Glavine's deja vu

[markvid]

ESPN says signs 1-year, $8 million deal.

EDIT: I guess I should put that it's with the Braves, huh?

Good Lord, I must be more tired than I thought.

 

[BYH]

One year too late.

 

[broadway joe]

I look forward to seeing the Mets beat his brains in.

 

[mike311gd]

I liked seeing Glavine in a Mets uniform, but he should retire with Atlanta. ...

Especially now.

 

[buckweaver]

One year too late.

Agreed, but boy am I pleased with this signing.

 

[spnited]

Can't wait to see Glavine come up big in September again, like he did last .... oh, never mind.

C'mon SP. You know how this works.

He'll allow two hits over six to eliminate the Mets on the final day of the 2008 season.

Would you rather someone else pitch on Sept. 30?

 

[spnited]

Hey, look, Mike, Tom admitted he was disappointred that he didn't pitch better but, you know, that happens sometimes,

Especially when you just don't give a crap.

He cares again.

Glavine wasn't the only guy who spit the bit for the Mets in September.

All things considered, he probably should not have left Atlanta for Flushing. It's going to be interesting to see if Minaya can improve the Mets' rotation and bullpen before spring training.

 

[spnited]

All things considered, Glavine is done. He won't win 10 games for Atlanta next year

When he first signed with the Mets, I was torn. There's something to be said about a player who spends all his time with one team. That's why I got disgusted at the Smoltz-to-Detroit talk last year or the year before. Sure I want that **** out of the division and the league, if possible. But I think I'd rather see him finish out with the Braves. You know, pitching poorly, of course.

I'm waiting for Maddux to sign on the dotted line so we can have a glimpse of the past on a regular basis.

What's Steve Avery up to these days?

I don't know. But I've got Kent Mercker on speed dial, and I'm about to wake his ass up.

He went 61-56 in five seasons with the Mets. Should have had about 75 wins with the Mets -- he left with the lead 13 times from 2002-05 before that nasty Benitez/Looper bullpen blew the game.
He made 164 starts, no fewer than 32 per year, far more than anyone else on the team.

I think Mets fans have to be fairly pleased with his tenure, all things considered.

I wasn't being critical of Glavine's run in Flushing. I think he did a nice job in his four years with the Mets.

All things considered, he and John Schurlholtz should have figured out a way to come to a contract agreement in late 2002. Glavine is a guy that you associate with the Braves, no matter how long he was with the Mets. It's much the same as Joe Montana when he was with the Chiefs. It just didn't look right.

 

[spnited]

I have no problem with most of Glavine's tenure in New York, Buck.
His performance is his final three starts this past September was pathetic.
His 7-run first in the final game of the season followed by a shrug of the shoulders was amateurish.

They need Alejandro Pena, Paul Assenmacher and Mark Wohlers to finish for him.
