This game will go down in the history of western civilization as the game in which the Mets decided to give a day off to their regular second baseman so that he'd be fresh for the All-Star game, to be played two days later. In other words, the Mets, substantially under .500 as a team, did not field their best lineup so that one of the team's stars could participate in an exhibition game.

A bunch of wimps and scoundrels. If it was Collins who made the decision, then Collins should be fired. If it was the GM, then the GM should be fired. If it was the batboy, then the batboy should be fired. And if it was the second baseman, then the second baseman should be traded.

As a postscript, it might be remembered that the aforementioned second baseman, the Mets' only All-Star representative of 2014, is making $5,700,000 for the year.

As a post-postscript, it should be noted that the aforementioned second baseman, in his only All-Star game at-bat, struck out on four pitches with a runner in scoring position.

The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and we would let it remain.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments, and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.

Thank you!
