Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted November 11, 2018 Posted November 11, 2018 Wednesday is the day...
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted November 11, 2018 Posted November 11, 2018 NY Times today had a note how about [u:1nigh7jb]if you only considered those games where Jake was tagged with a Loss or a No Decision[/u:1nigh7jb] (IOW, subtract out the games where he got a 'W') he would still have led the league in ERA, and by not a small margin [2.09 vs Nola at 2.37 or Scherzer at 2.53]

bmfc1 Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Put me down for a Cover Derby vote for this one year from now:
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 You'll get your chance a lot sooner than that! This cover is scheduled to be up for a vote a mere twelve days from now.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 The subtext on that for me is that Tom Seaver has completely checked out, at least as far as paying attention to baseball, or at least the Mets.

Maybe whoever reached out should've phrased it as "do you think deGrom is as good as you were?"
ashie62 Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Dicomo's take on todays events.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 I think he's going to win it. But we'll know for sure in a little over an hour!

Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) Seaver has pretty much said as much. At most he reads box scores saying that it returns him to following the game in his old age the same way he first followed it as a kid.Y'know, he's old, has been ill, is a continent away, and has a business to run. No sin in not being a fan boy and pretending that he needs to have an opinion on everything in today's game. Edited November 14, 2018 by Guest
batmagadanleadoff Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Landslide!! 29 1st place votes for deGrom.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 I thought he'd win going away, but I wasn't expecting it to be THAT lopsided.

batmagadanleadoff Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) All three homegrown Met CYA winners (Seaver, Gooden and now deGrom) also won the ROY award.Also, every right handed Met pitcher that won the ROY award would also go on to win the CYA award.

ashie62 Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 #48 announced at 6:48. Dicomo gave it away
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 This is great news. Mets Cy Young winners are almost as rare as NL pennants. (Cy leads 6 to 5.)I'm sure Jacob is thrilled, and I bet his agent is too. Oh... wait...
