  1. Right under "Mets Resources". It says "Twins: Notes and Rumors"
  2. Okay, so that doesn't work either. I was going to see if Brock could convert BB tags to HTML tags in all of the migrated posts, but that wouldn't make it any better.
  3. Trying something... <TABLE> <TR><TD>A</td><TD>B</TD></TR> <TR><TD>C</TD><TD>D</TD></TR> </TABLE>
  4. I'm also more concerned about Manaea than about Peterson. If two of them fizzle there's still Myers, Scott, and Tong, but of course it's much better if they don't have to start using up their depth too quickly. It seems like the most important thing in recent years is to not run out of starting pitchers.
  5. I suspect that delaying Benge's free agency eligibility is a consideration, although the Mets wouldn't say that publicly.
  6. I went to the oldest topic in that subforum, the one about Brandon Sproat, and I am able to reply.
  7. People weren't participating. There's little reason to think that will be any different now.
  8. You can look at the star or the dot to the left of the topic title. If it's bright orange, there are unread posts. And if it's dim, you're caught up. Same is true of the individual forums. If the icon next to the subforum title is dim, then there are no unread threads in that subform.
  9. 1. Yes, that's an appropriate place. 2. That's where we brag about our personal accomplishments and/or disclose our illnesses. If we decide to keep it, it should be restricted to Old-Timers. 3. I noticed that the Tabloid Cover Derby archives isn't included. This is one of those that will be empty until and unless the archive files are restored.
  10. That looks more like the Hall of Anyone Who Was Ever Even a Little Bit Good.
  11. I agree that there's an awful lot of white. Maybe putting a light shaded background on the posts and the forum listings would help, as would a more distinctive separator between posts. And I also agree that the pale grey navigational text would be better if darker and bolder.
  12. If you convert the archive files into actual threads, most of those forums will no longer be empty.
  13. Brock intends to clear out all of the Twins stuff. Hopefully that will happen soon. The forum is pretty much unusable in its current state.
  14. All of the Twins content is confusing for now. I'm looking forward to seeing what this place looks like in a day or two after the dust has settled.
  15. Nobody seems to be saying this out loud, but isn't it to the Mets' advantage to hold him back for a while to delay his free agency?
  16. Two reasons for that, I think. 1. The cap on the plaque thing made this seem inevitable. 2. Having a number retired is an honor that has become more and more devalued.
  17. This will give the Mets a run of five consecutive retired numbers.
  18. Could the Cub be... Dick Tidrow?
  19. How about Ronald Acuna?
  20. JT Realmuto? If he's on the list he's probably closer to the bottom than the top, but he's been an NL East rival for a very long time.
  21. Could the Cub be... Ray Burris?
  22. I would think that Kingman had more than a 1.7 as a Met, though.
  23. Is Gary Sheffield the Brewer?
  24. I thought of Randy Jones too, but I think, perhaps incorrectly, that his number with the Mets would be better than -0.2. I'm really stumped over the Pirate. Could it possibly be Richie Hebner?
