    I got the impression all year that his personality didn't really jibe with being in NYC. On the mound, he was mostly good. But his bad stints were slogs.

    This has been a pretty amazing offseason. Very excited!

    =Marshmallowmilkshake post_id=114396 time=1670596304 user_id=119] Would Ottovino be too expensive at this point?

    =kcmets post_id=113909 time=1670259153 user_id=53] I'd be shocked if Verlander isn't a Met in the next 24 hours or so....

    I love that you would only take him to Austin! What an apt description of how I also feel about McCann.

    I'm too young to have rooted for Tom. I remember Doc but not enough to appreciate his stuff at the time. Every time I watched deGrom, I was aware of his greatness.
  7. TransMonk
    He is the best pitcher I have ever rooted for.

    I concur with Lorcan. It eclipsed Breaking Bad for me as the GOAT during it's final season.

    Any reason for waiting so long to perform the surgery? Seems like they could have done it a few weeks ago and gotten the jump on the recovery period.

    Especially since Cabrera has a pretty iconic Mets bat flip of his own. https://sportshub.cbsistatic.com/i/2016/09/23/b9aa2f38-f2ab-4357-9c68-ad04ca7c7852/asdrubalbatflip092216.gif>

    As he should be. Congrats to Buck!

    This means he's likely to become the longest tenured closer in Mets history.

    5 years seems long to me.

It really is absurd that a third-place team, one that finished 14 games out of first place, is in the World Series.

    Easy. The Stros. Philly fans are almost as obnoxious as Yankee fans.

    I however, will not be. Give me the Pods.

    I saw an analogy online that fits my current mood: the 2022 Mets' season was like the full series of Game of Thrones. Exciting and well executed right until the very end, which sucked and seemed unworthy of being attached to the rest of the whole.
  22. TransMonk
    I get the impression from Bassitt's recent interviews that he may not really like NY.

    I don't understand why some humans find it so hard to hold two truths in their head at the same time. It is perfectly acceptable (I would argue logical) to be both proud and disappointed in the 2022 Mets. At the end of any sports season, I take stock of performance vs. my expectations. Back in March, I was bearish on this team not knowing what to expect from the newcomers, McNeil coming off a pretty miserable 2021, deGrom not guaranteed to come back at all. I would have signed up for 100 wins in a heartbeat...still knowing that nothing is guaranteed in October. I wish they would have looked better over the past ten days...most of all because their play over than span was not indicative of the six months of play that came before it. Yes, winning championships is the "goal", but this was the best Mets regular season in 25+ years. I'm glad I got to experience the summer team even if the fall ended early.

    I've been watching the past two innings in silence because listening to Karl Ravech is insult to injury.

    WTF? If he's hurt, he shouldn't have started.
