“People break down into two groups when the experience something lucky. Group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence. They see it as a sign, evidence, that there is someone up there, watching out for them. Group number two sees it as just pure luck. Just a happy turn of chance.” – Signs

Some of you out there may take it as a coincidence that the Mets beat the Dodgers Wednesday by getting a dominating pitching performance and scoring twelve runs. But I’m telling you it’s more than luck, more than coincidence. When your starting pitcher goes eight and a third and you get clutch two out hits, leading to twelve runs it’s a sign. A sign of what this team could be.

Tom Starita's April Mets Review PDF Print E-mail

“It’s easy to say, hey, you’re going to have games like this…But when there’s not a lot of effort and desire, that’s when you worry…I just think that today, we just didn’t show up.  I’m not saying that Pittsburgh can’t beat the New York Mets.  I’m just saying there’s no way we should have this lopsided of a score…There was no get-up-and-go, and that can’t happen.  It’s something that can’t continue to linger…I guess it’s good to be in April and have a winning record and doing well in our division, but this isn’t something you want to transcend into May and June…these other teams are going to get better and we’ve got play with the same urgency and come out ready to play every day.”

Billy Wagner – following Wednesday’s brutal performance against the Pirates

The window is closing.

What was once a wide open window filled with promise of success and prosperity has slowly started to creep down. It’s no longer wide open, just open. Thus, the outpouring of frustration heard at almost every Mets game. It’s something we are all aware of and are helpless to stop.

It has now been reported that Jorge Posada’s injury will not require major surgery, and he’ll likely get a chance to play again this season.

That being said, the Yankees may still need a strong presence from behind the plate until Posada is ready, and Jose Molina’s body can only hold up for 3-4 games per week.

The truly decent “in-house” options are scarce, so the Yankees may look to acquire a backup catcher via free agency or trade.

Jorge Posada is headed to the disabled list for the first time in his 14 year career, and the Yankees are facing what could be a very long season without him. Thankfully, Jose Molina is a very capable backup, but as shown in last week-his body can’t hold up for long periods of time.
