the year and have a very strong chance to take the whole thing. i know im gettin in on a future bet

NYMNYG10 · 02-24-10, 05:43 PM

im obviously biased but this year is big, everyone has something to prove, minaya and manuel will be fired if they dont make the playoffs, reyes may not get resigned, 1 of wright santana and beltran will be traded, there will be major changes and everyone knows it. They have the best lineup in the nL except the Phillies maybe, if there pitching can hold itself i think they can take the wild card i dont expect them to take the division.
David Wright is very motivated, watch out for the mets

NYMNYG10 · 02-27-10, 06:43 PM

this team gets hyped every year, but i like what i see and hear from spring training so far, Ike Davis taking a run at Daniel Murphy's job, Wrights power, Francouer's attitude toward the game. Perez improving, i like it all

JohnMellencamp · 02-27-10, 07:20 PM

Let's be honest. The Mets suck.

13th Inning · 02-27-10, 11:19 PM

I've been a Mets fan since I was very small, truly a diehard, and I can say with total confidence that they have no shot at the playoffs and will be lucky if they finish 3rd in the division.

They have no definite positives. All positives fall under the category of "ifs". They just need too much to go right, and that is no way to win a division.

They need a ton to go right to be a contender. It could happen but it's not all that likely.

Yep. I agree.

NYMNYG10 · 02-28-10, 12:22 PM

every team has their ifs, the mets jsut have way to many of them

Glitch · 02-28-10, 05:38 PM

you guys are living in the past- you will most likely be unpleasantly surprised fading the mets to start off the season.

not only do they still have carlos, carlos, david, santana still but they've acquired two players that had very effective bats for their teams last year in Jason Bay and Gary Matthews Jr....they are going to be a force to be reckonned with....their pitching rotation leaves a lot to be desired but they still have johan santana and mike pelfrey who pitched well last year and their bats will be able to pick up a lot of the slack.

His last 2 seasons were poor, but everything else is about right.

NYMNYG10 · 03-01-10, 04:27 PM

yeah this team has the ability, everyone knows that, idk about mathews jr. but i am excited to see Bay hit the ball, Jose hit a tripple today in intersquad ball, cant complain with that although it was off of Tobi Stoner.

jmush · 03-01-10, 04:41 PM

loved jay bay with the sox but dont think he was worth the money he got..good fastball hitter but can hit a curve as well as pedro cerrano

Glitch · 03-01-10, 04:44 PM

i think jason bay was one of the players of the year last year.

and as far as gary jr is concerned- you are correct- id never seen any numbers but i just knew he'd come threw a few clutch times when i needed the angels to finish off a parlay. .336 on base percentage and 50 rbis only 4 homeruns.....some of that stuff is ok but nothin too spectacular.

jjgold · 03-01-10, 04:45 PM

average pitching and hitting

santana is a way above average pitcher and they have some way above average hitters. just need some contributions from some other people and that is i think the cause of everyones disbelief.

as a side note- they say that park is one of the hardest to hit balls out of- sounds like they need some outfielders

did they fix the bullpen??

no im actually worried about K-Rod, his miserable season got hidden by all the all-stars getting injured

stealthyburrito · 03-07-10, 01:19 AM

mets finish 4th, comfortably ahead of the nats but devastatingly far behind the marlins

Jones10 · 03-07-10, 08:47 AM

All I have to say about the mets...
