Methead

April 1, 2026: St. Lucie Mets released Zebulon Vermillion. Thus concludes the saga of the prospect I adopted based on his name alone. I had high hopes after he threw just three pitches to get through one perfect inning in 2022, but shortly thereafter he was struck down by a meteor and was unable to get back on the field after several grueling surgeries and rehab stints. I assume.

HOLY **** November 6, 2025 : St. Lucie Mets activated RHP Zebulon Vermillion from the 60-day injured list.

You may be thinking of Jermaine Dye.

AAAAAAUGH

BOOM

This team kinda pisses me off

It's gonna be Salt Potatoes

Mullins goes 6-6 with 4 homers tonight. Maybe 5.

I gave Mauricio half a point that was meant for Baty. At some point I'll award Baty half a point he didn't earn (and deduct Mauricio accordingly) so I can bring the Schaefer universe back into balance.

Looks to me like he's ready to get on a mound.

Scroll 90% of the way down this article and you'll find some actual info about what's going on with this guy: https://www.amazinavenue.com/2025/2/5/24357590/mets-top-prospects-2025-other-players-of-note-new-york Evidently he had Tommy John surgery following his one professional appearance in August of 2022... so let's say he tried to rehab it, underwent the procedure at some point in the spring / summer of 2023, I could see how someone might miss all of 2024. So... barring a setback you'd think he'd be throwing something somewhere by now. Can I get a pic of this guy skipping a rock on a lake in the Ozarks? Anything?

I remember watching a game he had started, it must have been his rookie year. He was working on a no-hitter and he was into the 8th or 9th inning maybe. Pretty sure it was a scoreless tie, but he gave up a solo homer to lose the no-hitter and the shutout all at once. Looked like he was gonna cry. edit: OK, it was the 7th inning and the Mets had a 2-0 lead and he gave up a 3-run homer but whatever, this is the game https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SDN/SDN199908160.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SDN/SDN199908160.shtml

Can't get more common than Joe Smith.
