    It's amateurish. And how does a "kid" nail down a big name client like Bauer? According to a story I read a few months ago, she had read that he was unsatisfied with his agent, so she just asked him. Later

    14 hour old pop up on my tablet, please ignore the man behind the curtain. ABC-TV New York did the same thing last night on the 5:30 newscast. Leaning into the commercial before the sports report, they announced upcoming story about, "The newest Met". Just a tease to keep us waiting for ..... nothing new, just that the negotiations were ongoing. Sneaky bastages, toying with us. Later

It's also possible Kay is only relaying what was known in 18 when the Mets were tipped and subsequently did nothing He apparently knew longer than that. “I spoke to a number of women the last couple of years who told me about Callaway,” Kay said in a rant that lasted more than 15 minutes And didn't say or do anything.

    =Centerfield post_id=55389 time=1612391434 user_id=65] From the article: “I spoke to a number of women the last couple of years who told me about Callaway,” Kay said in a rant that lasted more than 15 minutes. “They said he's one of the biggest dogs you've ever seen in baseball. So it was well known. And the guy keeps getting jobs. The Mets hired him. How did the Mets not know? The women that are covering the team were getting hit on constantly in texts and the Mets had no clue whatsoever.” Hey dickhead. If you knew, why didn't you say anything? Why did you stay quiet? Imagine the lack of self awareness it takes to write that article.

    Michael Kay (yeah, I know) predicts the floodgates are about to burst with stories like this. https://www.nj.com/yankees/2021/02/yankees-michael-kay-mickey-callaway-and-many-more-preyed-on-women-reporters-marriages-careers-will-be-ruined.htmlhttps://www.nj.com/yankees/2021/02/yankees-michael-kay-mickey-callaway-and-many-more-preyed-on-women-reporters-marriages-careers-will-be-ruined.html Were there any gift baskets involved?

    Pitcher Paul Foytack - 90 He was on that 1961 Tiger team that won 101 games, but unfortunately came in second to the MFY powerhouse. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/f/foytapa01.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/players/f/foytapa01.shtml He passed away Jan 23rd. RIP Later

    My theory: I think (hope) this is all about the back pages of the papers. The Mets are signing Bauer and the Jets are getting Watson. Both teams don't want to share the back pages if the deals are announced on the same day, so they're playing chicken to let the other team announce their blockbuster first. I can dream, can't I?

    Just saw on BMFS's thread that Keith Law named him the 19th best prospect on his top 100 list. The lists I've seen project his ML debut in 2023. Later

    I'm sure that if Bouton had been elected to the HOF, he would have told them he wanted to go in as a Seattle Pilot. He was that kind of iconoclast. Later

    Before we get all misty, the Dick Smith who passed away was not the Dick Smith who played for the early Mets. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/smithdi01.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/smithdi01.shtml But, RIP. Later

    Frustrating. He teased us early and then regressed. Later
