  1. I didnt even know what position Drury played until I read today's lineup.
  2. =bmfc1 post_id=72809 time=1627526299 user_id=73] I've watched the throw, the tag, the call at least 10 times already. Incredible.
  3. Gary Cohen follows Typewriter Chewing Gum: [FIMG=333]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51342076461_83b96f8f37_z.jpg[/FIMG] [FIMG=333]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51342305063_e2e19d01eb_z.jpg[/FIMG]
  4. The Mets have seven players currently on the 60 day-IL. That's a lot, right? This could be a quiz if I was in the mood to emcee it, which I'm not. But name the seven anyways, if youse wanna. _______ Meanwhile, I was surfing for new news on deGrom which I couldn't find. I still think that the Mets aren't being as forthright as they could be about this situation, which is what I thought at the beginning, when I first heard that deGrom's start was being pushed back just one day so that he could face more division rivals. Yeah, right. The other day, Rojas said that deGrom threw off the mound and felt good. But when Rojas was asked how many pitches deGrom threw in that session, Rojas said that "he didn't know". Yeah, right, again. I'm hunching that deGrom won't be back until around Labor Day, at the earliest. I hope I'm overshooting deGrom's return.
  5. Least games to 100 home runs: Ryan Howard - 325 games. Pete Alonso - 91 home runs/307 games played. Really falling off the record pace. Not much room for error. Nine homers in 18 games is an 81 HR pace for the season.
  6. Today. He's good. I think he was playing hurt and tried to play through it, unsuccessfully. He had an awful stretch just before he was IL'ed. After he was re-activated, his hitting picked up significantly. Best power hitter on the planet.

  8. =batmagadanleadoff post_id=72482 time=1627164992 user_id=68] Sounds like deGrom's 2021 bid for another Cy Young award is about over.
  9. So speaking about injuries and the IL, is deGrom pitching tomorrow or what? As if there's anything else Mets more important to be talking about. Guess not. This was posted about an hour ago. Manager Luis Rojas said Saturday it's unclear when deGrom (forearm) will begin throwing bullpens, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. The righty has been playing catch and receiving treatment for his sore forearm, but he doesn't appear particularly close to continuing his throwing progression. Additional information about deGrom and when he might return from the injured list should become available in the next week or so. At this rate, his absence may be long enough that a rehab.assignment will be necessary. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/mets-jacob-degrom-no-timetable-for-return-to-mound/https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/baseball/news/mets-jacob-degrom-no-timetable-for-return-to-mound/ Sounds like deGrom's 2021 bid for another Cy Young award is about over. If it now sounds like deGrom's about a week or so away from pitching in a game again, plus, maybe, a rehab assignment, then figure about three weeks to a month.

  15. Willets Point wrote: =Centerfield post_id=72456 time=1627145676 user_id=65] I kinda like Bryce Harper? I know he comes across as a douchebag, but if you judge him by his actions he's a pretty decent guy. And FFF is a terrific guy as well as an amazing player. I hate that he kills us but I respect the hell out of him. I forgot about Trevor Bauer. That guy is such a scumbag I don't even consider him in the regular “hated rivals” context. I lump him with self admitted pedophile Pete Rose in the “just fuck off” category. I agree with all of the above. I also kind of like Aaron Judge whose quality as a player as dropped off enough that I can't even hate him for being good.

  23. If I had a tasty bowl of chili that was to my liking as a starter or foundation, I could make a pretty good version of Skyline chili. The diced onions and shredded cheese are common additions to a bowl of chili. The spaghetti is what makes that dish different, but spaghetti noodles are pretty bland or neutral by themselves, and shouldn't otherwise ruin the rest of that dish. Anyways, I just described 4-way, I guess. What's the 5th way ingredient- kidney beans?
  24. I still have all ot my "swag". Maybe I'll dig it out and take a pic or two of some of it. I re-checked: I was in the 4th and 5th grades when I did this.

Pennant winners win that game Yeah but that's chicken or the egg, isn't it? Do teams win those games because they're pennant winners or are they pennant winners because they've won games like tonight's?
