    We would know that, but other Mets fans would know it as where the Mets stadium is located, and the name of the subway station they use to go to the games. A good choice on multiple levels. Later

    Because of what it will be, this rings truest to me. Marcus Aurelius’ principle. Later

    Their to the thread title, the mfys have retired the numbers of a lot of creeps. Later

    I’m not sure if that matters. If you think he doesn’t belong, cast your vote. Should it matter how many others or percent of others feel the same? Btw , I’m not voting. I think this is something I’m not concerned with. Later

    Rootin’ for my homie and adoptee. Later

    I never appreciated him as much as he deserved. But looking back at what he contributed, I admit I was wrong. he gave all that he had. And I appreciate that now. Later

    Every time I come back to this thread I get an image of Tevye leaving his beloved village of Anatevka. ( cue the music) Later

    There’s been lots of churn in the bullpen so I’m picking Brazoban again. He fits the qualifications - not counted on. Not a top prospect. And he could be cut. I’m still waiting for last year’s prize. I mean c’mon. It’s not like I’m demanding the Nobel peace prize. Later.

    I was an “ in game thread” guy, too. The things ya’ learn. Later

    I thought “ how about that”? And it reminded me that it was used by Mel Allen on his mfy broadcasts . Yikes! Later

    I remember a radio interview with Rogers Hornsby, who threw compliments around like manhole covers. He was asked best second baseman he had ever seen , and he answered “ Bill Mazeroski”. He continued, “ there used to be a magazine called the Rawlings guide. They published issues on how to play the various positions. He said the second base one would have had Maz’s picture on the cover. “ And there was that homer… RIP Later

    So, is this a done deal or are we still in courtship? Later

    Of course we had no 2026 dark horse met. They haven’t played any games yet. But if you meant 2025 there was one. Using the only true way to measure Metly value- Schaefer points, that player was brazoban. Check the thread. Later

    I started out with baseball internet on a site called Fastball. Several team - specific sites spun off . One I gravitated toward was the dickie thon fan club. It was mainly blue jays fans from Canada. But they had non baseball forums, had meetings in different cities each year and was a fun place until political differences and other team fandom turned off some members. A spin off of Boston fans became the Sons of Sam Horn. After some intermediate sites ( at one I “ met” lefty specialist) here I am. I know and frequently visit amazing avenue. I don’t like the look and feel and especially don’t like the lack of the variety of forums we have here. ( music, movies , and the politics threads). Unless those diverse topics were accommodated I might not follow the crowd there. Later

    First, tell me what a captain does on a major league baseball team. Then, I'll tell you if I think this is a big deal. Later

    I was watching the end credits for Tremors III Back to Perfection, the third in the Tremors sci-fi comedy series.* At the very end of the scrolling credits , there was the disclaimer: "No screechers or graboids were injured in the making of this movie". It gave me an unexpected loud laugh (You have to know the series). What are some funny things you've seen that have been hidden in movie credits? (Guess appearances like Wolverine at the end of Deadpool don't count) Later * = please don't judge

    Edgy, I was telling my grandson that when I was his age I could name the lineups and rotations of every major league club and that today I can barely name all the Mets . I appreciate how you continually update this thread, as I use it as my reference. Later

    I remember that dispute elRoy’s success over the years, Mel Allen always called him Leroy. I also remember he was the first pitcher I heard to throw the forkball. Rip. Later
  22. MFS62
    What happens if Polanco is the second coming of Marv throneberry ( ok , maybe dick Stuart) at first base? Who is the logical backup? Vientos? Baty? Someone else? And where do you move polanco? Later
  23. MFS62
    The odds on this prediction are looking pretty good. Later
  24. MFS62
    Williams was traded. Benge or Morabito. Later
  25. MFS62
    What a shame. So young RIP Later
