  3. Gary now talking about seeing Blondie (RIP Clem Burke) at Max's Kansas City and how they wouldn't go on until 2:30 AM…
  4. Something's wrong with the centerfield camera too, it's like there's a pink filter on it for every shot on SNY.

  6. Guess I should pay more attention! That's all of the “most” then. I'll update when the game starts.
  7. Astrodome correct. Just missing #7 from most. Citizens Bank no. Least: Mets played 9 games at Mile High. It just missed the “least” list.
  8. Correct answers below. This will probably close around the time of first pitch tonight. Jarry Park is not on either list. Hiram Birthorn misses the “fewest” list because the Mets played multiple series there when it was the part-time home of the Expos. Mets never played at the Kingdome. Most 1. Shea Stadium - 3,606 (3,577/29) 2. Citi Field - 1,265 (1,249/16) 3. Wrigley Field - 393 (391/2) 4. Dodger Stadium - 339 (328/11) 5. Busch Stadium II (1996-2005) - 297 6. Veterans Stadium - 273 7. 8.

  9. =stevejrogers post_id=189429 time=1744398654 user_id=57] If postseason counts, 2 games for Baltimore's Memorial Stadium
  10. Candlestick is #7. Forbes Field is not in the top or bottom 10.
  11. Riverfront and Fulton County also appear on neither list.
  12. Edited above to add more correct answers. Progressive Field, Tropicana Field, Rogers Center, Rate Field appear on neither list.
  13. Yes, that's #9
  14. Most 1. Shea Stadium - 3,606 (3,577/29) 2. Citi Field - 1,265 (1,249/16) 3. Wrigley Field - 393 (391/2) 4. Dodger Stadium - 339 (328/11) 5. Busch Stadium II (1996-2005) - 297 6.

  15. You're disqualified if you saw the recent tweet about this. Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento will be the 63rd stadium in which the Mets will have played a major league game. No, this isn't a quiz to name them all. But, can you please name 8 stadiums in which the Mets have played the most MLB games (no need to pick the top 2) and the 10 stadiums in which they've played the fewest? Most 1. Shea Stadium 2. Citi Field 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Fewest 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
  16. It happened again on Monday when I was there. It was again sad to see. If was again scripted with one of the runners falling down at a key moment. Nobody sitting near me seemed to care.
  17. Tim Healy of Newdsay reported it a day or two ago.
  18. Tyrone Taylor is an athletic guy and I bet he could play almost any position in the field for a couple of innings if need be. He is already reportedly the emergency catcher. The risk of not carrying multiple backup infielders is pretty well diminished by the clown car rules for extra innings — there's not much risk that someone would be playing out of position for a very long time. This roster construction with only one backup infielder has been pretty consistent since…September of last year when McNeil broke his wrist? The only resulting “crunch” I can recall is the extra inning game against the Nationals in which Vientos was the ghost runner placed on second to start the 10th and was pinch-run for, meaning that Torrens would have to play infield if the Mets didn't win the game that half inning (which they did).
  19. That is a collection of second-, third- and fourth- rate franchises. I pay them no mind except when they face the Mets. During their interactions with the Mets, their fanbases have collectively proven themselves to be irrationally paranoid and/angry, woefully misguided, racist, and/or non-existent. They are generally unworthy of attention unless necessary to maintain personal safety.
  20. I read this entire thread and still have no idea why anyone would care who this person is. The only reason to care seems to be that it's kind of sad to see parents trying to use their kids to become famous.
  21. Is our optimal defensive alignment with Acuna at second, or at third?
  22. Soto is…not that fast. Not Vientos-slow, but not that fast.
  23. They just announced in the park that tomorrow's start time has been moved up to 4:10 PM.
  24. In a curious scheduling quirk, the Mets play on Monday for each of the first 9 weeks of the season. The first. Monday they're off isn't until June.
  25. Old friend Wilmer Flores walked it off for the Giants, who are out to a 8-1 start. Fun fact: with 30 more games for the Giants, Wilmer's time in SF will have exceeded his time in NY.
