  1. The new manager at Las Vegas is Tony DeFrancesco. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_DeFrancesco
  2. http://www.tonykornheisershow.com/ Ronnie was the only guest on Tony Kornheiser's podcast (recorded last night).
  3. I thought that Pedro Lopez might get a shot at the Mets job but now I'm not sure if he will even have any job with the franchise.
  4. Washington, if only to talk about drugs. Hargrove is a no because he would take too long to bring out the lineup card.
  5. VOMIT: http://nypost.com/2017/10/04/what-is-it-about-clutch-yankees-shortstops/
  6. I like this Thursday opening day and can't wait to see the big free agent acquisitions in action.

Terry will have a chance to say goodbye to the players and the fans. I was wrong about the timing and wish that I wasn't. He deserved an ovation at the last game and certainly didn't deserve the anonymous negativity.
  8. Go Twins Go! It's Santana (!!!) against Severino.
  9. It looks like Lefty Specialist wins because he predicted 83-79 which was the closest to 70-92.

  11. http://www.baseballamerica.com/statistics/powerrankings/majors/ #6 but a win today and losses by ATL and SD could mess that up.

  14. https://metsinsider.mlblogs.com/mets-to-play-in-second-mlb-little-league-classic-4fd4b38cc373?sf64152570=1 So that's one Sunday night game accounted for but (IIRC) in '18 it started at 7 PM, not 8 PM, and the Phillies lose the home game, not the Mets.
  15. You can argue that he should have been playing Cecchini more and certainly over Reyes (not that Cecchini was a "stud" or even that great). I don't know if Sherman and Puma just used Carig's as a source and that was it as it's possible that the leakers gave their stories to both.
  16. The Post has it's own version. No matter why, I just wish it didn't happen. I wasn't (past tense) a big Terry fan and I'm glad his tenure is over but let the guy leave in peace with his head held high and his reputation restored. Set aside a Terry appreciation day (perhaps give out a really small bobblehead) and induct him into the Mets Hall of Fame. He got them into the WS and there was last year's playoff run so he did something right despite the bunting and overuse of the bullpen
  17. Heyman has 12 candidates https://www.fanragsports.com/heyman-12-potential-candidates-to-be-next-mets-manager/
  18. If Jeter wants to save $ and build for the future, then how about Corey Oswalt and Nimmo for Stanton?
  19. We're #3... in disappointment! https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-san-francisco-giants-baseballs-biggest-disappointment/
  20. Goodbye Dan: http://nypost.com/2017/09/27/mets-expected-to-let-dan-warthen-go-sources/
  21. http://nypost.com/2017/09/26/odds-are-high-mets-next-terry-collins-will-be-a-familiar-face/ Cora. Ventura. Long.
  22. If you're looking forward to Spring Training in 2018, the Tigers are the first team to release their home schedule. http://www.springtrainingconnection.com/lakeland.html#schedule We see that the games start as early as they did last year but this year is likely because of the earlier Opening Day (last year was because of the WBC).
  23. Thanks batmagadanleadoff. I hate to think that just showing up and holding a ticket that says "you're assuming all liability" gives a team carte blanche to ignore any safety concerns. Perhaps a difference with those cases is that the MFYs have affirmatively chosen not to extend the netting while other teams did so.
  24. The first time I sat behind the netting, it was distracting for a few innings and then I didn't notice. If someone says that it blocks their view, they can move upstairs. Every game that the MFYs don't extend the netting is another day that they are putting their fans at risk. The little girl's family should be able to get Otani $ from the MFYs because the MFYs knew of the risk and failed to act. The MFYs will say that the family contributed to the negligence by sitting there despite the absence of the netting. However, even the Court agrees, in NY (unlike, e.g., Maryland) Plaintiff’s damages will be reduced by their own liability, but not barred completely. NY CPLR § 1411 (2012).
  25. He probably told his flunky to tell Sampson that while he was still on the payroll it was his responsibility to fire 4 famous Marlins. If the excuse is that he's not officially the owner, then he could have waited until he was the owner. Jerk. http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2017/09/23/what-in-the-heck-is-derek-jeter-doing-with-the-marlins/
