Megdal didn't blame the slump on the Wilpons' financial situation? You know, if they had spent more money to surround him with better players, he wouldn't have had that slump? Amazing. Later

Don't take your kids! They will be kidnapped and held until you sign up for at least one box for this year and next. Later

What I liked best about Cashen was his approach and commitment to organizational development. When he came here, I read stories that said he wanted to have a consistent method of developing minor leaguers so they would be ready when called to a higher level. So he first tried to have the dimensions of all the minor league parks identical as possible to Shea. Then he instituted a playbook, which was used at all levels of the organization so players wouldn't have to learn a new/ different way of doing things as they progressed up through the organization. It included defensive positioning and infield situational movement on bunts and where to position the relay man on throws from the outfield. It was similar (if not identical) to the playbook he had developed and used successfully while at Baltimore. RIP, Frank. Later

We were denied watching them break a team record for the most hits without scoring a run. The record of 10 (IIRC) is still on the books. Later

Maybe I should have said I'd change my name to pitch against the Mets. It worked yesterday. OK, Ike. That's for you. C'mon Zippity. Get 'em back. And more. Later

Hey, if this reverse jinx works, I'll offer to change my name to every opponent's starter's name, too. Later

Gerrit Cole is greedily anticipating pitching to that lineup. As is Gary Cole http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Cole and every person in the world named Cole (first or last). In fact, I'm thinking of changing my name to Cole so I could pitch to that lineup, too. Later

Doesn't the major league team read the reports submitted my their minor league managers? Don't they read the stats? Over the years, I've followed the box scores of my kid, Lagares, and he has hit about 50 points HIGHER when batting in the top half of the order. Climbing down, now. But do you really think that there's a cause and effect thing with lineup position? No link, based on reading the boxes. I think when he is up in the order, he realizes his role is to get on base and he concentrates on being selective. When batting lower, he tries to hit for power more, with OBP a secondary consideration. As I said, just an observation, but I exchanged some notes last year with the minor league maven from Mets Inside Pitch and he supported what I had suspected from what he had observed in games. Again, observation only. Later

The rally caps in the dugout started in 1986. If this results in winning a World Series, I'm all for it. Just please, no monkeys. Later
