Citi takes a bailout from the federal government. They buy the naming rights to the new Mets stadium. The Mets go out and sign K-Rod and Putz. So my tax dollars go to making Mets a much better team? As a Phillies fan, i am not pleased! So let me get this straight…

Now the Mets still have work to do for these noble reporters, and must trade for people named "Dud" and "Jesus Christ again?"

D'Antoni's no longer there? and the Mets overpay for a guy whose arm will fall off shortly after K-Rod's does and he's moved up to the closer role.

They traded a couple of fringe guys (Heilman/Chavez/Smith) and some decent prospects for a stud reliever, Reed to offset Chavez and Green to offset Smith. Putz and KRod at the back of the rotation should be dominant I know no one comes here for actual sports analysis but I think the Mets are the big winners.
