The Mets haven't homered in 66 innings.

[AKA Coastal]

That's crazy if you think about it. Any idea what the record is?

Jeff Francoeur will bat fifth in his Mets debut on Saturday night against the Reds.
With his No. 7 taken by Jose Reyes, Francoeur will wear No. 12. The Mets hope that Francoeur can add some much-needed power to a lineup that hasn't homered in 66 innings.

Great just what the Mets need,another low batting average with warning track power.Way to go Minaya.How many more years of this until us fans can start using the Brooklyn Dodgers Dem Bums saying?

i agree, thats also a reason the mets never were strong in the draft, drafting the big name guys

 

[hofmichael]

Minaya makes the trades.I blame him.Great job he has done.The only trade that looked half way decent was the Putz deal.We all have seen how thats worked.I also miss Bannister.Ruben who?

i'd love to have brian bannister right now. And what do you consider the Johan deal?? traded 4 prospects, who none have really panned out to be anything unbelievable, for the best pitcher in basebalL??? i'd call that good too. But, i want Minaya out also

What are we talking, 7 or 8 games? That hardly seems "crazy" to me. Sad, yes. Crazy? Not really..

Has any other team come close to not homering in 66 innings this year? Remember the streak is still on going into tonight.

How the heck should I know?

I'm not saying that an 8 game homerless streak is not discouraging,,or evn terrible, but crazy? Not really considering the team that is playing. Bad? Yes. Crazy, not really. 20+ games would be crazy to me, but then again, I guess we are just splitting hairs.

No, not really. I do not consider the "home run" the end all be all to baseball. There is so much more I take from the game. But yes, watching the mets this year has been painful.
