The Mets finally made a big off-season move and signed Jason Bay to a four-year contract for a shit-load of money (does it really matter how much?). But the question is: will the Mets still blow next year? Or, will they be awesome until September and then blow?Bay had 36 homers, which is a lot in the post-steroid era, and he had 119 RBI. This translates to roughly 20 and 90 in Citi Field.
They've also signed 18-game winner Kelvim Escobar who will probably get injured sometime around July.
Could they pull off another late-season collapse that makes Met fans want to throw their televisions out the window?
Only time will tell. Just about 60 days until pitchers and catchers report to spring training.
