The Mets need Bugs Bunny…….

Ok, Carlos Beltran is out at least until the All-Star break – and it sounds like it could be longer to be honest. Immediately almost on queue in synchronous voice, the NY metropolitan area airwaves and print media gravitate to the allure of Matt Holiday. Blogs and baseball publications across America; same thing.

Let’s amuse ourselves for a moment and say that the Mets are actually looking into it. Are the Mets ready to give up Bobby Parnell? How about Fernando Martinez? Mets gonna say bye bye to their baby? Look, you are not going to be able to get the guy for a box of donuts. It ain’t gonna happen.

To complicate matters the Mets (a virtual M*A*S*H unit roster) have additional voids to fill. Jose Reyes (they say All-Star break, sounds more like season to me. They admit they have no clue what’s going on there. Where’s Eddie Van Halen when you need him “Somebody Get me a Doctor…”). Delgado, Maine, Perez, Putz. How do you replace all these guys?

You only have 25 guys! They are without 6 of them that they counted on? They are missing 24% of their team! Try dealing with something in your life minus 24%. Take a look at your paycheck this week and subtract 24% from it. You gonna be able to function ok going forward on that?

What the Mets need is Bugs Bunny…….
"Bugs Bunny first base, Bugs Bunny second base, Bugs Bunny third base, Bugs Bunny short stop, Bugs Bunny left field, Bugs Bunny center field, Bugs Bunny right field, Bugs Bunny pitching, Bugs Bunny catching…………………………………………………………."

Jim (no relation to the dead Door’s guy) is a self proclaimed rotisserie expert. Jim has been participating in an serious Ultra-Rotisserie league (you can protect some minor leaguers too) at $2,600 per team instead of $260 (similar to Ultimate Franchise Baseball ™) for the past 17 years and has finished in the money 14 times with 8 First place finishes and over $260,000 in total winnings over the 17 year period. While the world is full of institutions and people that come with disclaimers on how past performance is no guarantee of future results, Jim is brazen enough to claim that it will be in your best interest to follow his advice going forward. He’ll write it, we’ll publish it and we shall see………
