    Anybubby want to hazard a guess as to the benefits of pinch-running Rajai Davis for J.D. Davis before the Confortoboom?

    Not one worth giving too much of a shit about. If they honestly want to do such a thing, let them do it. If they don't, don't. If the Mets otherwise want to honor him, but choose not to because he was arrested for domestic assault, that's fine. But do it because that's their authentic position, not because they're afraid of hashtags.

    Hey, our team can get uncontested stolen bases too!

    I'm feeling like it's been a week since Alonso put the ball in play.

    Rush Limbaugh is posting from Steve's account.

    Neil Walker, still a key part of the Mets' offense.

    And Conforto returns them to the game.

    J.D. Davis just did an emergency wrists-only swing and still drove it over the rightfielder's head.

    It's probably not that hard to figure out.

    I'm like George Will praising Senator Warren, saying, "I agree with her about almost nothing, but at least she'd bring some gravity to the role." I'm not particularly interested in which numbers the Mets retire, as long as they bring due gravity to the decision. As noted in the other thread, if it's a case of "Get me a guy," I can't get behind that.

    Not for nothing, but when Koosman entered the Mets Hall of Fame in 1989, the glorious wonder that was the scheduled double-header was on its last fumes. So unlike so many ceremonies of honor before, the Koosman induction did not happen before a packed house that had just enjoyed one game, was anticipating another, and were delighted to have a treat in between. Koosman's induction came before scheduled first pitch time, with folks still streaming in from the train platform, finding their seats or grabbing an early concession. There's probably video out there, but if I remember correctly, the stands were, like, 20%, full even though he was inducted in an era of regularly packed houses. And it was kind of bummer hearing him make a speech into the mostly empty and not fully attentive stands of Shea. Spider-Man's wedding had a more engaged audience. Here's to them doing it right this time.

    Big shot dudes that have fewer fWAR than Koo's 63.0: Bob F. Feller: 62.6 Dennis F. Eckersley: 61.8 Dazzy F. Vance: 61.6 Juan F. Marichal: 61.2 Rube F. Waddell: 60.0 Don F. Drysdale: 59.3 Jim F. Palmer: 56.8 Dwight F. Gooden: 56.7 I'm (again) not saying that this stat is the be-all-and-end-all, but outside of Eck (for half his career), these were all starting pitchers, so any honest way of measuring value above replacement is illuminating. I'm neither for nor against this, but don't kid yourself. Koosman was the giraffe's tits. If he got a quick pass from the BBWAA when his name came up for the Hall, it's largely because he got credited with a lot of losses that really belong to Joe McDonald and M. Donald Grant. Fun Koo' Fact: In addition to his wins and losses, he got 17 career saves!

Not that Koos isn't worthy, but those clamoring for Carter, Hernandez, Strawberry, Gooden, a joint for McGraw & Franco, and of course to officially put 24 on the wall for Willie, etc will have more fuel to their fire. People are clamoring for a joint for Franco? Not me. I can tell you that.

    I don't know what Wilderness Axe Woman does what she does, but mercy, she does it to me.
  18. Edgy MD
    WOWBOBWOW! Eight and 17 remain mothballed, but fuck it, let's retire an active number. SNEAKY!

    Wilson Ramos: .434 / .462 / .576 // 1.038, and a stolen base! What does a man have to do to stop the Piss Missile?
  20. Edgy MD
    sprogk.
  21. Edgy MD
    If they get to the pitcher's spot, is Canó available?
  22. Edgy MD
    OK, golden chance here to get Sewald his elusive first win.
  23. Edgy MD
    No such luck. Leave Nimmo in, here. Let the new pitcher bat in Lagares' spot.
  24. Edgy MD
    Not only did Brandon get a break on Ball Four, I'm surprised he didn't swing at that. He loves that pitch. Do it again, Amed.

    =G-Fafif post_id=22668 time=1569289814 user_id=55] This one has 8-7 loss written all over its underside.
