In an effort to prove that Daniel Murphy has the side-to-side mobility required to be an everyday second baseman even after his injury, I present you with exhibit A. Just look at that range to both sides! As before, animation in the comments section.

Here is my next installment of players who needed their own .gifs. While i'll probably never top the Dickey gif I posted last week, I hope you'll enjoy this one as well, as it seemed to be begging to be made.

Had to do one more of these things, this one took forever, but I'm quite happy with the product. As with the previous animated picture, the .gif will be posted in the comments section.

I've decided to pick up some new skills in my spare time, and someone around here suggested this place was in need of more Mets related animated gifs. here is my first (horrendously) crude attempt at creating one. The main images won't animate, so I'll have the first frame there, and the real animation as a post below.

AAOP: The Keithsmoustache Approach
Here is my Amazin Ave. Offseason Plan for 2010 (which I spent most of my day planning instead of actually working). This year was certainly challenging given the restraints on how much we could...

Mets offering Pedro Feliciano arbitration
42The Mets are apparently offering arbitration to Pedro, I kind of hope the Benoit deal makes him decline and try for the open market so we can get a pick for him. He's been great, but that arm can't keep this up forever. On a side note, the Cards picked up Valdes the other day, so our best hitter is now off the market. Going to be a different looking bullpen next year.

Mets sign Brazoban
31Looks like we took a flier on another pitcher out of the Mexican Leagues, this time Yhency Brazoban. Lets see if we can scrapheap ourselves something good.

I've had better: A look at the current Mets best seasons
Around here we all tend to crack a lot of jokes about how many of our players were good years ago, or had a good season once. I decided to compile data on all of the best seasons each player...

Looking At What We Have, Part 1: Position Players

Looking at what we do have, Part 2: Pitchers
Here is the long awaited part two to my two part series of ridiculously long posts cataloguing what the Mets actually do have after this offseason. This time I take a look at our pitching staff...

Mets sticking with Santos
23It looks like the Mets aren't looking to sign another catcher, figuring Thunder God Santos is close enough to anything out there to not be worth the expenditure. They plan to take the Benji money and spend it on pitchers, which is nice in that theoretical situation where they actually succeed.

13"Mets' GM Omar Minaya was never given a budget this offseason. The front office is making recommendations to COO Jeff Wilpon on a case-by-case basis without knowing if they're approaching a payroll limit. It's easy to see how that could become a problem."

Even Marquis is losing interest in us?
From MLBTR MLB.com's Bill Ladson spoke with Marquis, who seemed very interested in pitching for the Nationals. Marquis indicated that he likes serving as a mentor for younger pitchers and wants to...
What if Bay does sign elsewhere?
I'm curious to see what everyones opinion would be in this theoretical scenario. Lets say the team that has offered Bay a longer/larger contract is not the Mets bidding against themselves, but...

so much for Cammy
I really hoped we'd get cameron instead of Bay, it gets closer and closer to inevitable that we overpay him.

Dbacks, Yanks, Tigers trade
71big 3 way trade, D-backs are getting hosed on this deal. Looks like Jackson and Granderson aren't trade options for the Mets, not that i held out much hope for Granderson anyway.

This idea looks familar
19As much as I hate to link to a Jayson Stark page, I thought it was interesting that this idea he presents on a salary "basement" where teams have to spend a certain minimum amount is pretty much identical to a conversation we had here a while back. Wonder if he read it.
