    I'll try not to be surprised when I'm surprised.

    I really haven't been watching much. I saw the last few innings of Sunday's game, but that was the first time I had tuned in in quite a while. They're a team of strangers who are going nowhere. Not very compelling. Yes, I'd like to get better acquainted with Ewing and Benge and McLean, but I have trouble watching a game when I don't care much about the outcome. And it's become quite clear now that this is a lost season.

    Citizen Kane did an effect with something called an "optical printer" (I don't remember the details of what that was) but it allowed for the camera to pan upwards through a ceiling. For example, a scene may have been taking place on the first floor, but then the camera started rising, passing through the floor/ceiling to a scene on the second floor. Maybe that's what you're thinking about?

    Don Zimmer played in the very first Mets game.

    If you were responding to my post, what I meant was 2027 value, not 2028 through 2030 value.

    I agree. I would only trade Weaver for someone who might have a greater impact for the Mets in 2027 than Weaver would. But that probably won't be the kind of player who would be traded for Weaver, unless perhaps it's a AAA star who's not quite ready but should be soon. That doesn't appear to be a likely scenario.

    There's going to be a lot of speculation. I'm pasting some highlights from an article that's currently on SNY's site at https://sny.tv/articles/mets-trade-deadline-intel-7-6-26

    They win the damn thing!

    First game I've watched in weeks. What a miserable team this is.
  13. Benjamin Grimm
    Well, you have to operate as if there will be a 2027. And I think there will be, although it may very well be very abbreviated.

    With more experience, he may be able to get it up to four!

    Write to them and see if they're willing to give it up.

    I'm a fan of Lindor as well. He's one of my favorite Mets of this decade. And the raccoon argument was between Lindor and McNeil.

    I think the failure in the second half of 2025 can be written off as bad luck. If Ryan Helsley hadn't failed so miserably, the Mets would have made the playoffs. But what happened this past offseason looked like a disaster from the beginning. It finally looked a bit better when the Mets got Bichette and Peralta, but we've seen that it wasn't enough. Getting Polanco and Robert didn't impress anyone, and the starting rotation was always looking like a lot of maybes. They need to rethink their rule about avoiding longer-term contracts. If they limit to three years, they won't get the best players and even when they do get a prime player, like Bichette, he'll be likely to be a short-termer. Stearns needs to put more value on stability. It's not a great idea to have to rebuild the roster every year as much as he has.

    I'm hoping they trade Peralta to Milwaukee for Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams.

    Keep the guys who you think can help in 2027 (if there is a 2027, of course). I don't see why you wouldn't. If you trade Weaver now you'll just have to try to replace him in the offseason.
  21. Benjamin Grimm
    I wasn't aware that the rule was removed. Is there no longer a minimum amount of time required?
  22. Benjamin Grimm
    Yeah, I'm not buying Beltran as a deity either. I wonder how many people are?

    Tell them your name is David Ross.
  24. Benjamin Grimm
    Former Cubs manager (2020 through 2023) David Ross has expressed an interest in the Mets job, according to SNY.

    July 27 would give him time to make one or two appearances before the trade deadline.
