  1. The Mets have been doing this kind of stuff for years. I imagine other teams do as well, but I don't pay attention to other teams. It's ridiculous. I'd rather see a 28-man roster with more limits on "up-downs". Or even a 30-man roster.
  2. The ads can be pretty intrusive, but I suppose they're a necessary evil.
  3. I reached out to the new guy last week, but never got a response. I noticed that there used to be an "About Us" section that listed the names and even a couple of photos of the new team, but that's been taken down.
  4. The Mets seemingly had been openly coveting Robert for a year or two. I never quite understood it.
  5. I estimate that I've eaten over 15,000 Pop-Tarts.
  6. How convenient.
  7. And he's already practically in Cowtipper's Hall of Fame.
  8. I guess his seat was at least a little bit hotter than Mendy's. Don Mattingly is the interim manager.
  9. On October 3, 2024, Devin Williams was hittable when we needed him to be hittable. He can stop now.
  10. If we're lucky they won't need to use him.
  11. I see that Williams was credited with the win even though Brazoban was the Mets pitcher when the winning runs scored. I suppose the official scorer used the "brief and ineffective" rule to take the win from Brazoban, but Williams doesn't really seem much more deserving. I probably would have given the win to Peterson, but I'm not sure how much discretion the official scorer has. Does the win have to go to a pitcher adjacent in the box score to the guy who was brief and ineffective?
  12. I remember thinking the same thing more than 30 years ago when Vince Coleman kept pulling muscles every time he moved.
  13. Ugh. I was hoping to hear that it wasn't as bad as Soto's.
  14. Today we had SIGH OF RELIEF. Seven years ago today, it was CY OF RELIEF.
  15. From the write-up for Ryan Lambert: I think they will need that, especially if they manage to get themselves to a place where they're playing games that matter. Maybe it will be Lambert or Ross or both of them. I have my doubts that Devin Williams will hold the closer job through September.
  16. I was a plodder without any visibly obvious reason. Skinny kid with long legs, but I couldn't move them fast enough. I was always the slowest kid in gym class.
  17. I don't know. He looks like he's built for speed. Another way to post photos is to copy the graphic itself and paste it into the edit window. I've found that it works for me when using a PC but not on a smartphone.
  18. Lindor has probably been my favorite Met since around 2022. That hasn't changed. (Especially since he's practically the only remaining player I recognize.) Also, I found that I missed collecting tabloid covers, so I started doing it again. But don't jump to any conclusions! The Stockholm office has shut down and the TCD Department has been laid off. Maja, you'll be glad to know, is still pursuing her reality show career and will be featured on the next Sweden version of The Traitors.
  19. I'm thinking Rusty Staub.
  20. Maybe the Mets need to get a new calf guy.
