    Familiar lineup: Nimmo CF Marte RF Lindor SS Alonso 1B McNeil LF Guillorme 2B Escobar 3B Smith DH Mazeika C Carrasco will pitch but not bat because the National League no longer holds any regard for itself.
  2. G-Fafif
    Taijuan Walker appears circumspect regarding Pete Alonso's action. And, man, it's good to see Edwin Diaz smiling. Welcome to the big time, Khalil!
  3. G-Fafif
    Interesting delivery. Less than compelling results.

    Dom's homerless games streak reaches 103, alone in 45th place...but Mets win!

It feels as if they're being shoved down the throats of the longtime fan who actually cares about team identity in order to reach those potential dabblers who might be charmed by this alternative presentation. Apple+ and Peacock away on all the devices you like — leave me my GKR. Surely the ballparks have the bandwidth to allow home, away and bonus productions (a la TBS and ESPN weeknights).

The upper echelons of the list (per Baseball Reference's searchable Stathead) is littered mostly with Bud Harrelson types. Buddy has six streaks of more than 100 games without a homer. A couple of names you wouldn't instinctively expect to see with longer steaks than Dom's include John Stearns (whose 46 HRs as a Met matches Dom's total) and young Wayne Garrett (though he blasted a World Series homer in the midst of that 1969-1970 regular-season void). The point here: Dom really needs to go yard. I'd be curious to see this list. Backman? Treviño? John Valentin?

    Jays determine it's now or never, name bench coach John Schneider as interim manager. [media=youtube]0MMZXRrsZmM[/media]

    Reeling Blue Jays fire Charlie Montoyo.

    That was indeed an interesting listen. Not quite as Sign of the Apocalypse as I'd inferred from the bracing description you offered.

I just knew she was gonna say (even if she didn't want to go there) she grew up MFY.

    McNeil to the Dad list; Jankowski is healthy and ready to play ball
  13. G-Fafif
    Batting ninth and playing second for the Braves: Robinson Cano.

    A few reflections http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2022/07/11/new-york-retains-its-challenge/within.
  15. G-Fafif
    The Braves have traded for Robinson Cano, who's been getting his swing back with the El Paso Chihuahuas, the Padres' Triple-A affiliate.
  16. G-Fafif
    First-time All-Stars include Travis d'Arnaud and Andres Giménez. Legends, named at the Commissioner's discretion are Albert Pujols and Miguel Cabrera.

    Hello, cable company, can I have ESPN2 banned?
  18. G-Fafif
    The Mets have claimed lefty reliever Sam Clay off waivers from the Phillies, DFA'ing Jake Reed in the process.
  19. G-Fafif
    McCann to the IL, Mazeika recalled.

    A report from the scene of the rise of 17 http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2022/07/10/the-fire-inside/here.
  22. G-Fafif
    Not an active roster move, but recently DFA'd Chasen Shreve has been issued his unconditional release.
  23. G-Fafif
    Here's hoping whatever the Marlins couldn't do behind their bullpen in the tenth Saturday plagues their ace on Sunday. Or the Mets could just hit well and Taijuan Walker could pitch well. First pitch 1:40 on 11 Alive, as we used to say, though when it was 11 Alive, WTF would the Mets be doing there?
  24. G-Fafif
    Definite echo of 1986 vibe here today.
