  1. I don't think this is happening, but I do KNOW from researching this that Tracksuit has apparently https://twitter.com/martinonyc?s=09blocked me on Twitter. I need to see the incident NOW!!!!
  2. Brad Brach DFAed to make room for Villar
  3. I liked the idea of Marisnick. The thing with these part-time guys is, you can less afford to get injured than anyone else since availability is supposed to be what you're all about. My only specific memory of him is that he wasn't there when it was required he be there . That and his dumb hair
  4. This seems pretty 👍
  5. Winkowski who we got 4 Matz, to the RedSox
  6. @NYPost_Mets: Per reports, Mets are getting OF prospect Khalil Lee from KC in a three-way trade that involves the Red Sox. Still unclear who the Mets are giving up.
  7. Tracksuit reports Mets involved in a 3-way with Boston and Kansas City.... Only known thing is Bentiendi to KC???
  8. I remember I was at the "Islanders bar" to watch a soon-to-begin Rangers-Isles game the evening this deal was announced. I wouldn't have expected that to have been the most vivid memory I had of him. And fwiw, the Mets might have been better off than if this chump ever arrived. Hard to imagine him being as good as either Davis or McNeil, whose reps woulda gone to Lowrie.
  9. Me and Mike Tyson were born the very same week. My life has been less interesting than his
  10. fwiw I think the Aunt Jemima change was tastefully executed, it's the same color scheme and layout. It was a business decision not a social media one. It's still corn syrup disguised as maple syrup for people on a budget, we'd never buy that stuff
  11. I was at that 2008 game too. Got there right when the gates opened, walked the whole ballpark, soaking in every second I could. May or may not have cried more than once that night. It's weird and I knew they were a longshot but I was "all-in" on the 2018 squad showing they had learned something from the disappointment of the 2017 flop, and the game itself was such a wild ride. As I recall up big on an early Delgado salami, losing it, then positioning themselves for a gigantic comeback-- Muffys insane leadoff triple and then bases-loaded, no-outs. I had already secured playoff tickets. We were sitting with our back to the rising Citifield, so time was running out on all fronts, and that's just weeks before the Madoff/financial crashes awaited. And to lose all that? It was palpable death ☠️☠️ including the last remnants of my innocent fandom. They didn't deserve it. As I recall they shit the bed again the next night in more traditional Met fashion, failing to mount any kind of attack. End of an era.
  12. Somewhere (I have to dig it up) I have pics of me, my brothers and my dad in the same left-field Mezzanine corner, taken ~25 years apart (76 and 01, iirc). That's a cool thing.
  13. Switch-hitter, multi-position infielder looks like this year's Edwin Nunez. I recall him getting lots of hype as a youngster but turned into a journeyman, peaked several years ago with Houston, since been with the O's, the Marlins the Jays, Milwaukee

  16. https://flic.kr/p/5pkqrZhttps://live.staticflickr.com/3278/2889495851_551c89e4d5_b.jpg> September 24, 2008 - Daniel Murphy over runs the ball, allowing the tying run to score in the Mets 9-6 loss to the Cubs. A few of us were in bleachers that night, and this was the first time I watched a game from through the fence under the bleachers. I have a picture of Johnny Lunchbucket in absolute misery buried somewhere in my archives from that night... I love that shot. You absolutely captured the moment everything changed for me. I'm not joking. That night damaged my fandom in such a way that it was ever the same again. http://mbtn.net/images/dejected2.jpg>
  17. Newly arriving righty Jordan Yamamoto is a newlywed Instagram WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM Madison is a former kindergarden teacher who has moved onto a full-time gig as a Baseball Wifey including responsibilities of Instagramning photos of herself and her dog. Instagram WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM
  18. Rose and Kendrick shut out
  19. No doubt about that. I have Castro atop my guys-who'll-be-traded list
  20. Guillermo Heredia is shitting his pants now
  21. He's, um... He's not as good as George Springer
  22. Let's stay behind the dish and go with Robinson Chrinos
  23. Rene Rivera?
  24. I'm into this Bryant and Hendricks deal. I'll even throw in Miguel Castro and Jordan Yamamoto to make it happen.
