  1. Gary just said that Betances is one of 138 players who have been Mets and Yankees. I have 139: http://leaptoad.com/mets/oppteams.php?ThisTeam=19&tabno=Bhttp://leaptoad.com/mets/oppteams.php?ThisTeam=19&tabno=B
  2. If Betances gets a quick inning, let him pitch the [CROSSOUT]ninth [/CROSSOUT]seventh.

  5. Pete is the tying run at the plate. I wish it was 2019 Pete.
  6. I just remembered that this is a seven-inning game. Less time to catch up, but it's looking like there's plenty of time to fall further behind.
  7. I guess you could perhaps argue that when (if) they eventually make up this game, the original lineups have to be in effect. I don't think that's the case though. Doesn't the home plate umpire have to signal the game to begin? Does anyone actually say, "Play ball!"?
  8. I had forgotten that I'm responsible for today's IGT!
  9. 8. Matt Ramsey has an ugly beard. If he does something about it, he may get another inning or two.
  10. It's so much nicer to have guys like him on our team than someone like Aubrey Huff.

  12. I don't know who's starting today, or for any of the following five games, but I hope none of them are started by anyone named Steven Matz.
  13. http://leaptoad.com/mets/covers/yearbooks/1981.jpg> I think it was A Boy Named Seo who, unfamiliar with Basement Bertha, gave a very funny take on this cover.
  14. Diaz coming in with the bases loaded. I don't feel optimistic.

  16. From what I've heard, MLB considers it a road game and Elias says it's a home game. For now, on the UMDB, I'm going with the MLB option. But I'm torn.

  18. This thread title reminds me of an episode of the Flintstones, where Wilma pissed Betty off by repeatedly saying, "After what Barney did..." (Three honorary Schaefer points to whoever call tell us what it was that Barney did, because I can't remember.)
  19. Gary was talking about how this could be a "make or break" week for the Mets. They've only played two of nine games so far, but for now it looks more break than make.
  20. It's a rare thing for me to start an IGT. Might as well see if this will startle the Mets into scoring some runs.
