    I'm not sure where the Fuck Ichiro came from. But if repeating it helps the Mets win, its as good a mantra as any. Later

    I hope they keep Montero up long enough to watch Bartolo pitch. He would learn a lot. Later

    If watching the Mets for 40 years makes you bald, my hair should be growing inward. Later

    I'm surprised Stu Miller made it for the O's. I only remembered him pitching for SF. Good Job. Later

    I hope we will never have to find out how big a lead must be that Niese can't try to cough it up. Enough is enough. I have more confidence that my Enron stock will rebound. Later

I was referring to your comment: Within that article are three or four links to previous pieces from the past week repeating their own recent articles. Later

    Edgy MD wrote: Yeah, that's certainly a valid angle. And to the extent that I'm guilty of piling on by sharing, I didn't know the News was getting a week out of this, for what that's worth. Hey, the news outlets have been obsessed for about a week with those Olympic guys who got drunk, busted up a gas station and then lied about it. If it had happened in the Bronx, they would be still in the slammer instead of giving daily press conferences. Al least we know and remember Doc. We all want to see him get the help he needs. But regurgitating old stories is unnecessary. Later

And the stadium there is really nice, because the water is right over the fence, and if you hit a home run out to right field, it could land in the water." Which Denard Span did, literally five seconds after I said that. That was eerie. Cute story. Now, please save that kind of stuff for when the Mets are at bat. Later

And the other set is a long time infielder, and a long time coach and skipper. My guess is Bob Lemon, because Jim Lemon's full name was James Robert Lemon. Are you that sneaky? Later

    Washington - Gil Hodges. Later
  14. MFS62
    Orioles - Frank Cashen? Later

    SF- Willie Mays. And Fred Wilpon has paid more tribute to ex-Brooklyn players than LA has, but nothing for HOF-er Duke Snider? No wonder I root for the San Andreas Fault. Later

    Either pitch around Goldschmidt or play deep and cut across. It wouldn't hurt if they could find a pair of jet powered roller skates for De Aza. Later
  19. MFS62
    What about another old time strategy - "take two and hit to right"? Later
  20. MFS62
    Pitch around Goldschmidt. Or use the old remedy against a hot hitter (as per Jim Brosnan's book The Long Season), "hit him in the knee, then pick him off first base". Later

    RIP, Choo Choo. You were the best low ball catcher of your day. Later
  23. MFS62
    Pitch around Goldschmidt! Dammit! Later
  24. MFS62
    That song should be at the end of every thread when the Mets win, after the pictures of books and before the Schaefer voting. Later
