Maybe if you hadn't given up so many screaming line drives, the defense wouldn't have had so many hot shots to handle. Later

    You looked at the stuff. You looked at the radar gun. Then you looked at the conversion rate of about 2/3 of his save opportunities. (OE: 60.7 %) It was baffling. Still is. Later

    If you net play and want to get pics of the players, here's the site. http://www.stratfanforum.com/sffipb/topic/49737-2015-photo-set-portraits/ Not sure if you have to buy the game to gain access, but I didn't. So I couldn't get past the logon screen. Maybe there would be some useful pics that someone here could use for baseball cards and stuff. OE, I found out that the images only show up when you are playing the on-line game. They're not stand alone pics. But maybe someone who is tech savvy can find a way to get/use them. Later

    Holy oxymoronic, Batman! That's like the officer telling his troops to maintain "detached contact" with the wagon train in the movie comedy Hallelujah Trail. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059250/ When one trooper asks what that means, the officer answers, "I don't know. Its in the manual". I saw the movie while it was in the Army, and that line has stuck with me ever since. This idea seems just as dumb, as exemplified by the situation FK mentioned above. Later

    Didn't see this posted anywhere else on the CPF, but so does DeGrom: http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/mets/post/_/id/114237/jacob-degrom-open-to-long-term-extension-with-mets Lock 'em both up, I say, and Noah and Matz, too. Its only money. Later

    I felt a few of the scenes in the snow were redundant. We get it, it was cold. But that doesn't take much away from the fact that it was a very good film. I gave it 4 1/2 stars. The subtitles during the Native American dialogue were clear in English. And by that I also mean readable. Sometimes, they are done poorly - there is no contrast between the words and the background scenery. But these were done well. Leonardo deserves his Oscar. Later

    There's another De Aza in the organization - a 19 year old infielder, Yeffry De Aza. http://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.cgi?id=deaza-000yef Who woulda' thunk it? Later

    The "how to play ... " books I remember being famous were the Spaulding Books: http://rarebooks.library.nd.edu/collections/sports/baseball/ Side note: I once spoke to fan-insulter Pete Franklin about how Bill Mazeroski deserved to be in the Hall Of Fame because he was the greatest player ever to field his position. I said that if the Spaulding Guide on how to play second base were written today, it would have used Maz as a model. He said "You may be right", which for him was a loud and rare compliment. Later

    This thread has now been pointed toward something that must be handled delicately. Later

    It wasn't long ago that the Mets looked at Atlanta and thought they were an organization to be emulated. Now, the worm might just be turning. Later

    Maybe not the goofiest looking guy ever to play for the Mets, but certainly in the group photo. That's all I remember about him. Later

    The glue that at times held the staff together. He was a starter, middle man, setup man and closer. He did what Terry asked and, for the most part, performed well in each role until I think arm fatigue got to him last year. Good guy. Hard worker. I wish him well when he won't be pitching against the Mets. Later

    Good find. He never followed up on my question about players asking Kiner for batting tips. Now I'm pissed. Later

Who am I kidding, right? It's going to be O'Flaherty. You're right. I'm guessing that after last season, O'Flaherty's agent couldn't sell him to a transplant hospital for his body parts. Later
