The Headcase That Is John Maine

Posted: 14th April 2010 by Nick Carlo in MLB
The Mets' pitching rotation is their biggest key to their season.  Mike Pelfrey, Oliver Perez, and John Maine are all key players for the Mets this year.  If two of those three pitchers have solid years then that will deeply help the team.  As of now, two of those guys performed while the other didn't.  Mike Pelfrey and Oliver Perez both had good first starts.  On the other hand, John Maine's ...

Posted: 9th December 2009 by Nick Carlo in MLB
The New York Mets have one of the best center fielders in all of baseball. He is an amazing five-tool outfielder who consistently puts up great numbers. He is a real pro.

David Wright, is one of the best third basemen in the game of baseball.á The New York Mets are lucky to have a player like him, but he still has his flaws.

Wright hits for a high average, hits home runs, and steals ...
