  1. Lettering on the back and the numbers seem different. Harder edges to them. Almost a comic book effect in terms of the tone. But effing great, mind you.
  2. METS ALL-TIME HIT LEADERS Through Games of 4/7/2012 1. Ed Kranepool 1,418 2. Jose Reyes 1,300 3. DAVID WRIGHT 1,253
  3. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: I think I've got it, maybe. Mulholland? Oh, you got it all right. A Giant, a Phillie (twice), a Mariner, a Brave, a Dodger and at the end of his career, a Diamondback -- which wasn't even necessary because he was a Phoenix Firebird in Triple-A. He was also practically everything else.
  4. Neither of the above.
  5. I didn't know it was a quiz (it was something that just occurred to me today as I pondered the travels of Ty Wigginton), but the answer I divined with the (complete) help of baseball-reference never played for Tacoma.
  6. Edgy DC wrote: Assenmacher. Which sounds very much like a German insult. But no, not Paul Assenmacher.
  7. [youtube:1b1qgv8b]p1FxiYOHq9U[/youtube:1b1qgv8b] Steve Miller went from Phoenix, Arizona, all the way to Tacoma, Philadelphia, Atlanta, L.A. as well as Northern California (where the girls are warm). Like Steve, one major leaguer played in all those ports of call -- substituting nearby Seattle for Tacoma. And that player is...?
  8. If the Dodgers are still in the league, I'll take them.
  9. Santana 3.0 Wright 1.5 Byrdak 1.0 Rauch 1.0 Francisco 1.0 Murphy 1.0 Torres 0.5 Thole 0.5

  11. Even the pre-emptive alibis sound convincing today. The ballpark's redesign is going to affect the Mets in plenty of obvious ways, but also in some you might not expect. "For me, like with throws from the shortstop and stuff, there used to be a huge wall there and it used to be black," Ike Davis said. "Now it's going to be not there and I'm not sure how I'm going to see the ball from the fielders when they throw it." Further complicating matters is that the Mets played a game in Tampa Wednesday, the back end of a home-and-home with the Yankees. That killed any chance of a workout day to help get comfortable at Citi Field. "There isn't a big grace period," Jason Bay said, "so we'll be learning on the fly. But it's the only option we have. It's not that we're choosing to do it this way. Hopefully, it will be enough."
  12. First Braves Opening Day lineup since 1996 to be Larryless.
  13. All Mets to wear No. 8 during BP today.
  14. "Go ahead, Doc!" "Do it..." Ymixm6PtVBA (And swallow that gum, Brave pitching coach.)
  15. To meet the M-E-T-S METS! Of New York TOWN!
  16. Simon says: David's coming for the Krane, the Straw and the (sigh) Fish.
  17. Benjamin Grimm wrote: Phil Hartman? I thought he was dead at the present time. You're thinking of the other Bob Miller.
  18. New pizza vendor at Citi Field: Two Boots, featuring Phil Hartman. Don't know if flashing a baseball card will get you a free drink, per Amazin' Tuesday offer of yore. Probably not.
  19. And when you're the second-most recognizable 64 in team history...
  20. Of the three September boys, I can clearly picture Schwinden and Satin but other than knowing he was there and that I remember him coming into a game, Stinson made no impression on me. And isn't he glad he didn't waste his time attempting to do so?
  21. Mets had to let him go to make room for Josh Edgin. And Josh Lewin. And Josh Thole. And Josh Satin. Yet nobody criticizes Alderson for convening Jos Mets.
  22. "Grandpa, you saw Brian Stokes when he was winning the most Schaefer reliever of the month awards all those years?" "That's right, Billy." "Can you tell me something about him?" "Uh..."
  23. Claimed by Milwaukee, per Rubin. I'm still not convinced he wasn't always Josh Satin.
