seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Edgy says "they're calling up Scott Copeland."I say "WTH is Scott Copeland?"Turns out he actually exists, was scuffling along in AA, and now he's a bona fide New York Met. Supposedly.https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/mets-scott-copeland-to-receive-promotion/Seven things you didn't know about this new imaginary Met:* Gave up eleven runs in 15.1 innings in 2015 with Toronto.* 21st round draft pick by Baltimore in 2010 out of Southern Miss.* Is on The Twitters: * Is not related to Stewart Copeland, as far as I know.* 4-0, 3.81 in five starts in AA and AAA this season. That's the same number of W's as deGrom, which means he's probably just as good.* Has a career minor league whip of 1.696. (Yeah, that'll translate well to the majors.)* Actually started a game against the Mets: http://leaptoad.com/mets/gamedetail.php?gameno=8594
smg58 Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I'm not sure if he is up in addition to or in place of Peterson. Peterson at least gave some reason for optimism.

G-Fafif Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Johan Santana is only 39 and has never officially retired.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Jon Matlack is 68, but very well rested.
Lefty Specialist Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Maybe we can lure Seaver away from tending grapes.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I'm just going to keep bringing up the tee idea until I hear something better.
