  1. =MFS62 post_id=64734 time=1621443337 user_id=60] I'd like to buy a wet teddy bear, but there's no place around here to get them. (since I still don't get SNY, I don't know whether that commercial is shown there) Later

  3. I didn't know this , but we all could have guessed. The last pitch thrown by Bob Gibson in a major league game was a hit for a grand slam by Pete LaCock. Ten years later, they both played in an old timer's game. LaCock came to bat against Gibson. Gibson hit him with a pitch. Later

If you are one of the folks who believe things happen in threes, the top pitching prospect (Allen) and top outfield prospect (Crow-Armstrong) are out with injuries that require surgery. Somebody please put top catching prospect Francisco Alvarez in a plastic bubble. PLEASE! Later
  5. Three good innings of Good Reid-Foley, as it turns out, which means a lot more than squat. Can he be this generation's Terry Leach, coming out of the bullpen to become their most effective starter? We won't know unless he gets some fucking starts. He's already gone four innings. Why use an "opener?" Start him and stretch him out as long as he can go, and then bring in the more competent members of the bullpen to finish the game. But then, there I go trying to be logical again. I gotta' stop doing that. Later
  6. Baseball-reference doesn't have a John Jay page through the main name entry search!!! The search only comes back Jay Johnstone. The only way to find John Jay's page is to go through the team page, then click on his name. I'll take a pass on all of them as defenders, but at least Maybin can hit (a little). Later
  7. When you enter "John Jay" , you don't get his page, not even an option. You get Jay Johnstone. Later
  8. That lineup has a late 70's level of ineptitude to it. You want to watch maybe two (maximum three) guys in the lineup, then you go get another beer and something to eat because you won't miss anything. Later

The last time anyone was comfortable with the third string catcher coming to bat in that situation were fans of the 1961 MFYs, when their catchers were Elston Howard (111 G, 21 HR), Johnny Blanchard (48 G, 21 HR) and Yogi Berra ( 15 G, 22 HR). Berra played 81 G in Left Field that year. Later
  10. =bmfc1 post_id=64323 time=1621105795 user_id=73] I'd like to know the thought process behind using Lucchesi instead of Yamamoto. Was it based on some high-level analytics? Whatever it was, don't do it again.

According to SNY, Nimmo "suffered a setback" on his finger contusion and will not be rejoining the team as early as originally hoped. Later
  14. =G-Fafif post_id=64209 time=1621020861 user_id=55] Tyler Flowers and Madame have retired.
  15. =Ceetar post_id=64148 time=1620937311 user_id=102] I guess the big question becomes, did they all get it via exposure to the same person, or did they spread it amongst themselves?

But he still loved baseball and later was a part owner of a major league team. (the Pirates?) Later
  19. SNY says the Matt Harvey story is the biggest "What if" in Mets history. https://sny.tv/articles/matt-harvey-mets-what-if-historyhttps://sny.tv/articles/matt-harvey-mets-what-if-history That probably deserves its own thread, but obviously the writer hasn't followed the team for very long.

  21. =Fman99 post_id=63904 time=1620782597 user_id=86] As long as it's not a nudie book starring Suzyn Waldman I'm probably fine with whatever.
  22. Los libros. Later
  23. Honestly, Your Honor, I'm not an axe murderer. But when she told me her favorite baseball book was Dynasty - by Peter Golenbach , about the MFYs, I don't know what came over me. Judge - Justifiable homicide. You're free to go. Later
