I've been dreading yesterday for like 3 years, and i watched the guy cry at his retirement press conference... and I felt nothing. Not that i'm not bummed, but i basically played the scenerio in my head so many times that it barely landed with me. It's been so long that i'm basically disconnected from David. he's up there talking about his daughters and I'm sitting there like, "i didn't even know he had kids." Feel like David Wright has been out of my life for ages now, sadly.

this also reinforced the fact nothing can get me to Citifield. I won't even go watch David Wright's last game. I've been there once since the World Series and couldn't care less.

Resellers trying to cash out :mjcry:
Could have had tickets for $6, I asked my wife if she wanted to go, she couldn't make her mind up because it be a late night for my son and I would meet her there because I'm coming straight from work. By the time she made her mind up tickets were $50. I even told her I need to know immediately because the price of tickets was about to jump in a matter of minutes. Moral of the story is don't get married

So is it confirmed he’s retiring?

Yea. I watched his press conference yesterday. Couldn’t make it all the way through.

They asked him bluntly ‘so.. this is it? Forever? For good?’

And he took a couple of seconds to let the question sink in.. and then said (I’m paraphrasing here) ‘it has to be. My body won’t let me go out there anymore’

:mjcry:

That shyt hurt brehs.

I couldn’t make it all the way through.

Any realistic way we’re good next year?
It’s safe to say the Wilpons’ won’t sign Harper or Machado.

Yes. You have three pitcher's that can go out and win any day they're out on the mound. The Mets had a good second half with Conforto and Rosario coming around. They need to strengthen the bullpen and try to move dead weight. We'll see what the new GM does.

I really think bullpen aside, the biggest need is a good glove in center who is also a right handed batter. Pollock makes some sense but with the Cespedes contract it probably won't happen. Trade Jay Bruce hopefully too.

A couple weeks ago Mad Dog did a interview and was asked about this.. he said he thinks the Mets can complete next year :lupe:


At first I thought the Wipons were nuts for thinking they can complete next year but the Mets have been decent in the second half, and their only 10 games below 500 :lupe:
