Thanks for the research. It was the way my friend told it- often. Perception (of a pissed off fan) is reality. I never had a reason to question him. I hadn't paid much attention to the series, it was the American League, after all. I told it as he used to tell it to me. Later

Tony LaRussa (76 years old) is the new manager of the White Sox. The guy that condoned McGwire and Canseco's cheating. The arrogant prick from the Cardinals. That asshole. My old friend who I've known for over 35 years, but haven't seen for a while, is a fervent White Sox fan. His screen name on the old FASTBALL.com site was Shoeless Don (for Shoeless Joe Jackson). He must be fuming. He loathed LaRussa and called him "Tony The punk". He never forgave him for (an unnecessary wise-ass move to show how smart he was) pinch-running Jerry Dybzinski in the ninth inning of game 5 of the 1983 ALCS. The guy got picked off, costing the Sox the game and the pennant. Later

Newsday finally broke the Daily News streak. Can the News recover the glory? Can Newsday repeat? Will there be a different outcome? The tension builds. Later

Exactly who does this benefit? The J-Rod consortium can't raise the amount of cash as the Cohen deal. DiBlasio will be forcing the Wilpons to accept a deal for less money? Not likely. They could sue for constraint of trade. And the ultimate losers will be the fans, as the matter is tied up in courts far beyond free agent signing season. An bad situation for all concerned. Later

And he was negative runs saved when he did. Since then, neither St Louis nor Atlanta put him out there for even one inning. So I wouldn't think he is. Later

Mets declining the options on Frazier, Chirinos and Ramos, as 14 Mets become free agents. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/14-mets-become-free-agents-184917553.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/sports/14-mets-become-free-agents-184917553.html Later

I saw a news article that said the DH will not be used in the National League in 2021 (the last year of the current union contract), but may be reinstated in the next agreement. Later

From SNY: Oct. 26, 12:22 p.m. Steve Cohen has the 23 votes required to approve his purchase of the Mets, according to SNY's Andy Martino, who reports that If New York City mayor Bill de Blasio moved to kill the deal, the group led by Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez would not have the votes. League officials still do not believe that de Blasio will block the deal, according to Martino. People familiar with the sale process told Martino that Rodriguez and Lopez, who finished second in the bidding for Cohen, are not well-positioned to jump back in, with Martino adding that "sources firmly believe that owners would not approve that group."

Frayed Knot wrote: Start off by not paying any attention to any record that contains the words: Post Season. It's not a constant marker and therefore is almost completely meaningless. Of course, but a day without insulting Derek Jeter is a day without sunshine. Justin Turner is in the process of breaking all of Duke Snider's Dodger post season records, mainly because that choke-artist Duke didn't have a single hit in an NLDS or NLCS for his whole career. Them's fightin' woids. Step outside. Later

I think he's the kind of pitcher who needs a good defense behind him. So he may have a major league future, but not with the Mets. Later

David Wright's New Book Deserves Its Own Thread
MFS62 replied to Johnny Lunchbucket's topic in New York Mets Talk
Benjamin Grimm wrote: I think the initial post in this thread gives a hint in that regard. It could be dull good or dull bad. Just wondering which. Later -
Nightengale is a Jeff Wilpon/ARod stooge. He was the one that designated the JRod group as the “frontrunner”. This sounds like a Dick Young "sportswriter trying to muck things up" kind of thingie. Later

David Wright's New Book Deserves Its Own Thread
MFS62 replied to Johnny Lunchbucket's topic in New York Mets Talk
Why does it deserve its own thread? That is usually deserved for a book that is either very good or very bad. Which is it? Later -
If de Blasio pursues this, it might be viewed as the most anti-New York action ever taken by a New York City mayor. He will be vilified as this generation's O'Malley by countless (voting) New York sports fans. Later
