So, let me understand
this. Ruben Tejada pisses everybody off last
year, comes to camp out of shape, hits Mendoza, and is given a second chance
after being assigned to a Detroit fat camp with Lucas
Duda. Duda is now in camp. And Tejada isn’t. Again. Isn’t this where the
Captain should step in? To be honest, ‘early to camp’ in this case was defined
by Duda’s arrival date. Everything else looks late.
Exactly when is this
team going to man up and take responsibility for themselves? Two questions…
one, was it so hard for Tejada to figure out he should have flown from Detroit
non-stop to Orlando and then catch a taxi to Port St. Lucie? And two, where is
the genius Met brass-man that should have been assigned to Tejada to make sure
this was done?
Are we teaching lessons
here so, if Tejada fails the test, Omar Quintanilla is
the winner?
Is thus a game we’re
playing here? I’m sorry, I thought it was a business and Tejada was being paid
seven figures to hit Mendoza.
Sandy… open the window and tilt the house. Let the
shit fall out please.

JUST SIGN DREW AND MOVE ON.
Is there any chance that Tovar can at least hit over .250 and play above average defense?
@ Ernest
Play above average defense? No doubt in my mind he could.
Hit .250+.....Not a chance.
Ernest -
I actually believe that Tovar could, but he's the kind of AAAA player that will only get a chance if someone is injured
That last line, Mack, great stuff.
I don't mean to sound like a Monday morning QB, but if the Mets signed Reyes as they should have two years ago, we wouldn't be talking about Tejada and perhaps they become interesting in 2014.
Moreover, if they sign N. Cruz rather than C. Young, then we're talking about a rather interesting lineup. Nevertheless, its still February and a good time to dream.
Of course, you cannot help but 2nd guess this franchise on most of their recent acquisitions or refusal to sign players who could bring a championship back to Flushing.
