John Franco

[Bland]

when was the last time he had a 123 inning?

Probably June 22 against Cincinatti, at least judging by his game log. The last time he even lasted a full inning before today was June 27 against the Yankees, when he walked 1 and struck out the side.

he is the poster child for the mets. they should erect a statue of him in the parking lot as he represents exactly what the mets are all about, mediocrity.

See, here's the deal - The Mets right now have the best ERA in the majors. You look at their bullpen, everyone's ERA is between about 2.00 and 3.50...except Franco, who's embarassing himself at 5.50. Give him his car and a gold watch, a nice coaching position or something, hell retire his number...just stop putting him on the mound when he's obviously too old to be effective!

and yet they are below .500 and close to the cellar in their division.
sounds pretty mediocre to me. so much for your stats.
