Saturday and Sunday were depressing and the guys you named are clearly, to quote SNL, "The Not Ready For Prime Time Players". Lee's start of 8 strike outs was in a row something of a MLB recordJackofVirginia post=434369 said:Looks like the Mets have their usual pitiful minor league prospects. Please tell me that Maybin, Tovar, and Lee are not the best we have.
Watching the Met games now without the starters is depressing.

I had Mets season tickets (30 game strips) for 3 the last seasons at Shea (in the loge behind home plate - year one was $28 per game per ticket, year 3 I think $35) When they built Citifield, best they could offer was left field landing, which is the equivalent of bleacher seats. When a fly ball is hit to the warning track in left, you lost sight of the outfielder and the ball. When it was hit down the line in right, there were some blind spots where you lost the ball. Then you also can't see the main scoreboard from the seats I had. Gigantic waste of money and as nice a building as it is, those design flaws make some seats suck.gman post=434754 said:I just tried buying tix for the Mets-Yanks game on Sept 10 when I'm back in town. $216 each for the outfield!

The question is, do they have anyone to replace him?
If you can't at least temporarily replace your 5th starter with your top minor league starter than your farm system sucks.JackofVirginia post=434890 said:BrooklynRed post=434887 said:How much longer do the Mets let Peterson throw "batting practice".
