  1. 3. Billy McKinney
  2. Does that leave only McCann, May (and maybe Loup, I can't remember) who have been on the active roster for every game?
  3. My nearly-30-year-old son (the erstwhile poster Lenny Harris) was walking down the street the other day with his Mets hat on and some random guy looked at him and said "Mets suck" for no apparent reason. Guy was clearly a MFY fan. My son stopped and said something to the effect of "actually, they don't suck. They're in first place. You could have said that many other years and been correct. It's the third-place Yankees who kind of suck this year." Makes a father proud.
  4. I was at yesterday's game. The only other game I've been to is the one vs. the Padres where we coughed up the lead with Tatis Jr hitting a grand slam followed by a homer by Machado. I need to change something up before the next time I go.
  5. I was just in Pittsburgh around July 4 (saw the Pirates beat the Braves 11-1, delightful) and drove through Cincinnati on my way to a wedding. It's a long drive (plus the highway was shut down for part of the way so had to backtrack through Cincinnati streets which was terrible). The boat down the Ohio would have been preferable.
  6. Agreed about Oakland. Of course the Raiders have moved and the Warriors moved across the Bay. The A's are the only game in town.
  7. Hard to figure that trade from the Marlins POV.

If so, how far will they advance and the number of games in their final round? NLDS (lose to LAD) 5. Who wins the World Series (can be the same answer a Q.4)? LAD 6.

  22. I'm generally not a Pixar enthusiast. I watched this because while at a workshop outside of Oaxaca two years ago I was introduced to the woman who was the model for the grandmother in the movie. So then I had to see it. It was nice having Mexican folklore front and center and was enjoyable enough but I felt the last half was muddled and kind of dragged.
