    What has Battenfield done to earn a spot in the rotation over Megill or even Butto? Later

    I had the parameters in mind before that. But, 'ya got me. But that's ok, because there was an outfielder who passed through their hands without playing with them who went on to be a big slugger. I had forgotten his name. So you saved me time and embarrassment. A.J is out, but Everett is still in. But I still owe you a fervent response to your Bill Mazeroski Hall of Fame post. Just haven't had time to formulate it. Maybe ... Later

    Some more Metly content. The coach celebrating those Texas runners scoring was none other than one-time Mets second round draft pick Corey (I wonder if whippoorwill will like that spelling)Ragsdale. https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/7jfEuCaKlBZ.olHZ9snhCA--~B/Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTUwNTtweW9mZj0wO3E9OTU7dz05MDA7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2023-10/c9810160-755c-11ee-a6de-9eb64c938014> Later

    A Boy Named Seo wrote: I have two more baseball fixes, both inspired by soccer because everyone loves soccer. Which is why if you suggest it that way it might be a tougher sell to MLB executives than if you didn't mention soccer. It would be running head first into the NIH (not invented here) syndrome. But I'm not sure how baseball fans would react to that pitch (double entendre intended) of "Hey, soccer has this great idea. Why don't we try it?". Later

I think it was in the Brosnan book when he saw two veteran relievers shaking hands. The big paw was a fastball pitcher and the the guy with long fingers (Sal Maglie?) was a curve baller. I guess these days, long fingers would make it easier to throw a splitter. Later

    Right idea but too limited. I would prefer a clone of all exhibits to also be at CitiField. Later

    Where do I sign? Of course I'd like him on the Mets (Probably cheaper than Ohtani). And if they do sign him, who sez they would have to get rid of Pete? Don't fuck around. It isn't my money. Keep 'em both. Later

    =roger_that post_id=139942 time=1698269463 user_id=128] Another way of putting this is: do you suppose the Mets would have reaped the benefits of their later improvements, had they been more patient, or did they have to go through what they went through elsewhere in order to bring such results around?

    Edgy MD wrote: Manager's attitude toward the end of the season in 2023: "You might as well not pitch anybody more than an inning or two." Manager's attitude toward the end of the season in 1965: "You might as well let a guy keep pitching until his arm falls off." His arm didn't fall off. He ended up pitching six more years in the majors. I think pitch counts these days may hurt development more than they produce injuries. (with no stats to back that up.) Later

    He threw those zeros against a pretty good lineup that included righties Dick Allen, Dick Stuart, Alex Jonson and (a young)Adolfo Phillips. A memorable game. RIP Later

    Edgy MD wrote: From the no-experience list, I'm looking hard at Stephen Vogt, Seattle bullpen and quality control coach. He's got a lot of the Bochy/Melvin pedigree as a long-time/mostly part-time catcher, mostly in the west, a lot of sunburn in his profile picks and baseball cards, and he went straight from playing right onto a big-league coaching staff. He even has a big-looking head. Dangerous to be a big headed catcher. He must have taken a lot of foul tips that got around the edges of his mask. Later

    Yikes! I just checked my tickets. They booked me for Sverdlofsk. Thank goodness I have time to correct it. Thanks for the reminders. Later

The first is the face of Jerry Jones when the Cowboys lose a game. The second is the face of Dusty Baker in the dugout, not moving (or making a move), when his team is losing. I'm not sure which I like more. Later

Rambo: Got himself traded for Stroman, didn't even know it. He came back but the batters ate him down to the bone. Trautman: I'm sorry, I didn't know. Rambo: I'm the last one Sir. Later
