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

"Don't feel sorry for the Metropolitans." - Alex Cora, yelling what seems to have become his motto for this team : source NJ.Com

Jerry wants Holliday

The Denver Post is reporting a quote from Newsday of Jerry Manuel speaking about Matt Holliday. I have to agree with Manuel, Holliday would be a huge asset to this team but the Mets don't have the players to pull the deal off. Plus there are other teams that are very interested in Holliday, the Angels are willing to move Gary Matthews Jr to make room for Holliday just as an example......

His team in need of outfield help given the uncertain health of Ryan Church and Moises Alou, Mets manager Jerry Manuel revealed his affection for Matt Holliday, who extended his hitting streak to 12 games. "It's kind of a ticklish situation. If you go and get Holliday, I can take that. I think I can find him a spot," he told Newsday. source Denver post

home/road splits? Despite the fact that he's better at Coors..which, c'mon, it's Coors, he still has great numbers on the road. It'd be a huge mistake not to get him.
