  1. Stearns went to Japan to scout Munetaka Murakami. Murakami plays 1B. Stearns chose not to sign him. The Mets have had 4 different 1B this year and have hit a total of 19 HRs. Murakami has 11.
  2. This is the most the Dodgers have screwed over New York since 1957.
  3. Fangraphs on Murakami:
  4. I still feel this same way.
  5. If necessary, I recommend signing up for Mets Fix on Substack. It costs $, but you get a great newsletter every morning (with information, not just clips and reposts), and it has a companion chat where we can continue this dialogue.
  6. The Mets hired their former manager’s son… but why is ATL a better job for Richardson than the Mets (unless he has a connection to Walt Weiss or ATL)?
  7. Where's Keith?
  8. I thought the same thing. At least add three dots after "Will".
  9. 2 trips to the West Coast in April, one in May, and one in June but (as stated above), that's it for late night games.
  10. Thank you for listening and the good wishes!
  11. gwreck: I wasn't being nostalgic: I was saying that he's a hypocrite because inter-league play requires more travel and if he wanted less travel, he's go back to an unbalanced schedule. He won't do that, of course, so Ohtani can be seen in "your town" at least once every two years. As FK said, this is for the owners, not the players. It's a misdirect.
  12. Manfred was full of it when he said that he wanted to cut down on travel to protect the players, because if that was important, there wouldn't be inter-league play and the schedule would have more games in your division. When we were a lot younger, the Mets played 18 games vs. the East, 12 vs. the West, and made 2 WC trips. We now have a "balanced" schedule with 4 West Coast-ish trips, including the occasional one-game trip (the Mets had to travel to St. Louis last year for a makeup game and had a one-game trip this past Sunday night). So don't make this sound as if it's being done for the players--it's being done to make rich people more money.
  13. It could lead to a division with Mets, NYY, PHI, and BOS. "Think of the rivalries!" Manfred will say. Do you want to play the Yankees more than 6 times? I don't even want to play them 6 times. Plus, there will likely be numerous "Wild Cards" so the Mets would be competing against teams in divisions with low budgets and/or expansion teams for the same Wild Card spots.
  14. Bad news, especially with Taylor not hitting. Perhaps: McNeil goes to LF and Nimmo to CF.
  15. 1. What will the Mets' record be? 92-70 2. Predict the NL East standings from 1 to 5: Mets, PHI, ATL, WSH, MIA 3. Will the Mets make the playoffs (if so, as the division champ or 1st, 2nd, or 3rd WC)? Yes, division champ 4. If so, how far will they go? NLCS, lose to LAD in 6 (again) 5. Who will be the World Champion? LAD 6. Number of regular season HRs for Pete Alonso: 38 7. Who will be on the cover of the 2025 winner of the Tabloid Cover Derby? Lindor.
