    At least he didn't totally suck last night: 4.2 IP 4 H 1 R 1 ER 2 BB 3 K Later

McLoughlin turned Scott on to the Orange Dreamsicle flavor of Reign Total Body Fuel, a pre-workout energy drink that contains, according to its website, 300 milligrams of caffeine. That's the equivalent of about two to three cups of standard drip coffee, or a bottle and a half of the popular energy drink Celsius. Whether he makes the majors this year or not, my adoptee Trey has already made a positive contribution to the team. Later

    IIRC, Lou Johnson went to one of the two Universities of Alabama, but I don't remember whether South or West. That's all I got, y'all. Later

The funny thing is, the LSU team was on ESPN and Livy wasn't good enough to be a starter for them. She is also the TV spokesperson for Vuori, a brand of workout clothing. Later

    I'm still waiting to find out which is the real deal McNeil. Later

    Benjamin Grimm wrote: Holy cow! I live in the Philly metro area and I had no idea the Phillies were doing so well. It's comforting to know how well I've been able to tune them out. The Phillie fans haven't been too vocal about their success because they've been too busy eating their young. Later

    Edgy MD wrote: When the Mets win AND the starting pitcher is the one credited with the W, we should all get free pizza. That reminds me of what someone (Ben?) wrote in the prediction thread. (I paraphrase) He predicted no Mets starter would win 10 games this year. It has become a rarity. Later

    I commented last year that Buck used to sit batters when it looked like they were starting to get hot. And early this year I posted that I hoped the new manager wouldn't do that. If a batter is in a groove, keep him in there. It isn't as though this is a lefty- lefty thing. Later

    After I typed that, I realized I should have modified it with something like "Home grown". I remember stories saying that Mays, Agee and Cleon were from Alabama. Later
  15. MFS62
    The most famous Mets Alabaman I can think of was Cleon Jones. And since he was signed before many of the southern schools were integrated, I'll say he went to Alabama A&M. Later
  16. MFS62
    And U of Alabama was Dave Magadan. Later

    =kcmets post_id=154610 time=1715112495 user_id=53] I have to ask, how the funk would you know a guy that had like 20 PA as a Met went to some obscure school in Alabama?

    Cedrick Landrum - North Alabama (NOT an oxymoron) Later

Also, I bet you know at least two other Mets as being from Alabama. (off the top of my head) Frank Lary and Willie Mays And Lary went to the U of Alabama at Tuscaloosa, which doesn't specifically appear on your list. Later

    What was the date we (and he painfully) found out he didn't wear a cup? It made quite an, uh, ... impact on the IGT. (or am I thinking of another player?) Later

    Seeing a Mets pitcher seems to revive Goldschmidt from any funk he happens to be in at the time. Later

    17th in MLB in runs scored, 17th in MLB in OPS. That's consistent with their record. As football coach Bill Parcells said, "You are what your record is". Later
