IGT 05/27 - Mets @ Buccos - Batten Down the Hatches
Methead replied to a topic in Archived Game Threads
This team is pissing me off. Lagares was a stud out there though -

So I thought Muno was just getting the day off on Sunday, but it turns out he recently signed with the Mariners, who assigned him to AAA Tacoma. Good for him.
-
Yeah, I guess nagging injuries and lack of performance were to blame at first, but I didn't realize he took several years off after that, kicking around Vegas getting wasted. It's a pretty crazy story and I'll be rooting for him from here on out.

Burroughs is old and slow but he can still hit. Everything is on the ground, but still... he's batting a cool .400 at this point after a 3/5 day today, having raised that average from .360 over the past 9 games or so. He's a DH without the pop, essentially.
-
So, unfortunately Muno didn't get to play today. But Cory Vaughn did, and displayed reliable warning-track power, driving two balls to pretty much the exact same spot out there. The Bluefish, led by former big leaguers Sean Burroughs and Alberto Callaspo, prevailed 7-6 on a bases loaded sac fly in the 9th (off of former terrible Mets pitcher Robert Carson). And, my son ran the bases and got a bunch of autographs so it turned out to be a pretty great day.

IGT 5/19/2017: ANA@NYM—Trout-Fishing in America
Methead replied to Edgy MD's topic in Archived Game Threads
Trout isn't on the team plane, he's just trampling cities as he makes his way across the country. -
Familia - Arterial Clot, surgery possible
Methead replied to Centerfield's topic in New York Mets Talk
Can't we just inject some nanobots into his bloodstream to eat the clot away, or is ownership too cheap to go that route? -
So, after a few minor league contracts over the past couple years, my boy Danny now has a full-time gig in the Atlantic League with the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs, batting .255/.438/.382 with 16K/15BB over 55AB. Former Met farmhand Cory Vaughn is on the team too but his numbers are much worse. They visit the Bridgeport Bluefish on 5/21 and I'll be at the game, should be fun.

IGT, April 27, 2017 Dickey v. Syndergaard (OE: Haarvey)
Methead replied to Edgy MD's topic in Archived Game Threads
I'm actually glad I forgot they were playing a day game. -
I may see you in Westport. Is soupcan aware this is happening?
-
Released. Goodnight, sweet prince.

Gary and Keith's pregame tribute today got me all choked up, and to be honest I didn't know who she was until a few days ago. Sounds like she was a credit to humanity and will leave a huge void in the organization.
-
Boy, was I ever in a dark place yesterday. Today is much better.

Friend of mine got tix through work. They are supposed to be so he can schmooze clients, but he took me instead. And I love him for it. I actually like to watch at home too. The bathrooms are less crowded and the beer is way cheaper. I'd feel different if I was a short subway ride away though.

Lefty, my son is 6 and your post scares the crap out of me, because 2000 doesn't really seem like all that long ago... yikes.
-
Sweet, thanks!
-
So I'm meeting my friend there, he has my ticket. I don't remember... do I need to show them a ticket when I pull into the parking lots, or is that just for the "preferred" spaces?

I have never attended a playoff game in my life, in any sport. That all changes on Sunday when I get to see Game 2 from the Pepsi Porch. I am FAR BEYOND excited for this, and if I happen to catch a Duda HR, well that's gravy.
-
This is pretty fun.

Oh, hi there! My first adoptee to make it to the majors! I have not been doing a good job at all keeping up with this guy's progress through the system, but he always seemed to show decent pop and some versatility in the field, so I'm sure he'll be of some use. And he's 26, so he's practically retired by now. If nothing else, his presence on the bench ensures the Mets won't have to play a catcher at 3B, so that's nice. I say he pinch-hits late in a game and pokes one into the seats in his first AB. Why not?
-
Muno will save us all, you guys.
-
Love it.

Never realized how much that story reminds me of Bukowski at the track.
