  1. RIP Knucksie.
  2. Does this guy play third base? Mets have so many possibilities still. Looking over Intl prospects came across a familiar name-- OF Mel Rojas Jr., who flamed out of the Pirates system then became a switch-hitting power-hitter MVP type in Korea. You'd figure Luis would know about what this dude is all about
  3. ahem. http://www.thecranepool.net/phpBB32/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=29936http://www.thecranepool.net/phpBB32/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=29936
  4. I'm just hoping he's better than Brian Schneider, who said all the right things at his arrival, had an even better rep for staff-handling, runner-throwing-outing, and pitch-framing. Oh yes I said staff handling
  5. This leaves only Noah Syndergaard as the last living descendant of the Tim Bogar Trade Chain Bogar for Luis Lopez-->Lopez for Bill Pulsipher II --> Pulsipher for Lenny Harris --> Harris for Jeromy Burnitz II --> Burnitz for Victor Diaz --> Diaz for Mike Nickeas --> Nickeas for Syndergaard-d'Arnaud-Buck-->Buck for Dilson Herrera --> Herrera for Jay Bruce --> Bruce for Ryder Ryan -->Ryan for Todd Frazier II (already released or non-tendered or whatever)
  6. =Centerfield post_id=52445 time=1608315112 user_id=65] I don't know if the even the Rays can help a degenerative shoulder condition. I guess we'll see. Memories. I remember thinking he would suck and get injured. Then he sucked and got injured.

  8. Seemed like he was the Pirates first base coach for like 50 years

  10. I was so thrilled to connect 3 I missed 4

  15. Dae Sung Koosman. Wait.
  16. Yeah I'm not sure this works given our relative weakness in trade fodder. I mean it could but would we want it to
  17. RHP, 30 years old, posted by the Tokyo Giants. Went 14-2, 1.97 last season. Said to to be similar to Tanaka.
  18. I suppose the game plan with many of these guys is, sign with a shitty team, have a good half-year, and get traded to a good team. The shit team gets competent play and a relief pitching prospect, and the player gets rewarded for sticking it out few months in a pennant race.
  19. Became an athlete to combat playground taunting from kids who nicknamed him "Jeickoff"
  20. 1983 Rusty Staub couldn't field either but he was a dangerous late-inning bat. I'm envisioning Muffy playing a similar role for the 2021 Mets, not as a starting infielder
  21. Just an update here: Peter Frampton's memoirs weren't all that interesting either
  22. I'm combining Muffy's availability ('21 option declined by Colorado), our relative question marks at 2nd base, Sandy/Jared's remarks about the importance of depth, Muffy's track record of postseason destruction, awesome Metquity, and the official attainment of Veteran Leadership Status to make him an intriguing pickup possibility for the 2021 Mets who are shedding Veteran Middle Infield depth in Cano and Lowrie. I think for him, it's a choice at this point of starting for a crappy team that's not trying or making minor contributions to a club that is. Coming off a dreadful year. Muffy II? PROVE ME WRONG
  23. I was born on Dick Rusteck Day.
