Newsbreakers

October 25, 2009

Via the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post's Bart Hubbuch believes the Mets will cut their payroll "substantially" this offseason.

Our View:

This is even after it was revealed last week that not only did Bernie Madoff not bankrupt the Mets, he actually made them money. It looks like the Amazins' arduous 2009 campaign might have just been a pre-cursor to more bad times, and not an aberration.

October 5, 2009

Mets executive Fred Wilpon promised on Monday that the team's 2010 payroll will not be reduced, according to MetsBlog.com.

Our View:

He said the payroll will be "what Omar needs," and that there is no limit. This dampens some conspiracy theorists' claims that Bernie Madoff stole all the Mets money, but does not show that they have grown any more adept at building a complete, winning ball club. All the money they've thrown at their lineup holes the past three seasons have brought exactly zero playoff wins, but instead of focusing on rebuilding their decimated farm system it looks as if they'll keep spending freely, hoping something sticks. Whatever figure they raise their 2010 payroll to, it will still include the $36 million they gave Oliver Perez last offseason.

October 3, 2009

David Wright is not in the Mets lineup on Saturday, according to Newsday. Fernando Tatis is taking his spot at third.

Our View:

It is being labeled as just a routine day off by the team. But with there being just two days left in the season, could it really be a routine day off?

September 30, 2009

Despite David Wright not striking out for the first time in six games, Wednesday ended up being another nightmare of a night for the Mets in a nightmarish 2009 season. Given a 4-2 lead entering the ninth inning, closer Francisco Rodriguez allowed five runs, including a walk-off grand slam, as New York lost 7-4 to the Nationals.

Our View:

After having his average climb as high as .326 on September 5, Wright is now hitting just .304, and is in danger of finishing with a sub-.300 average for the first time since his rookie season of 2004 (just 69 games played).

September 27, 2009

David Wright is not the Mets' lineup on Sunday against the Marlins.

Our View:

Fernando Tatis is manning third base in his absence. It is just a day of rest for Wright, who is not hurt.
