  1. Jose Butto will finally be unleashed , to strike fear in the hearts of opposing batters. Later
  2. That's the first mention I've seen about Brandon Sproat coming to camp with the major leaguers. It will be interesting to see how he performs. Later
  3. Tommy Pham one year deal to the Pirates. Later
  4. Maybe one of the centerfielders, Taylor or Siri could pull a "Mickey Stanley" and move to shortstop if needed. Later
  5. I doubt there will be as much excitement when someone approaches 1,000 hits. Home runs are sexier. Later
  6. To me, an ace is the guy you want on the mound against the other team's top starter in a playoff game. And I think our ace in the hole (intentional double entendre) will be David Peterson. He hasn't reached his potential ceiling yet. Later
  7. August 6 Depending on your point of view, that would be either the first or second most famous bomb on that date. Later
  8. Amein. Sometimes you get what you wish for. Later
  9. Bob Alpacadaca wrote: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71a-rnJkonL._AC_SY445_.jpg> Awesome name - and hit two home runs in one inning, with one being a grand slam. His first year he played at Pocatello Idaho. As he rose through the minors and made it to the majors, my friend and continued to call him "Boccabella from Pocatella" because of thew way that sounded. Later
  10. The Alonso signing might change things with Vientos returning to third. But I think Mauricio's versatility still will keep him around long enough to make the most impact. Later
  11. In the No Sleep 'Till Brooklyn video, one of the Beastie Boys is wearing a Mets cap. Has that been noted on the CPF before? I don't want to turn this into yet another music thread, so please move it to an appropriate "Mets fans in strange places" or whatever we call that thread. Later
  12. Frayed Knot wrote: Always the 'best' expressions of contrition: "I wish it never happened". Not 'I wish I never did what I did', but "... it never happened". As if "it" was an act not completely of his doing. Good point. Yes, blaming the sin, not the sinner(himself), a common method of transference. Later
  13. An update on everyone's "favorite" glove grabbing, idiot MFY fan from Connecticut and the hardships he's had to endure once America found out he was a twat. https://archive.ph/tlOQ8https://archive.ph/tlOQ8 (links to NYT content but end-around the paywall) Someone sent poop to an MFY fan? Isn't that like sending coals to Newcastle?* Later * = old expression. I couldn't think of anything newer.
  14. Local boy* makes good. Later * = Bronxville, NY
  15. If he's healthy, I think Mauricio is ready to step in and deliver the bat needed to be a regular (third baseman). I'm not sold on Acuna's briefly hot September after a so-so rest of 2024. He needs some more seasoning. Baty? Not after barely hitting over .250 in AAA last year. Williams will be playing center in 2026. Later
  16. Bob Uecker Later
  17. I have a feeling that anybody who wears that won't bend the brim. Later
  18. I was not aware of that quote. But something like that doesn't really bear repeating without explanation or reference. Without, it can be taken as bigoted. Later
  19. 'Splain please Later
  20. So, my headline is Boomer Bust Later
  21. On one hand he doesn't strike out, on the other hand he has little power. His highest HR total in any year (college or pro) was 4. A college radio station usually has more power. He must be a good fielder to have stayed around this long. Later
  22. I'm waiting, with shrimp on the barby. Later
  23. NY Post: "Boomer Esiason convinced Pete Alonso signing with Mets on Friday" Well, I guess that makes it official. Later
