My wife and I are trying to pick out what kind of floor we want to put down in our kitchen. I have no trouble with the decision but my wife does. Different floor type, colors and patterns can turn into a very long process that at times I will admit can be a bit tiresome. But a decision will be made and I am sure it will be questioned from time to time. When August 1’st rolls around decisions are going to be made by many baseball teams in terms of whether or not they are going to be buyers or sellers. In other words are we in it or out of it. As far as the Mets go: My thoughts, they're sellers. Many of you might say it’s too early to tell, well no it’s not. On paper this team looks great on the field they just don’t have it. Eric Chavez has to take over as the hitting coach, and we have to get rid of the idea that analytics are the way to hit a baseball. I know Willie Mays and Tony Gwynn never used a computer. And when I hear Steve Cohen whispering to Bob Nightengale that he is going to hire David Stern as VP of President of Baseball operations can a rebuild be far off. We know the infield is set for the foreseeable future, but the other pieces like DH, the outfield, and one more big bat need some attention. Two things happened during the off season, Edwin Diaz ruptured his Patella Tendon, and we lost out on the Carlos Correa sweepstakes. Once that happened our confidence and our credibility diminished. So who goes? Vogelbach, Canha, Marte, Escobar, and Ottavino. Sorry kids this just isn't our year.

Consistency Is The Hallmark Of Greatness
Well if you are a professional athlete consistency is truly the hallmark of greatness. If you are a baseball fan you know that a player can fail almost 70% of the time and still make it to the hall of fame. Over the course of the last 3 weeks we Met fans have watched as it appeared our team was doomed for the entire season. Couldn’t hit or pitch and lost to the some of the worst teams in the league. I’m not questioning the fact that teams go on streaks and win 10 in a row and then lose 12 out of 16. What I want to know is why. Are they tired, is it a loss of concentration, or is it just the odds. With our Mets it seems like the entire club goes into a slump all at once. Tommy Lasorda once said that out of 162 games you win 50 and you lose 50, what you do with the other fifty determines your fate for the season. My thought is a loss is a loss and you can’t win the pennant in April but you can certainly loss it. My hope is that being swept by Detroit doesn’t come back to haunt us in September.

69, 86, And The Current Team
If you are a Met’s fan you read things all over facebook and twitter about how this team is falling apart, and about those that are looking for heads to roll.
You also here about how Steve Cohen has set the team apart with this enormous payroll. Then again you hear about something that I found to be alarming, and
not sure if it’s true but, if it is only one head should roll and that’s Rob Manfred. Listen in and we'll tell you why.
