You may guess one. The second guy will probably be tougher. What record did he break? I cant believe no Oriole ever drove in four in one game before: that would mean no Oriole ever hit a grand slam. It's too early, I'm guessing, to have set the team record for April.

There's still plenty of room for more medical institution patches bigger than your head on the Msts uni. On the front. On the back. Under the Mets wordmark. Between the buttons. And over the ass. That's just for starters. Just, please, not in Phillies red.

75 HR's. It's Pete's destiny to best whatever Aaron Judge does. Now I'm really worried. Mehhhhhhhhhhlvin!

What really worries me is that if this keeps up, Alonso's gonna have 68 HR's by the end of this season. Halavah.

If Cohen's still around, he should do the right thing and name the stadium Mets Stadium. (If he really wants to be like the Dodgers. (And the Yankees, though he's smart enough not to openly admit that part.))

FiveThirtyEight.com isn't worried. The Mets Assembled The Most Expensive Baseball Team Ever. Is That Enough To Make Them MLB's Best Team? Excerpt: All of which is to say: The Mets are not likely to remain a picture of mediocrity, although early injuries to their old and expensive pitching staff could certainly turn into a longer-term problem. At the moment, the Amazins are subject to the same noise that all of MLB's less-expensive teams face, too. In some areas, April volatility has even been good to the Mets. They were third in the league in Defensive Runs Saved through Monday's games, despite a fielding configuration that changed very little after finishing a few runs below average in 2022. Maybe the Mets have figured some things out in their efforts to turn batted balls into outs. Either way, all forms of regression to the mean should come soon enough. That will mostly be a good thing for the Mets — and the guy who spent all that cheddar trying to make them great.

Bullpen betrays deGrom but first place Rangers come back for the win, anyway. deGrom fans nine in seven innings and breaks Nolan Ryan's Ranger record for most K"s after first three appearances.

Oh my god! The Mets won 101 games last season. How then, could they lose a game to the Padres?

Frayed Knot wrote: Is Gary Cohen trying to be annoying this year Seemed annoyed with Keith right there He was definitely annoyed that Keith so easily went to the line about how increased inter-league play is something "the fans want these days". Gary immediately shot back with words to the effect of: "Which fans? What percentage? How many?" and, in doing so, got Keith to retract his statement and admit that it's really just MLB claiming this is true and we're supposed to take their word for it that there's some kind of proof backing this up and not just a continuation of Party line pr going back to Bud Selig's oft-repeated mantra that inter-league play was a "gift to the fans". Gary then went on to frame it as merely the next step in the plan to dismantle the leagues in favor of regional realignment. Baseball's been doing this since the Bud Selig era. "We took a poll and this is what the fans wanted...." And it was usually such an utter and obvious horseshit fabricated pretext. We took a poll and the fans wanted NY Presbyterian patches bigger than your head. But not so red. A man who owns half of the universe's money supply and still, you can get him to ruin the Mets uniforms for some money.

Used to be the uniforms hadda be uniform. You couldnt have the same patch on different sleeves for different players. But you could get people to do anything, anything, for money.

Cherish the moment.

Hey. Look. You could see the Mets skyline patch with Escobar having switched batting sides. A rarity!

So with Escobar now batting lefty because of the Miami pitching change, I'm shocked that he wasnt required to switch to a jersey with the Presbyterian patch on the right sleeve.

I'd say that the booth read this thread.

He wore 10 almost everywhere he played but 10 wasn't available in '72 when the Mets traded for Rusty and so he wore four instead. Rusty's the first player I think of when I think of a Mets #4. BTW, Flores' preffered # is 41, which obviously, he couldn't wear with the Mets. He couldn't reverse the order of the digits and take #14 either, so then four. But Flores wore 41 with the DBacks and now with the Giants.
