    This is a real chance to make some hay (whatever that means) against the Nationals.

    I wonder if Gary Cohen knows how to pronounce "Jhoulys".

    I like the Granderson/Wright cover. Its simplicity stands out from other covers from its era, although it would have been better without that orange outline of the skyline. But I voted for 1966, because I enjoy the whimsy of the Willard Mullin cover. (The two men holding the poles seem rather strange, though. I wish I could see them more clearly. I may have to look for a larger image of the cover.)

    Another day. Another winner. Another loser. This time, 1974 defeats 2006, 13 to 3. ADVANCING TO ROUND TWO: ELIMINATED:

    I blame Fman99 for starting this IGT. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    I'm less optimistic about this game.

    Here's something that's nothing short of fascinating that I just discovered. You may want to be sitting down for this. From 1962 through 1974, with the exception of 1971, "Yearbook" was actually two words: "Year Book". From 1975 on, it's always been a single compound word: "Yearbook". (Although the 1993 cover puts a Mets logo between "YEAR" and "BOOK" so it's hard to say for sure if they're presenting it as one word or two.) See? I told you! Admit it. Your world has just totally been rocked.

    I love the jigsaw-puzzle feel of the 1972 cover. It gets my vote. And for those of you who may not have been checking the Yearbook Cover Derby master thread, an updated look at the full bracket has been posted here.

    Our 16th poll has closed, and 1967 defeats 2013 by a count of 15 to 2. ADVANCING TO ROUND TWO: ELIMINATED: Now that we have officially determined one half of our first-round winners, it's time to post an updated bracket:

    My guess is that the fifth bench player will give Mickey more flexibility to pinch-hit for whichever weak-hitting catcher comes to the plate in a key situation.

    Why are they holding off on putting Wright on the 60-day? There's no way he'll be active by mid-June.

    I think we've seen this kind of thing before, where X-rays are negative at first but later reveal a fracture when the initial swelling goes down.
  17. Benjamin Grimm
    Oh. I was thinking you got a used sweaty shirt.

    What... ... does it smell like?

    Here's what Laura Albanese of Newsday says: The AL East will be an absolute dogfight this year, but one that the Rays probably won’t be a part of. Ramos is in the final year of his two-year contract, and it seems likely that the Rays would be willing to consider a trade that wouldn’t force the Mets to give up a ton. The eight-year veteran and former All-Star hit .260 last year with 11 home runs and 35 RBIs.

    David Wright is still on the 10-day disabled list. That gives the Mets an easy way to make room on the 40 for Lobaton, if that's what they decide to do.
  22. Benjamin Grimm
    So much for the "negative x-rays".

    I just switched my vote from 1982 to 1997. The more I see that 1982 cover, the more I'm reminded of my initial revulsion 36 years ago upon seeing those two portraits, especially the one of George Foster.

    The New York Post wrote: A source told The Post’s Mike Puma that the Mets have spoken to the Marlins about catcher J.T. Realmuto. It would take a significant haul from the Mets to land Realmuto from the rebuilding Marlins. The 27-year-old has yet to play this season due to a back contusion, but is expected to return to Miami’s lineup next week.
  25. Benjamin Grimm
    Yes, that's a factor. He's expected to return soon, though.
