Snagged for the same thing in April.o_O This guy is an idiot.

Not going to argue that. Alderson (Mets GM) didn't say it but the announcers on the game have said they would be very surprised if he ever threw another pitch for the team.
 
How can you hate a team. Dislike yes but hate. Strong words considering you probably have no relationship with the team. I'm a Yankees fan but I don't hate the Red Sox. I dont root for them. And I hope they lose every game though.

Some would say they have had a relationship with a team. Going to the games, watching them on TV, buying their merchandise... Doing this year in and year out, researching them, memorizing the players stats. Dedication, time spent, along with money spent. Getting autographs etc. To me that could be a relationship, one sided of course, but still a relationship. :D

I only really "hate" two teams, but that is on the football side. I dislike the Sox's, but I love the history and watching the Sox's and Yank's battle it out year after year. Of course this year has been especially nice given the standings of both teams! :D

The Mets have traded for Brewers OF Carlos Gomez in exchange for right-hander Zach Wheeler and shortstop Wilmer Flores according to reports.
 
According to my Twitter feed the Cardinals season is about over.
Meh, it sucks, but we did just fine without Holliday for a month.

Our problem isn't going to be losing Holliday. Our problem is that the rest of our offense seems to have disappeared.

So I hear. A guy who won't pitch for a year yet and a guy that's a better 2B than SS but was played at SS much of the season so far for a guy that can fill a possible gap in the OF (Lagares having TJ surgery NOW?) and has an upside offensively? I'll take it. I liked Gomez when he was with the Mets. The only concern is there's no backup SS unless they bring up Reynolds or feel Wright can fill that role when he returns.

Appears Flores just found out he was traded, and hasn't been taken out of the game yet. The **** kind of move is that.
 
Only the Mets could botch a trade this badly. The trade for Brewers OF Carlos Gomez died when the Brewers saw Wheeler's medical records.

I wonder what could be in his medical records that killed it. The guy had Tommy Johns a couple months ago, what exactly were the Brewers expecting?

Twitter is now reporting that the failed physical was for Gomez hip. Rosenthal is reporting that the Mets backed out of the deal.
 
It was just rumors, it wasnt official. it was not botched.
They were not rumors, the deal was in place, The Mets pulled the plug at the last minute.

Your GM let your short stop hang in the wind on the field.
