  1. Sandy and Terry misheard. Thought MLB told them it was OK to play with a 14-man roster.
  2. Mets are 77-83, with two remaining. Those who are still not wrong: bmfc: 78-84 G-Fafif 78-84 MFS: 78-84 Lefty Specialist: 77-85 batmags 77-85 Too optimistic: Edgy: 102-59 (+1 rainout on what turned out to be a sunny day) JCL: 93-69 (typed 93-59, assuming this was what he meant) seawolf: 92-70 Ceetar: 89-73 Zvon: 89-73 Ashie 88-74 Kong: 88-74 marathon: 85-77 Ben Grimm 83-79 Gwreck: 82-80 themetfairy: 82-80 TransMonk: 81-81 smg: 81-81 LWFS: 80-82 Not optimistic enough: Nymr: 75-87 HahnSolo: 73-89
  3. It's a triply dead heat! NYM 77-83 MIA 77-83 ATL 77-83 It couldn't be closer! Or less competitively redeeming.
  4. I was in the room for his announcement. His largely unchoreographed goodbye "and adios" was very moving. The passing out of quotes later in the evening from former teammates and such later in the evening in the press box -- prepared by an outside PR firm -- detracted from the emotion only a little.
  5. Niese 2.0 Granderson 1.0 Goeddel 0.5 Recker 0.5

  7. Barely memorable, yet yielded memories.
  8. Ce52FkhYMfY The Astros! The Mets! 1962! 2012! Expansion! Realignment! History? Lots! Lately? None! Tonight? More! This is how we left the two fraternal twins of the National League when last they crossed paths. Ike Davis was a big hero and Jose Altuve was just a little shaver. Jon Niese, the least struttingest pitcher of all time, versus Brad Peacock, no doubt played by that villain from all the '80s rich snob jocks who get their comeuppance movies. Above: Astros starter Brad Peacock, presumably.
  9. Can't wait for the early edition of the Danbur News-Times to land on subscribers' lawns this morning.
  10. Collin McHugh was a face without a name until he took a walk in the rain to Houston. 4Rt1VicF5-0
  11. Wheeler 1.5 Matsuzaka 1.0 Germen 0.5
  12. Granderson 2.5 Flores 2.0 Murphy 1.5 den Dekker 1.0 Duda 1.0 Carlyle 0.5 Familia 0.5 Torres 0.5 Mejia 0.5
  13. Call me sentimental, but I always get verklempt on Elimination Day. It's so beautiful, even if the celebrations aren't as raucous as they used to be.
  14. Mets are 76-81, with five remaining. Those who are still not wrong: TransMonk: 81-81 smg: 81-81 LWFS: 80-82 bmfc: 78-84 G-Fafif 78-84 MFS: 78-84 Lefty Specialist: 77-85 batmags 77-85 Too optimistic: Edgy: 102-59 (+1 rainout on what turned out to be a sunny day) JCL: 93-69 (typed 93-59, assuming this was what he meant) seawolf: 92-70 Ceetar: 89-73 Zvon: 89-73 Ashie 88-74 Kong: 88-74 marathon: 85-77 Ben Grimm 83-79 Gwreck: 82-80 themetfairy: 82-80 Not optimistic enough: Nymr: 75-87 HahnSolo: 73-89
  15. Anybody project Ike in the postseason? 'Cause that's where he'll be. We got the better season at first base. He got the better 2014 outcome. Win-winnish.
  16. Still tied for second, albeit with Marlins creeping within a half-game of both Mets and Braves...and you know how unpleasant creeping Marlins can be. Historical guide to the eleven prior Met second-place finishes (and a couple of near-misses) here.
  17. Box. Flores 1.5 den Dekker 1.0 Nieuwenhuis 1.0 Torres 1.0 d'Arnaud 0.5 Murphy 0.5 Matsuzaka 0.5
  18. Thinking a Metsian-script take on "Ours" or something of that nature (as in Our City) might help you work around name issues.

  22. An exclusive inside look at the Least Interesting Man In The World.
  23. Former pitcher/current writer Dirk Hayhurst not a fan of boys-will-be-boys nonsense.
  24. Mets are 76-80, with six remaining. Predictions that are still (recordwise, anyway) still valid: Gwreck: 82-80 themetfairy: 82-80 TransMonk: 81-81 smg: 81-81 LWFS: 80-82 bmfc: 78-84 G-Fafif 78-84 MFS: 78-84 Lefty Specialist: 77-85 batmags 77-85 Too optimistic: Edgy: 102-59 (+1 rainout on what turned out to be a sunny day) JCL: 93-69 (typed 93-59, assuming this was what he meant) seawolf: 92-70 Ceetar; 89-73 Zvon: 89-73 Ashie 88-74 Kong: 88-74 marathon: 85-77 Ben Grimm 83-79 Not optimistic enough: Nymr: 75-87 HahnSolo: 73-89
  25. Bee-yoo-tee-ful, as the Ol' Perfesser himself would marvel. The bottom two, indeed. One for night games, one for day games.
