I feel like a lot of our success will depend on how these three bounce back. If 2 of the 3 are good, should be in decent shape. If all 3 are bad, we’re likely going to struggle. So far only Senga has been good. The other two have struggled. And Senga is, unfortunately, the most fragile of the three. I think Peterson will find it. I fear Manaea is kinda shot.

McLean gets the ball tonight. Nervous

What if I keep asking? How about now?

BG. It the TCD coming back?

There's a tab on this site that links to blogs from members. I know a guy with a pretty good blog.

What a weird rooting experience for me. I was all out Soto over Judge during this game. But on Tuesday I’ll be rooting for McLean and USA 100%. Anyway. Glad Soto made it through the tournament healthy.

Omg. Even worse call. How do you end it like that.

Bullshit call.

Soto up. Down 2-1 in the 8th. Last chance to do something special.

Dammit. Soto 6-6-3

Brazoban cleans up the 5th. 2-1 US. Bottom 5

Skenes is so nasty. I don’t know how anyone hits him.

It’s better today than yesterday. I think that’s promising

That’s ridiculous. He’ll likely finish third.

Doesn’t seem like Toronto sent the A squad today.

RBI single for Lindor. This time kept his hand on the bat.

Also. @Brock Beauchamp I started an IGT in the non baseball forum. The Mets forum wasn’t showing up for me.

Alvy double. Looking good.

I think 14, 24 and 37 are so woefully undeserving it strips the honor of any meaning.

This is going to take some getting used to. But appreciate the effort everyone has made. And ceetar is back. That’s great.

How about Matt Lawton.

Made it here!

So the link to the CPF will automatically take us to the new forum?

I think I'm closer to FK than what the Mets have done. And although I agree that "HOF with Mets Hat" is too strict, it's closer than whatever they're doing now. I think it has to be something along the lines of: 1. Elite performance for a significant portion of time. 2. Long tenure as a Met 3. Must be associated with the Mets more than any other team (at the very least, can't be more associated with another club than the Mets) So going through the retired numbers: 1. Casey Stengel. #37. No. I mean, why are we retiring a manager's number. This is dumb. 2. Gil Hodges. #14. No. See above. 3. Tom Seaver. #41. Yes. Duh. 4. Jackie Robinson. #42. Find another way to honor him. Making all clubs retire his number is dumb. And seems forced. 5. Mike Piazza. #31. Yes. It's a close call on criteria 3. The Dodgers are close, but I say he's more Met than Dodger. 6. Jerry Koosman. #36. No. I never saw him play, but I don't think you can really say he was elite, and not for a significant portion of the time. 7. Keith Hernandez. #17. No. Spent more years with the Cardinals, won his MVP with the Cardinals, better overall numbers with the Cardinals. I mean, we love him. But as a player, he's more St. Louis than NY. 8. Willie Mays. #24. I mean, come on. 9. Dwight Gooden. #16. Yes. He didn't stay elite as long as we would have liked, but has earned it. 10. Darryl Strawberry. #18. Yes. 11. David Wright. #5. Yes. My wall: 41 31 16 18 5 15 Including 24 basically makes this honor meaningless.

A guy tells me that Kris Bryant was active in 2025, and my first instinct is to think I'm talking to a crazy person and to come up with a way to excuse myself. And you wonder why the committee is so mean to you.
