I have starting pitchers, could use saves and holds

BoOkS

That was a skillful gather of a ball that wanted to eat him alive, though. Sometimes them directly at ya can be most difficult. Sketchy throw tho.

The radio ad where the auto-tuned chick sings " It only gets BEH-eh-ter / When we stick tuh-GEH-eh-thurr ..." I've heard that irritating song 100 times and have no idea what's being advertised

Start Mazeika NOW!!!!

Pillar making us not miss Zimmo that much. Smith playing like he's the one who loses ABs when it happens

Exactly. I hear that Scott is going to address the media before the game today. We should ask Ceetar what they'll be "allowed" to ask

How do you know no one was hurt? How do you know it was a "little disagreement that got heated?" That this all had to do with some on-field communication issues is entirely our imagination at this point, thanks in part to the irresponsible way the club handled themselves. For all we know Lindor banged McNeil's wife and he only just found out.

How do you know

These are human beings. Obviously you're allowed to ask, but it was made VERY clear they didn't want to talk about it. "Allowed." It's their fucking job to ask. They all answered the question, and then were barraged by the same question like the media were trying to one up each other "You couldn't get an answer you liked? watch me, I AM THE BEST i will get the answer! I will preface it with 'not to belabor the point!'" You make it seem as though lying is answering a question. And doubling down on stupid lies is somehow more noble than giving them the opportunity to be accountable. If Lindor didn't want to be "barraged" he should have thought twice about spewing bullshit. And there are are lot reasons to ask, two of the best players on the team just had a fistfight in the middle of a game.

Rojas was GREAT in that press conference. Fuck the vultures, "This is family, let's talk about the game. Talks up the guys constantly." that's the right way. Good job by him. Jesus Christ. He disrespected you too, only you don't realize it

Luis is butchering this too.

What the f is going on

Boy he's white

I'm into mazeika

Swing the bat

I always come in in the middle of these Twitter-Mets things and never have the time or patience to unravel who's who and finally definitely don't care about what goes in some private company slack. But them's are funny tweets.

Good catch

Ex-NY Mets manager Bobby Valentine to run for Stamford mayor: ‘Why not make it the greatest city in America?' https://www.ctinsider.com/local/stamfordadvocate/article/Ex-NY-Mets-manager-Bobby-Valentine-to-run-for-16159909.phphttps://www.ctinsider.com/local/stamfordadvocate/article/Ex-NY-Mets-manager-Bobby-Valentine-to-run-for-16159909.php [bLOCKQUOTE]“Many people … see things and ask why did they happen, and others see things that didn't happen and ask why not — I'm one of those guys,” Valentine said earlier this week during an interview at his sports academy in Springdale. “I just want to know why not make it the greatest city in America, why not spend your time so that the people that you grew up with and the people that live with you are happy and content as they're living, and I think that I've done a lot and I've learned a lot, and maybe my experience could make things better.” That experience, he noted, includes opening a restaurant in downtown Stamford in 1980, becoming an MLB manager in 1985 at the age of 35 and, decades later, earning an award from the emperor of Japan after twice managing the Chiba Lotte Marines. Why is he running for mayor now? “Because now is a time of my life that I can, and if I don't, I can't,” Valentine said. “My plate is rather clear.” Valentine has been the executive director of athletics at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield since 2013. He said a succession plan is already in place for that position. Valentine, 70, is seeking the mayorship as an unaffiliated candidate, though he used to be a registered Republican. “I don't want to have any letter on my forehead,” he said. “I don't like the division that those letters have created in the country and in our community, and I don't want to be judged by a name, by a party because this election and all, I would think, hometown and local elections are not about policy. It's about people and it's about needs of people, and to confuse what you're trying to do with what (the) policy is of a party … I don't have the time for that.” Among his priorities as mayor would be upgrading school buildings, ensuring that teachers can afford to live in the city where they work and continuing to fix Stamford's roads, he said. The current mayor, David Martin, a Democrat, is running for reelection for the last time this year. He is facing a challenge from Democratic state Rep. Caroline Simmons. No Republican candidate has emerged yet.[/bLOCKQUOTE] [bLOCKQUOTE]Earlier this week, he teased his mayoral campaign announcement on his social media accounts. Twitter users guessed that perhaps he was going to be the New York Mets' manager again. He led the team to the World Series in 2000. Asked if he had a message for the Mets fans who had hoped he was coming back, Valentine said: “You only have so much time in your life, and I've given them a lot of my life.” [/bLOCKQUOTE]

Pujols is obviously a slam-dunk Hall of Famer but I've had deep suspicions of him from the moment he arrived on the scene as a fully-formed musclebound superstar. Even his background smells funny to me, he was like, quietly whisked off the island into a St. Louis area high school and nobody seemed aware of him. I imagine he was actually reporting to a gym/lab that resembled Ivan Drago's
