  1. I know too many nice Canadian (that's redundant) friends and one virulent anti-Mets Seattle acquaintance to root for any team in this other than the Jays. Later
  2. 9-3 Seattle still batting with the bases loaded in the 8th. Later
  3. The M's, riding the back of two 3 run homers, lead the Jays 6-3 after 5. Later
  4. Going in with a pitcher whose ERA for the season was close to 6 and, on top of it, I think on short rest -- not too mention a tired Mariners bullpen etc. -- I assumed a Jays victory and that it'd be a long-term victory for Seattle if Miller could just eat up a bunch of innings so they could start competing. Guess not. Later
  5. And the Brew Crew moves on 3-1. Brats and beer for everyone! Later
  6. Reminds me of the book "The Long Season". In the late 1950s all Latin American players were known as, "First ball hitters, fast ball hitters". And the pitchers pitched them accordingly. Later
  7. That reminds me. You sent me Paul Schaffer's phone number when I asked you for the number for backpack girl. It was very embarrassing. Later
  8. =Fman99 post_id=206716 time=1760090576 user_id=86] The Phillies literally throwing their season away is pretty great. Time to root against the Dodgers now.
  9. 6-0 Cubs is your final. And back to Milwaukee they go. Later
  10. Good hitter OBS+ 121 Two time All Star and one second place MVP finish. RIP Later
  11. Quite right. I will correct. Did Edgy ask me a question? I missed that. I think it was in one of the political threads a while ago. Later
  12. Phills up 1-0 in the 7th of game 5. Later
  13. The Hot Corner wrote: As they say, "Misery loves company." Glad to see the Blue Jays put an end to the Yankees season. I am pulling for a Milwaukee vs. Toronto World Series. I am pulling for the Blue Jays the rest of the way, since they knocked the Yankees out. Besides, I believe that a Canadian team having the audacity to win the World Series will likely piss off Trump.* *Of course, I don't know if the imperial orange even cares about a cerebral sport like baseball or can even spell it for that matter. Wait until he finds out that they will play the Canadian National Anthem. His head will explode. Later
  14. I will have extra pep in my step today. It felt great to see the MFYs rising young star pitcher Schlittler the bed. Later
  15. Sorry, he wasn't on CF's list. He got 7.88 , better than many of the others on that list. Later
  16. Now 4-3 Cubs in the 7th. Later
  17. And 9-3 is your final. Series tied 2-2. Later
  18. Me, too. I'd have to flip a coin on that one. Later
  19. So, let's see who WAS the 2025 dark horse Met, using the only official international standard Metly measure, 2025 Schaefer points: 1. MMM: Griffin Canning 22.89 2. irish: Justin Hagenman 6.03 3. BG: Jared Young 5.81 4. MFS62: Huascar Brazoban 27.26 5. Gwreck: Luke Ritter wait till next year 6. doctee: Paul Blackburn 3.98 7. Fman: George Harrison Imagine 8. mm: Jonathan Frickin' Pintaro 0.00 9. JCL: Kevin "Night Train" Herget 3.28 10. KC: NONE sorry, no cigar 11. Gwreck: AJ Minter 5.58 As I said earlier in the thread, please spell my name correctly on the check. Later
  20. Thanks, Kase. I should have recognized that. Funny that he used 32, because at ages 32 -34, Ted Williams was in military service. But when he returned: age 35 .345/.513/.635 age 36 .356/.496/.703 age 37 .345/.479/.605 and at ages 39 AND 39 he led the league in batting. I'm not saying Alonso will do the same. But every player is different. And CF gave examples of other older players who were productive in his post. Later
  21. What are those numbers? Because if that's the average OPS after they turned 32 , that ain't bad. Later
  22. We salute the winners and will fly the flag at half mast while we enjoy our final Schaefer. Thank you for allowing us to participate in this annual fun. Later
  23. That's not what I meant. Certainly not an organizational philosophy, but an occasional approach based on the GM. George Weiss certainly did. And I think Stearns does it, too. Conversely, Frank Cashen meticulously built a minor league organization(down to procedure manuals describing what a player does in a situation for all levels of the organization) to provide a pipeline of talent. He acquired players based on ability and potential (e.g.- Hojo) rather than big names. Looking back, the only "Big name" he acquired was Keith. And he shed Kingman and Foster. Later
  24. For a second I had panic attack. I thought you meant Chris Suero -my 21 year old "Swiss Army Knife*" homey** who played at several minor league levels for the Mets this year. He's a keeper, and rising on the prospect lists. Later *= catcher, outfield and pitcher **= from Da' Bronx
