Sure, that. Or any of a dozen Ramones songs. Or "Good Lovin'." Or "Rock Box." Or "Cecilia." O, I don't know, "Mr. Brightside." The logic that "Mets" means "Queens/Brooklyn/Long Island" and "Q/B/LI" means "Billy Juckets" and "BJ" means "Piano Man" is just so lazy. Even "You May Be Right" or "Sometimes a Fantasy" or "All for Leyna" would have been thoughtful.

Casey's reached the top 10. This is getting exciting and frightening all at the same time. I'm a little surprised the Mets aren't hammering this story.

Interesting factoid about this transaction is that the Mets don't need to waive anybody or transfer anybody to the 60-Day DL to make room for Muno. Apparently, Mejia, while under suspension, doesn't count against the 40-man limit. Seems to me that, if a team gets both roster relief and salary relief when a player is suspended, it sort of absolves them form any responsibility to provide guidance or policing to players with regard to PED usage. In fact, it almost gives the Phils a professional motivation to surreptitiously dose Ryan Howard.

He's everywhere this season. Where has he been up 'til now? He's from Valley Stream but I get the idea he's been laying low during lean times.

Hey, you're right! Get with the granderprogram, Curtis!

Tejaddy HAS hit two three-run homers � both coming during his little appreciated offensive surge down the stretch last year � but interesting, has NEVER hit a home run while the Mets have been behind.

There's been one or two Alderson-era non-drafted international signees that have pre-dated him, like Montero. And the likes of Dario Alvarez, picked up as a minor league free agent who had been out of affiliated ball for three years.

I also pegged him for 30 homers in the expectations threads a year or two before it happened. I had faith in the guy. I just had more faith in Davis in the context you created, which seemed artificial to me at the time, but turned out to be bone-chillingly real.

You were told? You have an inside source in Mets management?

Hey, man, you missed when I quickly changed Ted Williams to Robin Yount. That's Hall-of-Famer Robin Yount.

Not mentioned a lot during his hot spring, but Muno is a survivor of a minor league PED suspension. [fimg=250:3r0au7it]http://steroid-seller.com/68-250-thickbox/drostanolone-propionate-genesis-100-mg-ml-10-ml.jpg[/fimg:3r0au7it] Mom always said never drostanolone. Always bring someone with you.

Well, I am the only one you quoted.

I changed my mind on Teddy.

Brett Mays Aaron Ummm... Yount

Considering he was average in 2012 and a solid hitter every other year I'd say the patience was in finding him a place to play that he wouldn't wreck them defensively. I didn't say otherwise.

Atlanta had the night off, so guess who just took over the division?

Yay, a post in the Film Review Forum. This seems to confirm my long-held suspicion that the protagonist is a coming-of-age paduan/offspring of Leia and Han, likely the young woman. For if we know anything about long-delayed Harrison Ford sequels, the adult bambinos from his libertine years will show up. Not for nothing, but if we're trying to restore balance to the Force here, shouldn't Star Wars films be released in May?

It's called baseball, my friends. Nothing like it.

Deaux.

It's nice to see swings and misses on sinkers.

It's a Familia affair.

That's some good teammatin', Prado.
