I don’t know why they signed this guy. He’s like another back up catcher?! He sucks! Might as well sign Jessica Alba to a three year deal. What happened to Lo Duca? PAUL.. LO.. DUCA (clap clap …clap clap clap!)

    haha… that’s funny. torre alba.

    i agree, yorvit sucks. his road numbers were .212/.292./.326 last year. that’s right, he SLUGGED .326 last year! might as well bat him 9th behind the pitcher. oh, and his throwing % sucks. but wait, he calls a good game. who freakin’ cares!! castro is much better. what a waste of money.

    why won’t the mets spend real money on someone? the offseason headline will be yorvit… meanwhile the yanks are bringing in five more all-stars. i’m sick of being second fiddle!
