  1. An excellent group with many great choices but your #1 selection for the entire tournament is in this group.
  2. I've read guesses that Conforto goes to Seattle, where he is from, or Philadelphia, because of new Hitting Coach Kevin Long.
  3. Ed, Fonzie and me: three Mets legends with the same birthday. Thanks, Edgy and G-Fafif.
  4. That's true but I think that they want to add top players to the system and if they sign Castellanos they lose pick 14. It's why Starling Marte and Kris Bryant make more sense as they wouldn't cost the Mets a draft pick (because they were traded during the last year of their contract).
  5. Frayed Knot wrote: Not a whole lotta sticking up for McSquirrel in that SNY clip, eh? Nope. They were saying, "he had it coming".
  6. If not for the QO, definitely but not with the loss of a draft pick when they are trying to replenish the minors as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that'll be a home run.
  7. Add another ex-Met to the WSH coaching staff as Ricky Bones leaves the Mets bullpen to become the bullpen coach of WSH. Henry Blanco stays with the organization in another capacity TBD.
  8. Time to act, even if you're Acting in your role. I'm thinking that the Mets will "extend" QO's to Conforto and Syndergaard if only to get an extra draft pick should the offer be declined. Noah wants to stay and will likely accept. We're not sure about Conforto.
  9. Congratulations to the Braves, the team and the Front Office. They lost one of the top 5 players in baseball to injury, a very good OF because of his despicable behavior plus a top SP to injury and still won with crafty trades at the deadline that didn't cost them a top 10 prospect. Their fans and the "look-at-me" organist can go screw themselves. The last 2 162-game season World Champions are from the NL East. Let's hope that the Mets can be the 3d in 2022.
  10. Gary DiSarcina will be the 3B coach of the Nationals next season. He was good at positioning the IFers but not the best at sending runners.
  11. There's a lot going on in this group: the Lindor trade and signing; Covid; Porter allegations and firing. The Post's "Lin It" cover is creepy.
  12. As much as I want this series to be over I don't want the ATL fans to celebrate at home, especially after their embrace of The Former Guy last night and how it appears that they've doubled down on the racist chop.
  13. Odd... the Mets don't play in ATL until July, and then monthly until the end of the season.
  14. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/32496167/world-series-2021-well-atlanta-braves-move-chophttps://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/32496167/world-series-2021-well-atlanta-braves-move-chop https://www.si.com/mlb/2021/10/28/atlanta-braves-tomahawk-chop-daily-coverhttps://www.si.com/mlb/2021/10/28/atlanta-braves-tomahawk-chop-daily-cover F the Braves and their fans. I crave baseball when it's not there but this Series can't be over fast enough for me.
  15. Nice of OAK allowed Melvin to go to another team even though he was under contract as opposed to the SOB in MIL.
  16. I have a pre-Derby favorite but I don't want to be accused of improperly influencing the vote so I'll keep it to myself.
  17. It won't be Bob Melvin:
  18. It's hard to believe that there are 3 pitchers who are better fielders than Jake, Marcus, and Taijuan.
  19. I'm curious. Round it up if it's 2/3 and down if it's 1/3 or even a quick check of the score.
  20. The NFL starts the Super Bowl at 6:38 PM, earlier than other night games, so that everyone can see the whole game. MLB starts the World Series games at 8:10, later than other night games, and it will be close to midnight in the east coast when most of the games end.
  21. CF: Don't forget Kevin Arnold of the original "The Wonder Years".

  23. Edgy MD wrote: I wouldn't worry about that. If they are able to recognize the right guy, there are hundreds of right guys out there. I think a greater concern is the effect the front office job search might have on delaying the Mets in the player market, which is a much more finite field. I agree with your second point. My point is that if Shildt is the shit then they won't get him and SD will. If he's not the right guy then, yes, it doesn't matter.
  24. I agree, smg58, but I fear that if they want Shildt they won't be able to get him as he's already under consideration by SD and the Mets are waiting until they hire a GM/POBO.
  25. If ATL wins 2 of the last 3 WS Winners will be from the NL East (and 2 for 2 following 162 game seasons). Perhaps the Mets would like to join in next season.
