THE HAIR APPARENT!
New York Daily News, September 4, 2016
Robert Gsellman shows that the Mets have yet another long-haired starting pitcher that they can count on.

I voted 11th Heaven.

So many members of the pitching staff have long hair that the hair angle has become a crutch when they have nothing else clever to say.

the picture is better but the 11th heaven highlight is just so dumb, plus the whole 'theme' is gut-punched by the "Matz may be done" addendum.

really looking forward to voting against either of these.

[Centerfield]

I like both covers, but ended up voting for their opponents in the prior round. Will have to think this one through.

The Cabrera HR is one of the best moments of the season. Maybe even the best, arguably. But that picture does the moment no justice. And the cover and headline are just ok.

In a way it's hurt by Zvon's contribution:



When you look at that, you can't help but think what might have been. Everyone on their feet. Cabrera celebrating. Everyone looking the other way. One random Met knows it's gone and is already hopping the fence. That picture with any headline wins this contest.

*Can and Admin fix the size? Didn't know it would display that big!

[Guest d'Kong76]

Went with Heaven to add to the landslide.

[Centerfield]

After much deliberation, I went with Hair. But it looks like it won't make much difference.
