here's hoping!



MLB has hard-clamped down on the secondary market stuff. Not just MLB even. But you frequently don't get a barcode/ticket until 24 hours before.

Countdown to Opening Day suspended.

By my calculations, the Mets have won 54 games that qualify as Openers in the Season, Home or Split Season sense. Read about each of them http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2020/03/20/every-mets-opening-win-ranked/here.



By everybody's calculations, Pete Alonso of the Mets hit 53 home runs in 2019. Relive each of them as they happened through the magic of words http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2020/03/25/for-petes-sake/here.



Looking forward to the Mets' 55th Opening-type win and Alonso's 54th career homer whenever they can be arranged.

All this Coronavirus is really delaying Alonso's climb up the Mets all-time homerun list.

There is a great void in the world today.

The thought crossed my mind today that maybe Covid-19 is god's punishment for Nike swooshes on the uniforms.

Life imitates art. Or Marvel movies.

I watched a little bit of the SNY "MLB The Show 2020" version of Opening Day today. It just kinda made me sad that it wasn't the real thing.

Did anyone play this one out electronically?

[batmagadanleadoff]

Not me. But at midnight, you can re-live Opening Day 1994 and watch Tuffy Rhodes take Doc deep, and deep and.deep.



It's all happening on the MLB network.

[Edgy MD]

If you play this season out electronically do you do it from the point that play stopped in the spring, or from Day One?



In other words, It's Syndergaard digitally injured also?

Yes - they did it "live" on MLB The Show on Twitter. That's what I ham-handedly referred to earlier. It was 2-2 in the 6th when I turned it off; don't know how it ended.
