    Lagares has longest uninterrupted tenure. Familia had that semester abroad.

    Because I track this stuff, I've been disconsolate that Lagares has been stuck on 8 HRs at Citi Field for what felt like forever. In that way a person who keeps lists will get, I really, really wanted Juan to reach 10 at home for his career before he moved on. Now he has. Reached 10, I mean.

    NIDO!

    Lagares first home park home run since 9/7/2017.

    Cubs lose. We're 2 GB them and the Brewers; tied with Philly; 1/2 GA ARI.

    First undisputed. Cyclones shared the 2001 title, having led their championship series prior to cancellation following September 11. This is the way to do it.

    Howie spanked MLB hard over not permitting the caps in game.

    You know whose rookie season never gets mentioned despite starting 35 games in a rotation that accomplished something people are still amazed by 50 years later? Gary Gentry. 13 wins in his first year when that was a stat people took seriously, yet not a single ROY vote or slot on Topps All-Rookie team. I guess the ring had to suffice.

    =batmagadanleadoff post_id=21546 time=1568226700 user_id=68] Wow is that guy annoying. (Not Willie -- the other guy). Plus, Breuer talks to Wlllie as if Willie were senile.

    Hats will be worn in BP, per half-measure usual.

    Jim kind of smushed together the trade and the following season, and Willie's nickname isn't “Say Hey, Let's Fact Check”.
  17. G-Fafif
    Saying it out loud might queer the deal, but I no longer instinctively cringe in Nieselike fashion at the thought of Matz. I've got Stroman for that.

    The must wins will present themselves in retrospect. For now, there is no yesterday, there is no tomorrow. One one-game season at a time.

    Charlie Silvera, 94, 1950s MFY backup catcher who rarely played yet repeatedly collected World Series shares.

    Everybody can relax. Chris Mazza's been recalled.

    Gary Cohen keeps endorsing the idea of an entirely new record book to accommodate Alonso's records. Glad you enjoyed the article. I just added a link to a pretty good SI story from earlier this year on the history of the save: https://www.si.com/mlb/2019/06/04/mariano-rivera-yankees-closers-saveshttps://www.si.com/mlb/2019/06/04/mariano-rivera-yankees-closers-saves Those firemen we revered in our youth apparently weren't sold on the stat from the start.

    Last night, Pete Alonso clinched a title that hadn't been in doubt for months, winning the 2019 championship in the perennial Mets Savers vs. Sluggers battle. Thirty-nine times in 58 seasons, the Mets' leading slugger has had more home runs than the Mets' leading closer has had saves, whereas 18 times, the advantage has gone to the saver. One time it was a tie. Why yes, you can read http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2019/09/10/home-runs-will-save-us/more about it here.
