Thats barely harder than a routine grounder. 29 starting shortstops make that play. then theres jeter.

Slate points out the flaws in the map. But before you Yankees fans get carried away, there are a few things the rest of us would like you to keep in mind about this map. First of all, it measures Facebook likes for your team�s page�nothing more, nothing less. Unless or until the Census Bureau decides to add a baseball-fandom question, this is probably the best map we�re going to get, but that doesn�t make it perfect. At the risk of stating the obvious, the map over-represents the sort of fan who goes around liking things on Facebook (cough, San Francisco Giants). It also favors teams with more active social-media presences.... One other thing: Just because you�re the most-loved team in a given county doesn�t mean you aren�t also the most-hated. If Facebook had a dislike button, the Yankees would probably find that they�re America�s team in more ways than one. I've always wanted a dislike button.

Reyes is on the DL again.he played 93 games last year. this contract could still easily turn into the disaster that many predicted, so i dont know why anyone wants to criticize sandy for not signing it.

Seriously. People are acting like we are 10 games out in August already. its APRIL, enjoy meaningful Mets baseball!

It could easily be partially reflective of each team's "pushing" their facebook page though.

John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Well how about the W-L record then. .421 at home; .500 on the road over the last 3 years. That's crazy. Its strange, but I'd think entirely within the realm of reasonable outcomes for a team with roughly ".460 talent", espcially when you consider ballpark factors... maybe the Mets roster is poorly constructed for the dimensions of their own building? if so, numbers relative to opponents numbers (and using road numbers as a control against different talent levels) should show it, but the writer of that article doesnt share any.

Adam Rubin needs to shut up, 4 years isnt enough time to turn around a trainwreck of a minor league system... anyone he drafted is only first hitting the upper levels of the minors now! I havent seen any other GMs go out and acquire Zach Wheeler, Noah Syndergaard and Travis d'Arnaud for a 36 year old pitcher who just had his career year and a 3-month Beltran rental. Alderson is doing a great job. Fire Rubin. and fuck the traditional media and their sense of entitlement. if "Mom's Basement Press Association" is actually writing quality stories then they are just as deserving of a seat at the press table as he is.
-
Citing the Mets' home/road OPS is virtually meaningless unless you can also tell us the change in their opponents' home/road OPS, otherwise the entire difference could be ballpark factors that also hurt the other team.

a side-show to the season-long-national-jeter-blowjob: the yankees brought out Pettite, Rivera, and Posada to say goodbye today, as the other members of the alleged "core 4" (Andrew Marchland calls them that on ESPN.com today and i've heard it used before) but my questions would be; 1. "core" of what? and more importantly 2. "why 4, or why these 4?" I'd think you'd have to answer the first question by saying the "core of the recent yankees dynasty", but while its easy to put a start-date on that group (the post-strike era) its hard to put an end date, because the 1996 championship team looks almost nothing like the 2009 team. its easiest to say the 1996-2001/3 team was a dynasty and the 2009 team was an isolated winner (previous WS appearence 6 years earlier, none since) and if so, my question becomes: why Posada? Bernie Williams (and possibly Paul O'Neil) was a bigger contributor to Yankee championships and to the dynasty than Posada was.

Heard MLB.TV was having issues and the out of town scoreboard at Citi stopped updating so I couldn't even mock the Yankees. Got a good hour of Suzyn and John though on my ride home. I'm good for the year. WFAN no longer exists on my dial

you know why? because i'm a man, a father, a husband, and I AM A MAN. but what is a man? is a man just a meatbag with a hairy penis? is that all that makes me a man? a y-chromosome and 18 years under my belt? no. a man is a MAN. He's a man! he's 40! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZU5AnxwIAg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZU5AnxwIAg

The lineup of the future, here today! I'm excited to see some Flores action and i like the Satin-platoon idea. Platooning was popular in the pre-steroid era and looks to be making something of a comeback.

I think we jinxed the Braves' no-hitter my mentioning it, well done guys!!
