Jason Bay

Jason Bay sucks. Plain and simple. He was never a good hitter. He played in Boston where right handed hitters have the luxury of a short left field even though the wall is very tall (hence his high output of doubles) and unless you hit the ball to dead center field, its a hitters park.

As for Pittsburg, another hitters park and when you are 30 games out of first every year and expected to be so, there is no pressure. Its easy to hit when no one cares LOL.

NY has high expectations, a lot of visibility and a ton of media. He cant handle the pressure, the Mets are retarded for signing him even at all. I wouldnt have that bumb on my team for free. And here they are, paying almost 19 Million this year for him to hit under .200 again with no power.

A ton of those doubles and homers he hit in boston are lazy fly balls in Citi Field. He is a garbage hitter and I wish the Mets would just cut ties with the loser. HE SUCKS!!!!!!

Reply-to:LOL Used to be? a good hitter? Please let your friend know, respectfully, that elite athletes paid THIS MUCH MONEY to STAY CONSISTENT at this level are not just one -time good hitters... He signed one of the most lucrative deals in baseball history with the METS as a less than average player and that was the Mets past managements biggest blunder ever. He is making as much, actually more money than future Hall of Famers playing in the game and who have played the game--the best of the best! Makes no sense...Plus, his work ethic is sub-par. He finds any excuse to sit the bench or walk to first base. Watch him at bat...he breathes deep, nervous...doesnt even swing the bat with passion or have any fire in his eyes. Nice guy? Maybe...But there are plenty of nice guys on and off the field not collecting the cushy salary and working hard for their money...Not hurting the efforts of their team day in and out. Jason Bay--Rally killer. Season 2012 is here and its Groundhog Bay ...again! 

Mets past management biggest blunder ever. So true.

Reply-to:i know jason bay sucks now, but my friend was arguing today that he USED to be a good hitter with the pirates and red sox, what does anyone think of that?

I'm back with the disgraceful stats on this LOSER...

0 for 35 on the road --A new Mets hitless streak he just set for a record. Historic Groundhog Bay. BTW, he just choked again with RISP, ANOTHER grounder to short, Mets are behind Cubs. This has been the routine all year. 

Games have been lost --Imagine where we would be without him?! Our scrappy club has pulled some amazing wins together with our rookie players. It's called heart and raw talent.

Jeter gave him the HIV

When is Jason Bay going to get into the batter's box and swing at pitches in the strike zone, instead of standing at the shores of Willets Point flailing at something over Greenpoint!

IT'S GROUNDHOG BAY! Every frickin' gameday it's the same thing over and over...KKKKK's, ground balls into double plays, fly ball outs, foul ball outs, CHOKE with RISP...Oh, and did you just puke the other night when the ball hit him on the head when he flat-out MISSED a routine catch in left? It's called "I lost my game and passion --(whatever passion he had)because I get paid so much I'm good...no matter what... " BTW, the foul ball he tried to dive for and "caught" last night ("oooh I might get my pants dirty but I have to do something to keep my job") against the Marlins was actually a TRAPPED ball--NO ONE, not the announcers, after multiple replays, no one caught this! I saw it , plain and clear and Bay knew it. Did anyone else pick that one up? I am so sick of this tool that I just needed to get all of this off my chest. Feel better now.  

I was optimistic he would be a good player for us coming into last year. And then he got off to that horrendous start and thought "Ah, he's just off to a bad start he'll turn it around..."

He didn't. Right there neck and neck with Oli Perez for worst signing/resigning since I've been a Mets fans. They should do the same thing to him they did to Oli. DUMP HIM IMMEDIATLY. He can't play simple as that. He's got his money he's content and doesn't give a damn anymore. Get rid of him.

Wow...Just keeps getting worse and worse...Just when you think you've seen it all, he strikes out again AND again or hits into a double play in a key, clutch situation. CHOKE. He is literally afraid to come up to bat. He has the worst numbers out of ANY hitter in the national league right now...This includes rookies...who are making $500K compared to his 19 million (this season)I am feeling so sick...He is instrumental in helping to  LOSE GAMES FOR MY METS!!

Reply-to:Turning out to be one of the worst Met signings in recent years. Just pure garbage from someone who was expected to do far more.

Jason Bay to excitement is to soda crackers with water is to fine cuisine.

Booya!!!!!!!!!!!

Reply-to:Well, here he is, still collecting his jackpot salary and SUCKING the life out of his team. Omars biggest mistake and the curse he left the team. They have no money now to go out and help the pitching /offense situation. My METS are better than this, get him out of here !!! He is NO MET--he has NO HEART. Its obvious when he comes up to bat and swings like a fairy. 

can't play under the bright lights of New York

- need to trade him ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is why Jason Bay sucks and is a complete waste of money: in 110 games as a Met he's hit 7 home runs and driven in only 52 runs.  He's making the big bucks to PRODUCE, not show up.  Nevermind that he's only hitting .254 with a .735 OPS as a Met - I would be able to live with those numbers if he actually drove in runs, but that's the problem: he doesn't.  Oh, and his GO/AO ratio of 0.95 is a complete disgrace for a guy who's supposed to hit home runs. 

For all of you "Come on, he's not that bad" people out there, he's hitting .252 with RISP as a Metropolitan, and is literally frightened of coming to the plate in a close game after the 7th inning.  He's got his money, he doesn't care.  Get him off my team right now.

who ever said mean things about jason bay shutup hes good when he got back from his injury they started winning so what now so shutup lets go bay and lets go mets

OMG...Ralph Kiner said it best last weekend when he described Bay's lack of performance as "devastating" to the Mets organization. Most every time he is up in a clutch situation, he CHOKES. He may get a hit now and then, but he is paid BIG to be a power hitter and to drive in runs.

Mets made a huge mistake signing him...I hope they can unload this tool. He is a loser, he SUCKS.

Heldout for a huge contact and the Mets took him.. he is now another anchor with the Mets... Like Pedro.  What a bad decison!

SUCKS!!

I'm very disappointed.  Hope you regret your decision.  Good luck to you in NY. 

There's no need to be vulger.  I'm sure we all understand Jason's need to try free agency.  Reality is that baseball is a business and for Jason it is a job.  I just hope and pray that Jason realizes how much he is appreciated in Boston and decides to stay.
