Do you think us Mets fans just exist for your amusement?

Why did I even bother asking this?

Nice! Can I interest you in a brand new Matt Kemp replica jersey? It's only $99!

Maybe you'd like to go authentic for only $225!

Second surgery for #Mets' Santana is a "strong possibility," GM Alderson says. If that is the case, he likely is out for season.

#Mets GM Alderson says Santana has probable re-tear of anterior capsule in left shoulder.

Sorry, Franks.

(I'm not sorry)

 

[road house]

Sad news about Johan Santana, "With re-tear of shoulder capsule", He might be done its all over twitter.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Scored a Braun throwback replica from a Lids that was formerly an MLB store in my mall. Best part is it had dirt marks from another jersey's lettering rubbing up on it, so I scored it for only $80. I'll have my girlfriend's ma clean it up for me in time for Real Pic Opening Day.

edit: Santana is cursed. Or is the Mets where good pitchers go to die? (Glavine, Pedro)

 

[Lambtron]

Sounds like Johan needs another shoulder surgery. I feel bad for the guy. Bill Smith made a terrible trade, but I'm glad the Twins aren't paying him $31 million this year. Selfishly, I was hoping he'd have a decent season and come home next year.

 

[Malo]

That non-trade for Johan keeps looking better. Sucks for the mets though.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

lol Mets.

Poor Frankman.

Mets tradition of overpaying has beens continues.

Poor Johan

 

[Zep]

lol Johan.

Poor Frankman.

 

[Parch]

That's probably the end for Santana. 2nd shoulder surgery is bad news and low odds for a comeback.

 

[ConradCervantes]

What a damn shame. I loved watching him back with the Twins.

 

[RBH]

Sorry, Franks.

You'll be eating those words when Dr. Andrews gives Venters a clean bill of health, bub!

And he is thirty four years old.

 

[harSon]

I'm not feeling too good about the Pirates early season. With both Liriano and Karstens out with injury, we're going to have Jonathan Sanchez in the starting rotation :|

 

[CygnusXS]

He's only like our 3rd best relief pitcher anyways. I love the guy, but he's expendable.

 

[Kuroyume]

Johan is such a bust. Guess the deal sucked for everyone.

 

[Syrinx]

I should be sad and disappointed and depressed about this...but I'm really not. Frankly I wasn't counting on Santana too much to begin with. Injuries have been so consistent through his time with the Mets that I was more or less expecting something to happen at some point.

 

[The Frankman]

*sigh*

So much for flipping him for a prospect in July.

Who would have traded for him? At this point next year he will be lucky if he is playing AAA ball.

 

[Heart Attack]

damn. Santana was such a joy to watch when he was with the twins. fuck the mets and their shit luck.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Supposedly no one has ever returned from having this type of operation twice. Here's to a fast recovery Johan! A friend of Johan said he knew the no-hitter might mess up his arm but it was totally worth it.

I thought he was going to be one of the next 300 game winners back in the day

Needs to get that german doctor that fixed up peypey

 

[HarryDemeanor]

I'm so sorry Mets fans.

 

[lazybones18]

Mets can't ever catch a break. At least they got their 1st no-hitter out of him

 

[rinse82]

Any Toronto guys seen jerseys of the new guys anywhere other than Rogers Centre?

I'd prefer to get my Reyes jersey before the zoo on Tuesday night.

I'm sure you can get one in the Sears Jays Shop in the Eaton Centre.

JBJ made it over Sweeny. Excited to see how the kid fares against big leaguers.

Already have a Bruce and Votto jersey. Was about to pull the trigger on a Phillips or Chapman jersey then I said fuck it, lets do my last name!

Of course they can. Along with the Cain meme pics!

 

[BigJonsson]

100% can, I saw a Reyes one a couple weeks ago.............but last year they didn't have my hat size in stock at the start of the season so go quickly to make sure they have what you want size wise

 

[Heart Attack]

Already have a Bruce and Votto jersey. Was about to pull the trigger on a Phillips or Chapman jersey then I said fuck it, lets do my last name!

how much?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Alex Rodriguez ($29 million) is making more money in 2013 than the entire Houston Astros ($25 million). And $5 million of that $25 million is going to Wandy Rodriguez, who now plays for the Pirates.

Cliff Lee ($25 million) is also making as much as the entire Astros.

Johan Santana, who is now out for the entire 2013 season, and Vernon Wells ($24.6 million) are almost making as much as the Astros. C.C. Sabathia is making $24.3 million.

 

[KoruptData]

how much?

$99 and 2 to 4 weeks. From the Reds official site.

Next one I get has to be authentic. I'd like an authentic road jersey.
