Someone like Jose

OK, so Jose Reyes' departure snapped me out of my (unintended) blogging hiatus. I found it in myself to read more posts on Reyes from some other blogs over the past two days. I always appreciate good writing, even when it's tough to stomach. Maybe even more in those cases ...

Well-written (psycho)analysis from Ted Berg

A true fan's view from Paul Hadsall (who I owe a belated thank you for acknowledging me in his Thanksgiving post). He also looks at what Marlins bloggers are saying.

Wonderful sarcasm from Mets Police

A pragmatic look from Brad Bortone

 Vinny Cartiglia has fans' reactions on Twitter over at Metsblog.

And a collection from the folks at Amazin' Avenue ...

Matthew Callan knows it hurts

Eric Simon helps you decide who to blame

Chris McShane channels The Simpsons

And, finally, Amazin' Avenue's Applesauce presents a roundup of even more coverage. I've linked to the whole post because it gave me the idea for the (intentionally cheesy) photo presentation below.
