I am not claiming to be anything but a big fan of baseball who has followed baseball since I was 13 or 14. Over the last few years, starting in around 2001/2002, the team continues to make incredibly poor personnel moves that make me shake my head.
I am not going to recount every very obviously bad move that they have made. What's done is done. However, Omar is showing that he is just as bad as his predecessors. So the question is, why do the Wilpons continue to hire people who don't know baseball as GMs? Or is the problem the Wilpons themselves?
The latest move with Heilman to the pen, and Bannister to the rotation - making the starting 5: Pedro, Glavine, Trax, Zambrano, Bannister - shows yet again how short-sighted and moronic the front office of this team is. Why trade away Seo and Benson unless you're going to get more than fair value back? In neither case did the Mets come out the winner.
I understand that Benson was traded because of his wife, but he was married to her when the Mets acquired him, so why did they sign him if his wife bothered them? So you can chalk it up once again to short-sighted idiots running the team.
I still think the Braves will win the division again this year.
