  1. Whatever trade value Peralta had is dropping with each outing. He's been hit pretty hard in 3 of his last five outings prior to this one. Later
  2. I was concerned about Alvarez. On the 6 o’clock news on channel 7, they showed him being hit on the hand by a Lindor practice swing. But i guess he wasn’t injured. later
  3. I don’t care. why do you feel it is necessary to do judge what I write? What do you do for a living? Smiling Proctologist? later
  4. Yes I want to be unrealistic. I want the Mets to fill those lists with loads of prospects who come to the majors and produce winners year after year. I'm sick and tired of "LOL Mets" comments. We were told that Stearns was they guy who would do that, and so far he hasn't delivered. And that was the question that started this thread. I'm done with Stearns. Later
  5. Andrés Giménez has turned into a pretty decent player. But you have to give talent to get talent. Later
  6. At quick glance, Seattle has 6, LA (n)has 10, and Stearns' old Milwaukee team has 6 (but I'm not sure how many were drafted by him). Those teams, plus the MFYs and the Braves seem to dominate those lists year after year. Don't try to dazzle me with facts. I'm a Mets fan The basic issue is, I still don't think Stearns has lived up to his reputation as an organization builder since he joined the Mets. Later
  7. That's a shame. Consider the percentage of people who play professional baseball who make it to the majors, and how many are able to stay in the majors for ten or more years. If someone can do that, they deserve the thrill of seeing their name on a HOF ballot. Who knows? They may have been the favorite of a guy who becomes a HOF voter, and they get one vote. That shouldn't be taken away from them. Later
  8. But that's what I want - an organization so full of talent that the replacements do pop up like a gumball machine when players get promoted to the majors or leave the organization. There are some teams that have a disproportionate number of players on those lists, year after year, no matter who gets promoted or traded. Is it a bad thing to want them to be one of those teams or be disappointed when they aren't? Later
  9. Of course. But I'm not just talking about players at the major league doorstep on that list. He' s had a few years (and drafts and international signing periods) to have found some players who should be appearing at the lower levels of these lists because of their ability and/or promise. And they haven't. Later
  10. Dave Mlicki will always have a place in our hearts. Didn't know the rule had changed. Thanks Later
  11. He was in the majors for 14 years. Anyone with ten or more years is eligible be on the ballot. That doesn't mean he got many votes. But I'm sure if you checked, he was on it. Later
  12. MLB.com announced it's updated list of top 100 prospects. The Mets have one player - Tong - at 83, who's been getting his ass kicked at AAA. Gee, I'm glad the owner hired Stearns to build an organization. (sarcasm meter = 9.7) It should also be noted that 3 rookies who were all Top 50 prospects two months ago are all showing a lot of promise in the majors in McLean, Benge and Ewing. And two more, RH Brandon Sproat and # 84 on the list Jett Williams., were traded for Peralta and Myers. But there is apparently nothing in the pipeline to replace them. Later
  13. I’ve read and heard many times that one of the ground breaking things about “Citizen Kane” (1941) is that it was the first time a ceiling had been shown in a movie set. i just saw “the Mark of Zorro” (1940) in which Tyrone Power thrusts his sword into the ceiling of a tavern. so much for movie history. later
  14. Where my grandson just graduated. later
  15. It's about time the Mets lucked into a Craig Biggio-like successful position move. There may not be a need for it, but I'd give it a try. Later
  16. They measure their gas in liters, measure home runs in meters and temperature in Celsius. When they announce the attendance, I wonder if that will be in American numbers. If the Mets gat some wins in this series, will they be allowed to bring them back into the States without paying tariff? L:ater ,
  17. Yikes! I would have thought that a .354/.447/.998 slash line for John Olerud would have made him an all-star. But it didn't. Later
  18. When you have that many cleanup hitters it means you don’t have one. later
  19. Maybe when he went down after that game he figured out what went wrong and has corrected it. I'd like to find out. Later
  20. I'm for keeping Thornton on the major league roster instead of Senga. Trade Senga, demote him or release him, I don't care. Thornton pitched a really effective game. Give him a chance until he proves he can't do the job. Later
  21. If you had to recap the scoring in the White Sox 22 runs against KC, we could run out of disc space. Later
  22. Let him have his own opinions. But he has no right to, and shouldn't, drag* Posey down with him Thanks, Later *= no pun intended
  23. Wasn't Scott on the IL with "impingement"? Someone will have to be dropped to make room for him. Later
  24. Haven't been following. What did he do/say? Posey is idolized in SF. Later
