  3. SABR guys, Whaddaya' think? https://www.mlb.com/news/statcast-introduces-outs-above-average-for-infield-defense?partnerId=zh-20200109-156907-47943&query_id=1026&bt_ee=N9XlsBL9Kcn1u500gJAMG77%2BB83wcnKl3E3JsS5p55dhNXku9e6OMC7%2FberALscK&bt_ts=1578573438354https://www.mlb.com/news/statcast-introduces-outs-above-average-for-infield-defense?partnerId=zh-20200109-156907-47943&query_id=1026&bt_ee=N9XlsBL9Kcn1u500gJAMG77%2BB83wcnKl3E3JsS5p55dhNXku9e6OMC7%2FberALscK&bt_ts=1578573438354 Later
  4. =bmfc1 post_id=29320 time=1578327929 user_id=73] I would vote for one player and that player would be feted alone: Larry Walker. Schilling can go F himself despite his greatness. Bonds, Sosa and Clemens took themselves out of the running. Jeter can wait a year like most people. He doesn't deserve to be first ballot, only entry.
  5. =G-Fafif post_id=29300 time=1578208910 user_id=55] Tennessee Titans confirm lack of this Tom's Terrificness.
  6. Gavin Cecchini is alive, and is running from the flames in Australia: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7838747/New-York-Mets-baseball-star-Gavin-Cecchini-moved-Australia-flees-country-bushfires.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7838747/New-York-Mets-baseball-star-Gavin-Cecchini-moved-Australia-flees-country-bushfires.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 Later
  7. Loved by the stupidest fans in sports, who actually believe Derek Jeter was a good fielder. Later

  9. I'm pretty sure that the Mets added seating in OF (well, not in the OF but beyond the fence) so there were "bleachers". Plus, they are old guys so maybe they called "cheap seats" "bleachers". I heard it (great show) and let it pass. True that. I've heard the left field upper deck stands at Ebbets Field referred to as "the bleachers". And thank you Greg, for that great article. Later
  10. The NYPost NY athlete of the decade is: https://nypost.com/2019/12/26/mets-jacob-degrom-is-the-posts-ny-athlete-of-the-decade/https://nypost.com/2019/12/26/mets-jacob-degrom-is-the-posts-ny-athlete-of-the-decade/ Later
  11. "Hey TrackMan, your mama was an analog transistor you blind bastard!" Bring back the BOC for that one. I did laugh out loud. Later
  12. I'm in favor of anything that will get Angel Hernandez out of baseball. Later
  13. Vic, do you agree with me about Man and a Woman on the car movie list? Later
  14. I remember looking at an early Edgy- projected 2020 roster, seeing Mazza's name as one of the starters and thinking, "Holy crap!". Later
  15. =kcmets post_id=28650 time=1576772207 user_id=53] =MFS62 post_id=28647 time=1576764261 user_id=60]The other one refers to good news about that other team in town, and does not deserve enshrinement.
  16. I voted "Pete and Repeat." The other one refers to good news about that other team in town, and does not deserve enshrinement. Later
  17. =LWFS post_id=28625 time=1576716986 user_id=84] So what you're saying is... it takes careful tendin' [Ducks under crooked stick poking from offstage]
  18. "we ran some numbers and it came up less than he got. good for him" is about as tame as you can get ,yeah. Tame is for losers. I want a GM who says, "We didn't think that punk was worth it, and we're going to kick his ass every time he pitches against us to prove it. Now let's talk abut OUR team." Or words to that effect. Later
  19. Did anyone mention A Man and a Woman (1966)? Later
  20. Mets did not lose anybody in the Rule V Draft. Later
  21. Buster Olney on the Baseball Tonight podcast said we don't need to play the season. The Yankees are winning 110 games and the World Series. Sucks to be the Rays, and the Red Sox should go through the rebuilding. But, he said, it wasn't about the money. I gotta stop listening to that. I already don't listen to a grown man who calls himself "Buster"? Later
  22. Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: OK for a flyer I guess. Will replace Panik and Frazier as obligatory "local guy." Looking at his career stats what jumps out is leading the AL in victories in 2016 and in losses in 2017. He joins Steve Carlton and Phil Niekro as pitchers who have led their league in both wins and losses (Niekro did both in 1979). Later
  23. If it gives them flexibility to do other things, and keeps innings away from the still soft middle of the bullpen, it can't hurt. Later
  24. I didn't care where he signed, as long as it wasn't in the NL East. Later

On the bright side, he will make $9M. Wait, what did we do? Really. Wacha is dreck. Had potential once, but no more. Mike Pelfrey 2.0. Actually, I thought Ed Lynch. And when I looked them up, Ed's career WHIP was 1.360 and Wacha's is 1.325. Pelfrey's was 1.510. Later
