  6. =smg58 post_id=52681 time=1608743633 user_id=62]The combination of Cohen, the money we are not paying Cano, and not breaking the bank to get a catcher means this should not be an either/or when talking about LeMahieu and Springer.
  7. Well... Jared Porter said that the wants a lot of redundancy. Assuming the Mets sign LeMahieu and don't trade for Lindor or Arenado, they would have LeMehieu, Rosario, Gimenez, McNeil, and Davis covering three positions. That is a lot of depth. And maybe they're pivoting to LeMahieu over Springer (if in fact they are) because, if there's no DH, they'll want a spot in the outfield for Smith?
  8. The Mets have contacted LeMahieu's agent, according to Heyman. He's played 104 big-league games at third base. I wonder if they're thinking about playing him there?

  13. At least he doesn't play water polo!
  14. Too bad it's a broken link, due to the change in the domain name. Here's the updated link: http://archives.thecranepool.net/1900/f1_t1946.shtmlhttp://archives.thecranepool.net/1900/f1_t1946.shtml
  15. Frank Thomas did come to visit us a number of years ago.
  16. OH, WHAT A NIGHT is also the last surviving cover that relates the outcome of a baseball game.
  17. I don't recall Hamilton with short hair at all. Looking at the faces on this page: http://leaptoad.com/mets/metannual.php?ThisYear=2020http://leaptoad.com/mets/metannual.php?ThisYear=2020 Could it be Ali Sanchez?

  19. Well, I kept thinking his name was Walt Wallet.
  20. You can tell they were starved for baseball news. The 53rd anniversary of Tom Seaver's debut makes the back page???

  22. Better to go for Lindor, I think. If you sign Springer you can include Rosario and Nimmo in a deal for Lindor and not weaken yourself at any positions.
  23. I guess they didn't want to be "Cleveland Baseball Team" for a year. They should have spent the last however many months, since the Redskins announcement, laying the groundwork for this instead of starting now. I read that just a couple of months ago, some squatter trademarked "Cleveland Spiders". The MLB team should have grabbed that years ago. They've already missed out on https://clevelandspiders.com/https://clevelandspiders.com/
  24. They'll continue to be the Indians for the 2021 season, and then they'll be the Something Elses beginning in 2022.
