A great loss to the sports writing profession. RIP. Later

Who was the other third baseman worth talking to/ about? A-Rod? Oh yeah, it must have been, because that selfish creep didn't want to move off shortstop to make way for a batter one. I voted Jefferies. Later

Andres Regnault is a catcher who played for the DSL Mets 1 team last year. He is 6 feet tall and is listed at 250 pounds. Oh, and he went .333/.573/.420 with 9 HR and 45 RBI in 53 games. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=regnau000andhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=regnau000and Welcome to the family, Andres. I'm sure the more balanced diet we'll feed you will pare off some of that poundage. Later

And 8-4 good guys is your final. Lagares homered. 4 RBI for McNeil. Alonso TRIPLED! Dom Smith with an o-fer. Zach Lee with 4 scoreless innings (6 hits allowed) for the win. Later

This is my favorite part - something we here all knew about for years: “At the meeting, Derek said, ‘What other shortstop would you want playing here?' and I started rolling off names,” says Cashman. “I got, like, three names down and Casey said, ‘Stop, this isn't productive.' All together now - Fuck Derek Jeter. Later

An 848 OPS says he'll be playing somewhere this year after his elbow heals, but it won't be in a New York Mets uniform. Later

Mets (re-)sign Ruben Tejada to a minor league deal. He'll head to extended Spring Training - for now. Welcome back. Hope you're fully healed. Later

If I want to see future Mets instead of ex-Mets, Hartford is the closest place (for me) to see the AA Binghamton team. Here's the promotions schedule: https://www.milb.com/hartford/news/yard-goats-release-2019-promotional-schedule/c-303629864https://www.milb.com/hartford/news/yard-goats-release-2019-promotional-schedule/c-303629864 Note the name changes during the season. Side note, is there a Going to the Game thread yet? Later

I'd be more confident with this one pitching: http://www.chillertheatre.com/zach/news0903.htmhttp://www.chillertheatre.com/zach/news0903.htm Later

Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: The Strawberry quote I remember was after signing with the Dodgers "Now you'll see the REAL Darryl Strawberry." Yup (R) My favorite was when he was being scouted in high school and someone told he reminded him of Ted Williams. Strawberry replied, "Who's Ted Williams". Later

Baseball Digest Classic. Later

I never liked SI. I was never into yacht racing off Australia or underwater pretzel throwing from Provo, Utah (AAU sponsored). It was like the illegitimate offspring of a union between Sport and the New Yorker It was the Wide World of Sports of the print media. I preferred my sports media more immediate with things like scores and statistics. I'm sure there was a market for what they were selling, but i wasn't buying. It was the Sporting News for me. The final turnoff was when their "pro football expert" Tex Maulle predicted the Colts would beat the Jets in Super Bowl III by the score of 66-0. (as Casey Stengel used to say, "you can look it up") At that point, they lost all credibility as a sports magazine. Later

At least my cheesesteak record wasn't broken by him. Later

Have to go for the Ellery Queen cover because of its uniqueness. And I can imagine that Ron Darling may have read more issues of that publication than the one in which he was featured. Later

Once opposing managers start some lefty pitchers against them, Lagares will start to get more and more playing time. Maybe 40-50 starts, lotsa' games as a defensive replacement. .270 - 5 - 29 Later

=Centerfield post_id=4539 time=1553004623 user_id=65] Signs a minor league deal. Will make $3 million if he makes the club. Um. So, why were we not in on that?

Riots starting in Philadelphia in 3...2...1.... No big news. They riot in Philadelphia when someone wishes them "good morning". Later

Melting Pot Mets for me. I loved Baseball Digest, but its SI by a slight margin in this contest. And, I'm going to try to stay away from voting for any cover with an MFY logo on it. (even though Yogi became a Met) Later
