    F'milia is a contraction. Later

But he makes good, and quick, decisions on those, and seems to make a strong accurate throw each time. Joe and Evan (WFAN) were talking about him the other day when they were trying to figure out a way to get both Pete and Dom in the lineup and they noted he said he had played third base in high school and as a freshman in college. The strong throwing arm comes as no surprise. Later

    Middle infielder? David Thompson has never played anything other than third, or first in the minors: https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=thomps003davhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=thomps003dav I think someone adopted him on the old board. Later

    =kcmets post_id=12832 time=1560439784 user_id=53] I thought this was going to be one of those threads where McNeil is pictured signing The Declaration of Independence, crossing the Potomac and posing with Princess Diana.

    Every time I see Swoboda, I'm reminded of Edward G. Robinson. Because of their chinese anceztry. Uh, nope on Edward G. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_G._Robinsonhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_G._Robinson I dated his niece when we were in college, and she never mentioned anything about that. But Ron did have a Chinese grandfather, actually a step- grandfather (If there is such a thing). When he played for the Mets, there was a newspaper story that said that when his grandmother was a widow she took a job in a Chinese restaurant where she met, and later married, the owner. Later

    With a name like J T Struble, he will be great. Later

    =whippoorwill post_id=12587 time=1560198804 user_id=79] Isn't DR where all those people mysteriously dying at resorts?

    What's this halfway stuff? We should take to heart Churchill's famous speech: We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender And we shall fight them in the Bronx. And win. Let's Go Mets! Later

    =41Forever post_id=12501 time=1560169296 user_id=69] Brett Gardner, in an 0-19 stretch, threw his batting helmet against the wall in frustration. But it bounced right back, hitting him in the face and opening a wound that required six stitches to close. Yankee magic!

    Good point. I'll bet every one of us has pretended to be Elton at some point in time. And I've also pretended to be Kiki Dee At my company's Holiday Party in December, I told them how fortunate I was to be alive after my surgery earlier in the year. Then I donned funny glasses and karaoke sang "I'm Still Standing". Later

    When he has to make a tough decision, at least he gets sage advice. https://www.yahoo.com/news/mets-manager-mickey-callaway-reaches-162140429.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/mets-manager-mickey-callaway-reaches-162140429.html Is this some alternate universe? Later

    When Kelvin Chapman returned, I wondered why, after all those years, they still hadn't found anybody better. But then his '84 slash line was .289/.356/.401 and I realized they probably couldn't have. Later

    I remember the checkerboard pattern cut in the grass at old Municipal Stadium in Kansas City. It was cool to look at but I don't the players paid any heed to it when they were chasing down a ball. Later

    I don't think Lewis Black is an MFY fan: (If you're at work, keep the sound down) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3J3_-czh6Ahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3J3_-czh6A Later

    Guess my glass half empty view isn't working out too well in these prediction threads. Later

    In our "Firsts" thread, were we asked to guess which lefthander would be the first to throw a shutout this year? If you picked Vargas you get your name on a plaque in Stockholm. Later

    Well, if anyone was keeping a spot warm for when they sign Craig Kimbrell, they can relax. He just signed with the Cubs. Later

    I wiffed on this one ... so far. Good for him. Later
