Better than I thought it would be. Not as good as The Train, though. Wifey likes Cate Blanchet, but her comment was "George Clooney is starting to look old". Later

If the uniforms they wear are able to predict the team(s) that reach the World Series, I'd prefer they keep wearing the ones that say "Mets". LAter

Didn't realize Russell Martin was that young. Seems like he's been around forever. That said, I don't think any moves are necessary at that position. Later

Not sure its a one year thing. Offense has declined the past few years (since they blew the whistle on the 'Roids). Anyhow, it will be interesting to see how park factor tracks to winning percentage and something to keep an eye on to see if this year wasn't the outlier. But, you're right, one year can't be called a trend. Later.

Someone on the radio this week (Joe and Evan show on WFAN?) said that 7 of the 8 best teams played in the more pitcher friendly parks. But I'd like to see if the final 2014 Park Factor numbers back this up. Later

Mets � Willets Point wrote: The headline writer for MLB.com seems to be one of those people who works too hard to come up with clever nicknames. At least I'm hoping no one else uses "MadBum" and "Waino." It must be a San Francisco writer. (According to Jim Brosnan in "the Long Season") In 1968 (the team's first year in that city) pitcher Johnny Antonelli (or was it Mike McCormick?) said "The San Francisco reporters write with all the precision of a two year old finger painting on a wall".

Hiding behind the chainsaws is not a good decision. Later

"Who's Ron Gaspar?"* Later * Frank Robinson even got the first name wrong of one of the "nobodies" who would kick the Orioles' asses.

"Strangers come and cut your heart out": Injuries in 2015
MFS62 replied to Edgy MD's topic in New York Mets Talk
Isn't that like going to the mechanic who didn't completely fix your car the first time you took it to him? Later -
I really can't bring myself to root for an AL club. But if the O's don't win, somebody will have to talk Buck down from the window ledge. So I'll hold my nose and go for them. Later

Who Am I? & The Dedication & Re-creation of Butterball Field
MFS62 replied to batmagadanleadoff's topic in New York Mets Talk
Yes Zvon, I used to draw, but not well. No mention of the Jets playing at Shea? Howz about a Super Bowl III Championship banner hanging from one of the flagpoles? Or showing where the movable seats were positioned for football? Later -

Harper's a jerk. But he's the kind of jerk I could root for in this series. Later

That "post season" hitting streak of Hank Bauer was accomplished only in World Series games. That is lost on many of the current sportscasters who like to use stats like that. For a Mets tie-in, Bauer was a teammate of original Met Gene Woodling. Later

Ceetar wrote: We're a heartbeat from an all-California series. As if they need more reason to be insufferable. Do what I do when those teams meet, root for the meteor strike. Later statistically speaking you probably want to root for the earthquake. The meteor could hit the field with minimal collateral damage. But if you're going after the "insufferable" fans as well, rooting for the San Andreas Fault is ok. Later

Zvon, it was that book that had me drawing baseball stadia for a long while. If you're going to add the broadcast booth, don't forget to make space in it for Lindsay Nelson next to those other two guys. Later -

Before the post game interviews start, I'm gonna' bet a whole bunch of CPF-bucks that none of the Tigers will say, "If we had Derek Jeter, we would have won". But all bets are off as to whether or not one of the reporters will ask it. Later
