benson and Zambrano are not aces yet. The Mets have a VERY good rotation, but to say that they have 4 aces is a real stretch. |

The word "Ace" is reserved to the best pitcher on the staff Justin. You can only have one of those, no matter how good the others are! |

I told everybody 1 day after the trade that Zambrano could dominate games....and you all looked at me like I was f*ckin insane making up a bunch of sh*t. |

Anyone can dominate individual games. I'd like to see a few great starts in a row. |

The Braves staff for years was considered to have "4 or 5 aces" |

That's just stupid commentator logic. An ace is the best pitcher on the staff. If you don't have a best pitcher, you don't have an ace. Even though that might not be such a bad thing! |

Joe Buck pissed me off last week, he went out of his way to absolutley destroy the Mets on both trades, talking about how Wigginton (and his .187 w/ RISP and his defense) was a huge part of the team and how they were already 6 games out when they made the trade, failing to even recognize the widely known fact (atleast in NY) that these trades had very little to do with how the Mets finish this season and alot to do with the next 4. Its his jb not to sound retarted when he speaks, that pissed me off |

What? That was actually the part he was right about. That part was scripted! The unscripted parts are where he gets into trouble. |

Why? Which part do you disagree with? 1) We could have just signed Benson in the offseason if we liked him so much. 2) Zambrano, though talented, was as much of a "prospect" than Kazmir and is probably more likely to be injury prone. 3) Wiggy, even with his RISP problems, was one of the best hitters on the team. Valent/Zeile/Phillips or Wiggy? To me the choice is clear. And what about giving up Huber for free? The annoying part of Joe Buck saying what he said was simply that it's pretty damn obvious the Mets got raped and he was merely rubbing it in to Met fans. |
