    Buster Olney reports that the Mets have interest in Freddy. I'd totally get behind this if I were them, use Pete as a DH...or trade him for something gigantic

    I biked by Citifield the other day. There's orange flexible fencing around a circular base but nothing there. Just to the right of the apple. I wouldn't;t anticipate a big statue if that turns out to be the spot

    I might be too optimistic here bit predicting an agreement is signed by late Friday afternoon, and camps reopening Monday.

    Oh great, Traxx is anti-masker

    I was addressing him talking and not necessarily what he said, but yeah the suicide stuff was probably inviting trouble that needn't have been introed
  6. Johnny Lunchbucket
    Yeah I think Terry is OK making comments here. Sandy and the club beside being gagged in the lockout are still associated and so correctly no-commented. I'm not sure about Rubin but given his actions as a reporter (taking on Bernazard accusations and Omar has-lobby) I'm sure what he knew he couldn't report on given an understanding with whoever shared that with him. We all heard the euphemisms and oughta have been able to connect the dots

    Haven't looked at the numbas, but I'd guess a debate coming on his Cooperstown credentials, and being a 1-town guy and good citizen gets in easy

    I have no doubt Harvey was a heavy user of Coke and who knows what else as a Met. Remember the bloody nose game?! I am sure it reveals a lot of internal turmoil I'm sure he struggled with a lot and shouldn't be looked at as a character flaw, necessarily but one of many signals of how unreliable and fragile he was

    Our friend Matt Hovvey is expected to take the stand today in a case involving the former Angels' staffer accused of providing the drugs that killed Tyler Skaggs in 2019. One thing he'll be asked about is a test message exchange with Skaggs wherein Skaggs asked Harvey for something that would help him be "loosey-goosey." Harvey's not facing any charges (at this time) but who knows what'll come out. He knows a few things about drugs, that's for sure.

I thought of doing McDonald's inspired cards for 2021 before I did the Meet the Mets cards. But my ideas were so elaborate that in the end, I put the McD project on the back burner because I didn't feel like investing all the time I thought would be needed to pull that one off the way I wanted to do it. Is that what you had in mind, something like that? Yes

    I personally think Typewriter Chewing Gum needs to get to work on their 2022 series
  13. Johnny Lunchbucket
    same. It's still hard not to think the game is really deteriorating but my passion about that isn't rising in tandem.

    Tylor magill: chews gum and walks

    Justin Toscano who did pretty good work for the Jersey papers, will cover the Braves for AJC this year

    Ice. Was a good athlete

    I know nobody really thought West was a good umpire but he was a character and there ain't no one else like him
  18. Johnny Lunchbucket
    Didn't see Ken Singleton or Tommy Davis or Lenny Randle neither
  19. Johnny Lunchbucket
    Yeah I don't know how much more development he has in him. I'd like to see him on the field. Seen him listed as 5-10/200 but also as 5-11/230 which probably means he's 5-7, 250
  20. Johnny Lunchbucket
    You 2 each make strong arguments I'm going with the one that better encapsulates the mayhem of the season
  21. Johnny Lunchbucket
    What a comeback!
  22. Johnny Lunchbucket
    Yes you will enjoy

    David Green. He was the Nicaraguan outfielder compared to Willie Mays with a better am, Andre Dawson with more speed, etc when he was on the way up. Key figure in the trade for not one but two Hall of Famers when he went from the Brewers system to the Cardinals' for Ted Simmons and Rollie Fingers. There he played an important part in Mets history: the Cardinals needed to make room for him in the outfield, so they traded Keith Hernandez and put George Hendrick at 1st. All that and then he drank himself into obscurity.

    I had high expectations for this guy, figuring any African American from the Pirates organization could only help. Hung out with John Milner.

    No. 4 starter
