They've gone through the entire season to date with only four token starts from anyone other than their main five and, while four & five (Roark & Ross) may be shaky at times, their big three are as good as anyone's so unless something happens to one or more of those guys ... Strasburg hasn't had his regularly scheduled DL stint? He seems to have one every year. Later
  2. Sorry for my gaffe. Can I still say "Fuck Ichiro"? Later
  3. This may be my first ever IGT. Hope its not a jinx. But to get it off to a good start: https://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2017/6/26/15872600/ichiro-suzuki-record-center-field-rickey-henderson-old?yptr=yahoo Fuck Ichiro. Later
  4. Its amazing how well the games go when Angel Hernandez isn't part of the umpiring crew. Kudos to my kid, Montero. Later
  5. She's a Wonder, all right. Later

I was going to say "his ex-wife" (if he has one) but then I realized she would want him to stay in the majors so the alimony wouldn't stop. So I guess you're right. I can't think of anyone else who could root against him. Later
  7. Frayed Knot wrote: You probably can't blame Dodger fans considering the way this series has gone, but they sound like school kids attending their first game as soon as any LAD hit ball gets into the air. The noise increases as if they assume each one is destined to be a HR, only to sound so disappointed when it turns out to be a pop out to deep SS. They sound entitled, just like the fans of another team much closer to home. Later
  8. Losing is not wonderful, especially when you have to share the city and media space with the MFYs and their fans. Later
  9. Wish him a speedy recovery. We need some healthy arms in the bullpen. Later

  11. As someone who collects books on military aviation, I had a different frame of reference. Later

The Mitsubishi A6-M5 Zero-Sen fighter plane was one of the best combatants in the early years of the war in the Pacific. Montero should only be that effective on the mound for the Mets. Later
  13. RIP Later
  14. Well, at least they held Justin Turner hitless. Later

  16. Those are the only trade-able players? Jeff will be happy to know he doesn't have to rent a semi. Later
  17. That's what I meant by "or not". Thanks for the supporting data. Later
  18. Frayed Knot wrote: McEwing's lone HR off of the Big Unit was the 10th of his career 25 I was think more of Joe's "Randy killer" reputation (justified or not). Later
  19. Frayed Knot wrote: How cool is it for Cecchini that, for the remainder of his like, he gets to answer 'Clayton Kershaw' to the question about who he hit his first ML HR off of? (in only his 9th ML AB btw). Will he become this generation's Joe McEwing to Kershaw's Randy Johnson? Later
  20. He went to school in London, Ontario and I've been there. It is the home of the University of Western Ontario and where the famous bandleader Guy Lombardo (his Royal Canadians used to play on TV every New Years Eve) is buried. His grave is apparently a tourist attraction, because the person driving me from the airport stopped his car to show it to me. It was a good trip, and following Adam will help me remember it. Later
  21. Yup. That sounds like the one. I'm still sweating. Thanks! Later
  22. Don't remember the date, but it was a double header against the Pirates on a Sunday. It was blistering hot, high 90's, and the only available seats were in the upper deck at Shea. The Mets lost the first game something like 10-9. So, MMYF said it was too hot to stay, I reluctantly agreed and we left. When we left the ballpark, we decided to get some pizza, so we went to a place on Northern Blvd. in Flushing. We had ordered, sat down and tried to relax. Then, we realized that the air conditioning was broken and we were too drained to leave. So we ate, sweated, and then went home. We later found out the Mets went on to win the second game with a similar high score. That might have been fun to watch. Sigh. Oh, we also were at another game at Shea that included the longest (at that time) rain delay in Mets history. Later
  23. Frayed Knot wrote: It's also an ESPN game tonight (in most areas anyway) in addition to SNY & MASN, check your local listings. Another chance for those terrible ESPN know-nothings to smirk. I'd like to see the Mets kick some real butt on their ESPN games for a change. Later
