Jose Reyes News

From the day my parents took me to the Philadelphia Phillies spring training complex in my hometown of Clearwater, Fla., I wanted to be the starting shortstop for the New York Mets.

Alex Cora is staying with the New York Mets, agreeing to a $2 million, one-year contract.

The Mets need many things this holiday season a ' a left fielder, a catcher, a healthy Jose Reyes and, perhaps most important, a really good starting pitcher to team up with Johan Santana and give the team some renewed credibility.

The New York Mets' 2009 campaign fell apart just as the playoff races heated up in the dog days of summer.

By any measure, 2009 was a disaster for the Mets . The year is not over yet, so there is still time for it to get worse, as the awards season has proven.

In 2009, the New York Mets were the worst baseball organization in the country, compiling the worst combined win-loss record from the minors all the way up to the bigs.

Though he batted a mere .256 with no homers, 15 doubles, 17 RBIs and 17 runs scored during a 58-game stint with Brooklyn the summer before last, Davis has since emerged as perhaps the top position player in the Mets' Minor League system.

For the 2010 season the lineup is still in the air. With the amount of injuries in 2009, we will have to wait and see what happens.

New York Mets fans, are the best fans because no matter what happens they are always loyal and proud of their team.

The Mets. Injuries. Fans. What does this mean? In 2009, the Mets had their first losing season in 4 years, despite starting the season as one of baseballs premiere teams.

While fans throughout New York City and Northern New Jersey celebrate the 27th World Championship of the New York Yankees, there is a strong and awful odor coming from somewhere nearby.

The Mets suffered through a 92-loss, injury-plagued 2009 season. But Omar Minaya, the team's general manager, is trying to avoid a repeat performance.

Ed Ryan, in a post to his blog for Mets Fever , discusses the market for free agent catchers and that Matt Treanor , Yorvit Torrealba , and Ramon Hernandez have all had their options declined by their respective teams.

Congratulations to the Yankees on their 27th World Championship. It is very well deserved.

Gone from the 2008 top fantasy shortstop list are Jose Reyes of the Mets, J.J. Hardy and Jhonny Peralta, but as usual Florida shortstop Hanley Ramirez leads the top-10 at the position.

With the major league Mets struggling and sporting an infield that's three-quarters rookies - Ty Wigginton at third, Jose Reyes at short and Jason Phillips at first - will the parent Mets be calling up more players from their farm system, possibly some former Brooklyn Cyclones? Comment .

Having lived through -- and enjoyed -- some horrible years as a Mets fan, I don't understand the panic that has set in because of the current circumstances: "Fire the manager" and "Fire the owner." Yes, they stunk this year.

I think this would be a strong starting lineup for the Mets -- if they're all healthy.

Have you ever taken a poll or a test, given rushed answers before you had a chance to think things through, and then spent the rest of the night wishing you had answered differently? I have.

Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans.
