2009 Mets Battle cry

“It takes more than five superstars to win a World Series. Tonight was a total team effort. Stokes comes in, in that situation, and gets the best hitter in baseball to hit in to a double play. That’s what it’s going to take, you know. Fernando Martinez gets on a plane, shows up in the seventh, and gets a bunt down… Murphy hits a home run. You know, it’s a total team effort. If you’re gonna talk about team wins, tonight was a great example and that’s what we need to do.” : source Metsblog

Mets still thinking about Lohse

The Star Ledger today reported that the Mets are still considering signing free agent Kyle Lohse. Since there isn't strong demand for Lohse the team is taking it's time assessing the pitchers it already has. If El Duque can't pitch and Pelfrey starts to struggle as he did at the end of last years spring training, I could see signing him. It seems like names that won't go away seem to end up here in the long run, Pelfrey pitches tomorrow if he's lights out maybe he can put this to rest.


The Mets haven't ruled out signing free-agent Kyle Lohse, believing some additional rotation depth would do them some good. But they don't feel there's any hurry to get him into camp. Interest in Lohse around the majors has been light. source Star Ledger
