RIP RUSSELL MARTIN AND HIS PIRATES UNIFORM. 

I feel bad for you, Uncle Gramps.  It's like when we let go of Paul Lo Duca.  I like having a fiery little backstop to get the team going and pick up big hits. 

So, how does a 2015 New York vs. Pittsburgh NLCS sound to you? 

The Mets?  You're cute

The Phillies offered A.J. Burnett $12.75 million, He's taking $4.5 million less to play with the Pirates.
Buuuuuuurn Philly.

We are happy to have him back.  8.5 for 200+ good innings is worth it.

2) Russell Martin to Toronto for 5/82.

They can have him at that price.

Being a long suffering Pirate fan I have no room to talk, but Hokey, are you seriously going to tell us  you expect the Mets to even sniff a wild card spot, much less their division?

I expect the Mets to win the NL East with anywhere between 91-95 victories, yes. 

Harvey - deGrom - Niese - Wheeler - Syndergaard/Colon/Montero/Gee (whoever impresses the most)

Familia - Parnell - Mejia - Edgin - Black at the forefront in the 'pen. 

It's about pitching, Uncle Gramps.

ROTFLMMFAO

Don't bust the lil guy's bubble, Smash.

lol@redsoxfans.  Ask the Dodgers about padding payroll to guarantee world series appearances.
