The results of this thing are always surprising, but my guess is that the winning cover will be either this David Wright cover, or one of the covers featuring deGrom or Flores. Or maybe that Rusty Staub cover... Don't count out the Wilmer cover. He's gonna get sympathy votes.
  2. I recall a comment that Puig looks up to Cespedes. If Yo was around, then it would be a good fit.
  3. I'll take the generic Newsday cover over Peterson's ass.
  4. A stacked region. Two bad choices in 2.0.1 and 2 great ones here.
  5. I dislike both of these. I went with the lineup entry because I dislike it less.
  6. It was very sneaky of Wilmer Flores to get non-tendered in order to get sympathy votes and win the TCD.
  7. Live on Facebook via the SNY feed.
  8. Your favorite team is better right now! For the moment, don't worry about a 19-year-old who is years away and a pitcher who is projected for the backend of the rotation or middle-relief. The Mets are getting a solid arm for the pen and a great hitter for the infield.
  9. Gomes is good so this isn't good.
  10. The State of Florida should hire BG to count votes.
  11. Thinking positively: The Mets will be better in 2019 and 2020 with Cano and Diaz. You can argue about how much better but they are better. I'm upset about the 3 young players but they weren't helping short-term (Bautista perhaps but he was erratic last year). Also, they are better without Swarzak and Bruce. Bruce's departure means more playing time for Nimmo and Conforto, and it removes an impediment for Alonso and Smith. However, I hope that this ends any discussion of trading Noah (because they are in win-now mode) and it should be an interim move as they still need a right-handed bat.
  12. Welcome to the better side of New York! [tweet:3knypakc]https://twitter.com/yaschwa30/status/1068480306053705730[/tweet:3knypakc]

  14. They can't get married until 30 days after the season starts to ensure an extra year of service. (I need to work on that joke.) Tell her to spell "San Francisco" right. Hopefully, New York will be #1 on her favorite place list very soon. http://withlovehaley.com/2018/07/13/top-10-favorite-places-cities-in-the-us/
  15. It's gonna get Chili at Citi Field this Spring! [tweet:lyo5f0of] [/tweet:lyo5f0of]
  16. We should resolve this by having the lone "Heel" voter make a new choice.
  17. FYI: the thread title was a callback to this very old commercial but there's also this song:

  19. Benjamin Grimm wrote: Mike Puma wrote: the veteran lefty owns a career 1.85 ERA at Citi Field Yeah but he's facing the Mets.
  20. The Cespedes voters split their vote giving an opening to a tacky composite photo rather than two untouched photos of a fallen warrior in action.
  21. Martino: Per major league sources, here are the basic parameters of what the teams are discussing: Cano would go to the Mets, and Seattle would pay approximately $10 million annually of the $120 million owed to Cano over the next five years. That would take Cano's annual salary down to about $14 million. The Mets are also trying to get Seattle to take on a burdensome contract like Jay Bruce's, and obtain a player like Edwin Diaz or Mitch Haniger. https://www.sny.tv/mets/news/sources-with-teams-discussing-parameters-heres-how-a-metsmariners-robinson-cano-trade-would-look/301154492
  22. #2 -- Keep Jeffy away from female employees.
  23. A few articles today say that the Mets are being "aggressive" on Robinson Cano talks. SEA is selling and BVW might be buying.

  25. One makes wine, the other drinks a nice cab after signing a minor league free agent.
