Not to give Kase any more annumition, but Armando never challanged Seaver's 69, or was rivaled by Gooden's 85 as dominat seasons in a New York uniform the way Guidry's 78 did.

[Guest AG/DC]

What does that have to do with anything?

Better yet, instead of leading seemingly every conversation --- including those you start --- off on untenable tangents, maybe update those blogs you pitch in your sig lines. One is six weeks out of date, one eight months.

I know I'm kinda new here and all. But sometimes I read Steve's posts and I wonder if deep down he has kind of a soft spot for the MFYs. Just saying.

Second Met named Vargas, first named Claudio.

Although there was one Claudell and one Claude. (Quick trivia question: which Met was named Claude?)

What happens in Vargas, stays in Vargas

Steve is the Crane Pool's closet Yankee fan.

At least silverdsl embraced her Yankee fandom. It seems that after she got married she jilted all of us Mets fans. She was a nice addition to the forum and I miss her input. I never thought I would say that about a Yankee fan.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Silver briefly poked her nose in here just a week or two ago.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Sorry I missed her brief visit.

[Benjamin Grimm]

This is the one post she's made in the last eight months:

Meet Fernando Tatis, #832:



Meet Nick Evans, #833:

[soupcan]

He does sort of look like Magadan.

They both have that Willem Dafoe scary, toothy face thing happening.

I think that's 43 Mets on the year, with an outside chance for 50.

[G-Fafif]

Ruddy Lugo long tosses with Jerry Moses.
