There are more Mets on stretchers than in the line-up! 2009-06-22 15:24:59 http://forum.newsday.com/forums/post/68309/ 68309 Hey West Coast,Sorry to hear Beltran, was DL. Didn't know, that makes 3 of 4 core this year, and I guess playing 158 of 162 catches up. I never liked playing them so much.Worried this would happen.I think it's time we either bring up some young talent and see what they got, or pray for the All Star break and see what deals can be made.I'd prefer to bring up kids until say, Delgado, Reyes or Putz, even Wagner come back. I ' like to see Ike Davis, Holt, and others we got for now.Had we not been frugal last year and signed a Juan Rivera or Felepe Lopez for relatively cheap FA prices, we would be 5-10 games better in the standings right now.Considering the history of this team with injuries, considering FA's came cheap this year, the Mets made a hugh mistake.Bring up the kids. Give them a taste of whats to come.Let's see what they got. 2009-06-22 18:41:15 RONHUNT33 <forumuser@vmix.com> http://forum.newsday.com/forums/post/68300/ 68300 Now that Beltran is on the D.L. this season looks more and more like a M.A.S.H. episode than ever.
