-Jerry Manuel on the Mets injuries
It’s too late at night for me to start looking up statistics and quoting OBP and whatnot. But from where I stand, the Mets just swapped Ryan Church, a player whom I liked, for Jeff Francoeur, a player I had grown to hate simply because he was a Brave.
(Also, is it just me or have the Mets and Braves barely played this season?)
Simply, the Mets got a five-year-younger Church. They are, in essence the same player. Streaky, with some pop, and can drive in runs. And both have cannons for arms.
Was it even worth the phone calls?
Francoeur (I hate that name already), also known as Frenchy, may benefit from a change of scenery. At least, I hope so.
Frenchy is a decent player, but nothing special. Both teams were down on the players they sent away, so I guess it's all about meaningless. Still, this just doesn't sit right with me.
I will miss Church. I really will. He was a solid player that ran into (literally) some hard times and seemed to suffer from an over-crowded outfield on the Mets. I don’t wish him well, though, because he’s the enemy again.
And I was this close to buying a Church shirt this week.
Guess I should get a Frenchy shirt.

According to Kevin Burkhardt on Twitter, the Mets have traded Ryan Church.
Church is heading to the Atlanta Braves for Jeff Francoeur.
I'm at a concert, so I'll keep it brief, but I don't understand this at all. Is the trade really worth it? More later.

Tomorrow, July 11, I will be on Mets Weekly on SNY.
I traveled into the city about a month ago to film a segment about my blog, Twitter, Game Chats and everything I do about the blog. We filmed in the Mets Clubhouse Store on 42nd and 5th.
It was awesome to have this chance and I’m somewhat excited (if you couldn’t tell).
So check in on SNY at 12:30 p.m. tomorrow (which also happens to be my 21st birthday!) to watch the segment.
