Fred, I always thought that you had a semblance of a brain. Even now I think that you are preparing us fans for the big “dump”. This is your way of justifying what you are about to do which is to decimate this team. They say “when a fish stinks it stinks from the head”!

“Lousy team?” “Shi__y team?” And who put that team together Fred? And now you’d rather tear the team apart rather than sell it to cover your losses.

The Mets fell apart, crumbled completely, after Delgato went down. They built a shrine in lieu of Shea, it was all down hill from there. If someone had told you in 2006 it was all down hill from there they would have Wright ON The Bernie Madoff Money.

The Met’s cannot do anything right…this is a perfect example….

Oh by the way Fred your beloved Dodgers are going to up for sale soon, sell the Mets and go buy them and don’t let the door hit you in the a.. on the way out!

Hey Fred you might be a nice man ……but you certainly aren’t a good owner. You need to sell this team because no-one is coming here to play for you. Your living proof that you only need money to make money and you don’t need to have brains to make money. What a idiot you think that going to make them play better or ask when can I get away from this fiasco. Nelson Doubleday please come back and take over this team!!!

100% Correct!

Shut up Fred! You hired the Omar who made all the stupid decisions and hired these players. Sell the team to someone who likes the Mets and wants to make it a first class team. You can go try and buy your beloved Dodgers and let our team (the fans)have descent ownership.

I wish I had the money to give someone to take Reyes. They can have him and his grounders and his pop up foul balls. For the money Bey is getting, he should be hitting every single time he gets up there, Start taking money away from him for every time he gets up there and does nothing and watch how fast the $66 million dollar man wakes up. Wright cannot keep carrying this team. The kid is hurt and is hurt more than likely because they keep playing him. Beltran looks good since he has rehabbed, but if it’s time to go, then see ya. We have some good young talent and Wilpon needs to realize that. The Ponzi mess is his mess and he seems to be taking his problems out on a team that is already having a lot of their own problems right now. Someone needs to show a hell of a lot of interest and buy them before they get taken the way the Diodger’s did by MLB. I have been a MET fan since the 60′s and enough is enough. Give us what we deserve. A good strong, healthy solid team that can be in contention. WAKE UP WILPON.

`he is a stupid man, you dont say that about your own team, true or not, he should be talking up these guys especially if hes trying to trade them. The Mets are a mess. They need to re-sign Reyes , that stupid ballpark was built for him! Trade Wright and Beltran, and if someone can will take bay even better.The Wilpons are clueless.

even if he’s right, this sounds like him trying to shift attention away from his financial troubles and instead focusing on the players.

Life long Met fan and I could not agree more with him. He is %100 right. Wright is not a super star. If played anywhere else you would not know his name, Most over rated player on the team.

He’s 100% right about Wright as he will never be great until he learns how to relax & stop pressing so much. That’s why he is such a streaky hitter when heathy but now his body is starting to break down a bit as he ages. Might be time to let him go along with Reyes if they can get any building block value in return.

YOU WONDER WHY THE METS ARE IN THE SHAPE THEY ARE. BUT HE IS RIGHT ON A FEW THINGS HE SAID. REYES DOESN’T DESERVE HUGE MONEY. HE ALWAYS INJURED AND ON THE DL FOR 6-7 WEEKS AT A TIME. WRIGHT IS A GOOD PLAYER NOT A SUPERSTAR. BELTRAN FOR THE MONEY HE IS MAKING HAS BEEN A HUGE MISTAKE.. AFTER THEY TRADE REYES AND BELTRAN THE STANDS OF CITIFIELD WILL BE EMPTY FOR ALL OF THIS YEAR AND FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS…..

OK, He need to sell the team or he will end up hated more than Walter O’Malley. Especially if he trades Reyes.

Just like the Wizard of Oz said “Pay no attention to the man behind the screen”.

HOW WOULD YOU PORTRAY A POOR TEAM THAT YOU KNOW DARN WELL YOU WILL NOT OWN IN ANOTHER YEAR OR HOPEFULLY LESS? IT SOUNDS LIKE A BUNCH OF SOUR GRAPES TO ME.GOOD RIDDANCE!

I wouldn’t have enough confidence to put Wilpon in charge of walking my dog let alone run a professional sports organization.

Carl Crawford’s money is an analogy for the blood money Wilpon siphoned off the Madoff scheme.

Just relying on common sense I use the term “the truth hurts”

This guy is the f’ing schmuck, he’s nuts. And he better give Reyes the money, he’s a player that deserves it. The problem is he had schmucks running the team and he’s one of them. I hope he f’ing sells. Btw watch him now back track on his comments.

What ever happened to constructive criticism? If the Mets organize stop focusing on having long ball hitters and concentrate on basic baseball and just putting the ball in play, they would be unbeatable. Mr. Wilpon, if you’re going to speak negatively about one player, then there is something negative to say about all of the players INCLUDING Ike Davis.

I find it hard to believe that someone that pours hundreds of millions of dollars into a business every year feels that strongly against a team. He has some say in what players are signed on that team if he didn’t want Beltran he should have said so. Sounds to me that Jeffrey Toobin is just throwing wood on the fire.

God if only someone was in a position to do something. Oh wait YOU WERE! As the owner you have final say. Why did YOU sign those players you no what’s lousy? Your ownership style

This is more Steinbrenner’s style, which I never liked. It’s bad enough he even thinks like that, much less says it, especially to be published. I have been sticking up for him during every mess he’s been involved with. Now, I’m rethinking if I’ll ever renew my season tix as long as he owns the team. Maybe all those naysayers are right, he should sell the team. I think it’s madness to even consider getting rid of Reyes or Wright. They are part of a nucleus that can be a really good team. They’ll never get good enough prospects to take their places. Maybe it’s not all that bad–after all, Derek Jeter seems to have shrugged off the bad-mouthing the Yankess have done.
