1. Steinbrenner buys the Mets.
2. Jose Lima is named the team's ace pitcher.
3. Trade Wright and Reyes for ARod.
4. Delgado demands a trade; Mo Vaughn out of retirement to replace him.

Let me do this for the Yankees (all things y'all are hoping will happen):
1. Derek Jeter gets caught with a suitcase of steroids/cocaine/gay porn mags.
2. A-Rod agrees to a trade and ends up being the key player for his team when they knock the Yankees out of the 2007 post-season.
3. The return of Bubba Crosby.
4. Randy Johnson doesn't recover from off-season surgery, Carl Pavano injures himself (again) this time by breathing wrong, Mussina isn't re-signed and Wang gets deported. Staff ace is Jaret Wright.
5. Mariano Rivera goes down with an injury. The Yankees have no replacement. They're screwed. (There's a good chance this could happen someday soon.)

Wright and Reyes reveal that they are lovers and go into seclusion
in The Dominican and never return to the states.

The Mets trade Lastings Milledge for their regular second baseman of the future Neifi Perez. (It hurt to type that)
Glavine goes back to Atlanta and leads them to a pennant.
David Wright found with a dresser drawer full of boy scouts' underwear.(not his)

Most horrifying predictions possible? I wrote these last week but forgot to post them:

Some run-of-the-mill starter shuts us down all night.
We load the bases with one out and the game tied but can't score.
A light-hitting catcher homers against us in the ninth.
We get the first two guys on in the bottom of that inning yet with our season on the line, we strike out looking, line out, walk and strike out looking.
We lose the pennant despite having been clearly the best team in the course of the year.

There wasn't a deadline for these, was there?

Greg & Jason get sick of the Mets and each other, and FAFIF goes dormant as a result.

The pitcher who walked in the winning run in the 1999 NLCS becomes the dominant ace that leads his team to a World Series championship in 2006.

Edgy's anti-ownership agenda comes true and the league collapses, leaving us without baseball.

I'm not any such thing. But I reailize it's more fun to be snarky than coming up with a list of all those 17-year-olds pulling $5-million bonus checks.
