    Had they "confirmed their interested in Choo" that would have been tampering, and they would have been tsk-tsked by the commissioner.

    I can't help but think that November 15 is a bit too early to judge the success or failure of the Mets offseason.

    Gary Carter?

    Jerry Koosman?

    I recognize Ike and Turner. (I hope that at least one of the girls is named "Tina.") Not sure who the dude in the back is.

    Frank Viola.

    Sounds like the kind of guy who will be parked in Las Vegas until and unless he's needed to fill a vacancy in the rotation.

    The other difference is that Granderson is a free agent, and Ethier would require giving up players in a trade.

    Should we just create a Howard Megdal subforum?

    Ron Darling's nephew... what?

    The one on the Promenade was the only one I was familiar with. I think I saw it there in April 2013, but I can't be sure.

    Well, Keith Hernandez has a burger stand in the food court above the rotunda. I heard Gary mention it on a broadcast and Keith seemed surprised to recall that he had lent his name to that place.

    And then if the Mets announce that they've signed a middle-inning reliever to a one-year contract, people will say, "Is THAT all they're gonna do?" Despite my knowing better, I sometimes scroll down to read the stupid comments posted at the bottom of Internet news articles. And the "fans" are already all over Sandy for not having done anything yet.

    The Daily News had something this morning (can't find it online) saying that according to hittrackeronline, all but nine of Granderson's last 91 homers would have gone out of Citi Field. And of course, if Granderson was a Met, only half of his games would have been played at Citi, so if the numbers are accurate, Citi Field would only have cost him about 4 per cent of his home runs.

    Of course, the apple has been around for about 30 years. If that's the last time the Mets did anything innovative, they're in quite a slump.

    Jon Heyman wrote: ORLANDO, Fla. -- There appears to be decent trade interest in Ike Davis despite his awful 2013 season. The Astros, Orioles, Rays, Brewers and Rockies all have checked in as the Mets field offers. Milwaukee may prefer re-signing its own guy Corey Hart, however. The Mets appear set to go with Lucas Duda after Davis' second straight season hurt by a slow start. Davis recovered in 2012 to hit 30 home runs, and though he hit much better in the second half last season, he still finished with a .205 batting average, only nine home runs and 33 RBI. Duda did well after switching from the outfield last season. He also has a decent track record for on-base percentage. The Mets also have Josh Satin, who did a nice job in 2013.

    I guess I'm Scout 2.

    Good for Marlon; hopefully not good for Phillies. This seems like an early (in the offseason) signing, doesn't it?

    I don't know what to think about Guardians of the Galaxy. I mainly enjoy these movies because of my childhood attachment to the characters. These Guardians are all strangers to me.
