    Ruf in the SF lineup tonight, following Flores, Conforto and Davis. And he doubled home Conforto in his 1st AB.

    What the Duck? 2019 Met screwed out of bonus bucks Adeiny Hechavarria plants webbed feet on Long Island.

    Michael Lerner, who portrayed Arnold Rothstein in Eight Men Out (and acted in oodles.of movies besides), 81. I briefly worked with his niece. https://variety.com/2023/film/obituaries-people-news/michael-lerner-dead-barton-fink-elf-1235577894/https://variety.com/2023/film/obituaries-people-news/michael-lerner-dead-barton-fink-elf-1235577894/

    Heart of hearts, 4 is Swoboda, but not incapable of randomly evoking, say, Jose Moreno without warning. In the Home Opener intros, I saw the player in 19 waiting on the top step for his name to be called, and was instinctively surprised the name wasn't Tim Foli.

    Hobie died April 6, per the Mets.

    Our first pick, the catcher selected to block all them passed balls, 93. https://metsinsider.mlblogs.com/rest-in-peace-hobie-landrith-5e424d301ccfhttps://metsinsider.mlblogs.com/rest-in-peace-hobie-landrith-5e424d301ccf

    Time of game -- 3:01. Horrors!

    Conversely, good job by Canha charging down the line.

It is awful and ugly Side note, why does a hospital (1) need to pay millions of dollars a year to advertise and (2) could that money be used to, you know, treat sick people? This is awful all around. Was thinking about this last night, specifically how many NYP patients could get treatment on the house if the ad rights fee was applied as such. Then again, if we're all doing sponsored jumping jacks during the 7th inning stretch, our cardiovascular systems won't require medical care.

    I can't stop thinking it looks like blood soaking through a hastily-applied bandage. In 2005, MLB supported Hurricane Katrina recovery efforts with a Red Cross symbol on its batting helmets. Well-intentioned as it was, it gave me the sense that every hitter was injured in World War I. https://farm9.static.flickr.com/8073/8276945561_cd310f6a52_o.png>

    Let's enjoy some warmups from the 1963 Old-Timers Day, when the pre-Cohen Mets made sure it would be an annual event.

    Both the Mets and MFYs have played home games at the Polo Grounds, at Shea Stadium and at Citi Field. Now they both have a Hilltop Park connection. https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=134519https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=134519

    Narvaez likely but not officially IL-bound, per Martino.

    Right thumb inflammation, no structural damage, day-to-day for Baty.
