Rovers Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 So, today the Mets traded their two top pitching prospects and Ty Wiggington for Benson and Zambrano. Zambrano is the wildest pitcher in the majors, Benson is a .500 pitcher, and Wiggington is the only guy in the lineup who hasnt slumped all year and leads the team in game winning hits. World Series, here we come! Maybe in another decade, but only if things break right..... :bawling: :thumbdown: ACK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selly Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 As a Braves fan (since the bad old days of the mid-80's) I have only one thing to say: [Nelson Muntz Voice]"HA-ha"[/Nelson] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ball bruisers Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 LOL Selly. Couldn't agree more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegFuJohnson Posted July 31, 2004 Share Posted July 31, 2004 I think those weren't bad moves for the Mets. We don't know anything about Kazmir. Will he be as good as Pulsipher? Wigginton had no place to play anyway, you want to keep a utility guy on the bench instead of a starter? Now, things change if Benson leaves next year, but if they sign him, they'll have a solid rotation next year, and they can try to buy whatever they need to fill in holes in the offense.

Rovers Posted July 31, 2004 Author Share Posted July 31, 2004 Selly and bb, yea sure , but we kicked yer arse last night! Oh, no, we lost, didnt we? Well, kiss me butt! Who's in first place! Oh, yea, that would be the Braves too, wouldnt it? Well, that's all history, WE have Benson! :appl: He's our starter tonight! We'll win tonight, fer sure! Um, OK, so we'll get our butts kicked again.... acouple more years of this, and I'll qualify to be a.... Cubs fan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted August 1, 2004 Author Share Posted August 1, 2004 See, with these new studs in our starting rotation, we are SURE.... to be swept by the Braves this weekend! Hey, Benson said he wanted to sign with the Mets, er ....Mutts BEFORE the trade. Now that we have him, we will never get him signed! So, we lost a prospect, and now he knows just how BAD Matsui is at short (he practically ran into the outfield today to get a Baltimore chop, instead of short hopping it) and well..... go ahead, kick me some more, Selly and bb. I can take it. :g-sick: :doah: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
