A Boy Named Seo

Ha. Still a fool hippie. Just a better bike than currently>>>

"They're letting Steve Avery walk?!? I'd take HIM!!" -Me, '96

His 26 homers and 124 RBI look great if they were from 1 season and not 3.

You shoulda worn a '92 Kristi Yamaguchi throwback dress instead of that Sox hoodie... ...sez the dude who owns a Dodgers jersey.

And he plays for the Mets, too. Hot damn. Back row, 2nd dude on the left.

Been hitting the cages like a crazed man the last coupla months, trying to get back in 'game shape' to join an over 35 league in LA. Was checking out this league and saw the Sunday National MVP was a bro named Glendon Rusch. Was told there's a fair few ex-pros bouncing around. Gotta be, no?

That 2/13 is, I guess, what's left after the Marlins pay their freight. Agreed on Young, but wouldn't have minded that gamble either. If he repeats his 2k12, you buy that option out & he's but a memory.

Head-scratcher. I wouldn't want the 2 yrs + $13 mils left on Bell's contract without giving up Young. Score A's (and Marlins).

Gracias.

Jumping in here without reading up first, but if yall need an extra next year, I'm game.

Spirited. These boys should have a pitcher behind them going for #20 every game.

Score for you guys. Saw this before it got yanked, but didn't pull the trigger. Down to 69$ now on Amazon, but knowing what I know, I find that price on the steep side. #cheapass

We'll be at that one too, trying to make up for a rained-out run-the-bases outing 2 years ago. Seo-y, will be in touch about getting out there when you're there. Sounds good. We'll be in your hood at least one day to explore and catch a show.

I'm closing my eyes as the bullpen comes in. Terry criticism- if you're going to pull a guy after he gets an easy groundball out and then a grounder for a single, you should have hit for him in the top of the 8th. He didn't hook him right away. He went to the mound and they talked it over for a bit. Have a feeling RAD didn't tell TC what he wanted to hear.

Thank God, 4 games against the Padres. Don't get me wrong, the Mets are hanging in there. 2 out of 3 in Pittsburgh was nice (and needed after looking mostly crappy in Toronto), but they're 6-7 in the last couple weeks, and you have to go back to the beginning part of the month and the sweep in Philly to really remember them sort of kicking ass. Queue the effing Friars (new, all-blue, boring 2k12 'Swinging Friar' logo below). They enter with second worst record in the NL (16-29), the worst road record in the bigs (4-13), and are one of only 3 NL teams that have been outscored by a greater margin (-43) than our somehow still over .500 Mets (-29). And they limp into Shady Field having just had their asses swept away by the Cards three straight in St. Louie. This is a wounded and wobbling and bloodied opponent that needs to be kicked on a little more, and a little harder. The Lineup Bad as their road record is, a few of these dudes (Venable and Headley, espesh) hit the ball decently away from big-ass Petco Park. Will Venable - LF 6'2", bats L, throws L, toolsy bro. Overall: .269/.338/.425 Road: .380/.436/.640 --- Cameron Maybin - CF 6'3" bats R, throws R, handsome, slender, fast, lots of talent, off to a shitty start Overall: .212/.309/.301 Road: .180/.227/.213 (.440!) --- Yonder Alonso - 1B 6'2" bats L, throws R, Cuban bro, tantalizing skills suppressed in part by the big home park Overall: .300/.384/.413 Road: .304/.361/.411 --- Jesus Guzman - LF 5'10" bats R, throws R, I don't know shit about this guy Overall: .252/.331/.348 Road: .271/.357/.375 --- Chase Headley - 3B 6'2" bats S, throws R, love it when Keith says, "Headleeeeeeey" Overall: .245/.366/.413 Road: .255/.364/.527 --- Nick Hundley - C 6'1" bats R, throws R, still not related to Todd Overall: .171/.234/.268 Road: .289/.333/.422 --- Alexi Amarista - 2B 5'8" bats L, throws R, names sounds like a delicious coffee liqueur Overall: .174/.208/.261 Road: 0 for 9 so far --- Andy Parrino - SS 6'0" bats S, throws R, the pride of Brockport, NY and 3rd dude in a row batting under .200 Overall: .171/.276/.250 Road: .154/.267/.205 Bitch looks cocky, huh? Pitching Matchups: Today, 7:10PM Eric Stultz (L) v. Jeremy Hefner Hefner is apparently ours, I just learned something. Stultz was just claimed by the White Sox and pitched alright against the punchless Angels last start. I remember him from the Dodgers a while back. He's won't strike out many and will walk about 1 for every guy he does K, so I feel like we should have lots of bros on base all day. Fearless prediction: Mets 7 - Padres 5 --- Friday, 7:10PM Anthony Bass ® v. Dillon Gee Bass seems a decent prospect and has gotten off to a good start, ERA under 3 and 51 K's in 53 innings. PitchFx tells me his average FB speed is 91.6, so he's not JR Richard or anything, but he doesn't walk a ton of dudes or give up lots of homers. Fan-graphy stats FIP (3.28), xFIP (3.20), and BAPIP (.273) seem to mostly support his thus-far goodliness. Despite shaving that stupid merkin off his face, I'm still sour on Gee. Fearless prediction: Padres 5 - Mets 3 :'-( --- Saturday, 1:10PM Clayton Richard (L) v. Johan Looks like a Clayton, this guy: 2 straight good starts (both 7 IP, 2 ER), but still pedestrian in every way and I feel like we're going to effing crush him & back Johan's play for a change. Mets 8 - Padres 2 --- Sunday, 1:10PM Edinson Volquez ® v. RAD Volquez is having a year on-par (or maybe a little better) than his career norms in Cincy, but ultimately likes to wear do-rags under his cap, which will be his downfall. Mets again: 6-2 And the Mets are a hot baseball team again, just like that. Bullpen: They have one, and there are guys that pitch out of it. Pretty sure. Bench: Samesies. Fashion Forecast: Not sure if there's anything cool planned for the weekend, but if so we might could see the Pads wearing some brown & mustard and sporting something dope like this: Otherwise we'll see them in this safe, boring shit: ... but will be spared the camo uni's, which are just worn at home. Nice gesture, pretty gross execution. Anything to add, please add. A Boy Named Seo OUT.

I'll slam one out here right quick.

I think that bum Pujols might be one.

I guess I could look it up if I was motivated.) I know that it's a play on words on Deuteronomy, and while I have no idea who or what Deuteronomy was, unless he was some kind of a god (unlikely in a monotheist religion) I can't see how playing with his (or her, or its) name is blasphemous. I shoulda hyperlinked or capitalized or italicized. I was failing at making a pun.

This is blas(minor)phemous.

Thanks, Ceets. Alyssa I just aren't meant to be.

Thanks, boys. Good info. Staring at some prom infield 514, row 4's that I might pull the trigger on. The box equiv is 404, row 4 and those look alright, too. Not planning on being a #bigballer beyond that price range, I don't think. Will share if things fall into place & I end up booking something.

Hey yall - Prominade Gold versus Promenade Box/Infield/Reserved? Worth the extra $20? Thinking about a #summervacay #hotticket
