A Mets dissapointment

Are the New York Mets  front office going to get get off the couch and do something this winter.  The Mets had a below .500 record last season, they fired their manager and general manager after the season and haven't done much positive since.  This off season the Mets hired a general who was last working for major league baseball, he hasen't been at the helm of a team since he left the San Diego Padres in March of 2009.  They also hired a manager, who no ones ever heard of, he last led the Anaheim angels to a 4th place finish in 1999. They've spent all this money on their front office but have announced pubically that they have to many bad contracts on this team and can spend no more than $5 million on the field.  The Mets had no pitching last year and Johan Santana their ace is injured and might be out until the all star break.  Right now they have about two guys they can count on as far as starters go, in R.A Dickey and Pelfrey.  They need a bullpen that can shut teams down especially if they don't have the starters which they don't, as of now.  They need help on the infield to since Wright and Reyes are the only guys their they can count on and Reyes has been injured the last couple years.  A front office that no one knows about and only $5 million to spend on a sub .500 team, no one was watching last year.  Is this going to give met fans hope.  Season ticket holders won't renew,  and people won't go to the ball park, they'll be playing in front of no one. Spend that $5 Million wisely.
