He chickened out of Darling's scheme to dress all Mets starters in the teens. (Aguilera switched 38 to 15 and stayed). Edgy MD Apr 29 2016 06:47 PM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations Good catch on Sid. I was hoping that the 10 would indicated the year of that undated photo. Is '88 correct? I was thinking Doc was in Ponys (which were standard issue for the Mets in the early 80s, but they had a downward pointing Chevron. OE: Brooks?

The number thing was spring training of 87 themetfairy Apr 29 2016 07:28 PM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations Syndergaard, deGrom and Harvey. August 2015 Rockin' Doc Apr 30 2016 02:58 AM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations Edited 1 time(s), most recently on May 01 2016 02:34 AM That how to wear a baseball uniform. I'm old school, I just don't understand players wearing wearing their pants down past their ankles. Viva the stirrup socks! Mets Willets Point Apr 30 2016 03:14 AM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations Is holding the baseballs right up to the camera lense just a pitcher group photo cliche or are they making a deliberate callback to the earlier photos? Zvon Apr 30 2016 03:19 AM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations I think it's just a cliche pose. Edgy MD May 31 2016 08:59 PM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations Seaver, Koosman, Ryan, Gentry, McAndrew, 1969 Current bid at $4.99. Zvon May 31 2016 09:55 PM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations I wanted to put these side by side and see how close I got. Darling came out the best. Gooden, I think I gave him too much of a smirk but I like how he came out. I may have opened his eyes a little bit. Ojeda. That looks like Ojeda now, in 2016! Look at those beady eyes.... I scrunched Sid's head a bit. Lil' bit. Bit the brows are PERFECT! Edgy MD May 31 2016 10:51 PM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations That's s some pretty terrific mixed media. You're pretty great at this stuff. It would undermine the intend lefty/righty balance, but you could have probably extracted Aggie from this one: Zvon Jun 03 2016 04:57 AM Re: Photo Phriday: Pitching Rotations That's s some pretty terrific mixed media. You're pretty great at this stuff. It would undermine the intend lefty/righty balance, but you could have probably extracted Aggie from this one: Thank you sir. I don't do much drawing by hand these days and I should do more. All up in graphics and composition. I've become a scavenger artist. Removing Aggie could be done in 3 smudges but there's no way I'm going to get involved in an image that includes those style jerseys. Lets gather up all pictures of those and the block letter NEW YORK ones and burn them. Hey! Maybe that's what the team needs. They've been talking about it but they don't know what to burn! METS: BURN THOSE UNIFORMS! ______________________________________________ I'm afraid there is something wrong with Doc.
