If this was a 60-game season, the Mets would have a magic number of 3. (Instead, it's 105, which is slightly more daunting.)

  6. Ron called that double by Stroman seconds before it happened!
  7. What happened with that "throw" by Pete???
  8. Gary is using the verb "muscled" a lot lately. Is this something new or am I just late to notice it?
  9. I was twenty years old when the trade was made, and I knew very well who Keith Hernandez was. I don't think I thought of him as a future Hall-of-Famer (if I did, I apparently would have been wrong) but I knew he was an All-Star, a Gold Glove, and a former MVP. He played in the same division as the Mets. Even now, when I pay much less attention than I did in 1983, I still know the names of the star players on the other teams in the NL East.

  11. This deal was truly a turning point in Mets history. I remember learning about it while listening to the game on the radio. Bob Murphy said, "The Mets have made a deal, and it is a blockbusterrrrrrr." I still find it hard to believe that the Cardinals made this trade. They traded Hernandez within their division and got so little in return. I almost think that Samantha Stephens must have wriggled her nose and mind-controlled Joe McDonald. These articles make it clear that Keith really didn't want to be a Met. (Much like Richie Hebner!) I've learned that sometimes when the worst thing happens, it can turn out to be the best thing. Keith probably knows that feeling. "I'm stunned and disappointed. I'm going home to check my contract to see if I can veto the deal." Apparently he couldn't. Good for him, and for us. http://leaptoad.com/mets/clippings/00023.jpg> http://leaptoad.com/mets/clippings/00022.jpg>
  12. The Mets should offer the Mariners Cameron Maybin.
  13. The likeness is... uncanny? It's almost as bad as that Lucille Ball statue.

  16. Reed and Griffiths. http://leaptoad.com/mets/roster.phphttp://leaptoad.com/mets/roster.php
  17. The Mets have had three Jeremies and a Jeromy. You can take you choice of them.

  19. About 130,000 people are watching. That doesn't seem like a lot.
