Lucas is dreamy.

Eric Campbell busted his ass climbing out of the dugout.

Steal, EY.

Keith, call something else good.

Good time to start hitting, Mets. Maybe the best time.

Welcome to 2014, Wilfredo.

Recker misses the hanger. Once-a-Week Recker > Every-Day Recker

Track is absolutely slathered in autotune. Show some life, Mets. Do it for the middle school girls.

A handful of Lincolnbeards on these Astros.

Your instinct is guiding you well. It's garbage.

Good time to bring in deGrom and try and steal one more win for him.

den Dekker is your teen idol, girlies.

Montero showing something nice here.

John Franco on the radio tonight brought nothing to the table. Couldn't wait to get home and listen to... anybody.

I don't know who everybody is. Everybody is talking in this regard? I imagine he'd be loyal to the Mets if they made him an offer that satisfied him. Last employer? Well it does give the team the first shot at him. But I haven't heard anybody speaking in this regard. Certainly I'd like to have 25 guys with his batting eye.

Jose Altuve --- not a tall man.

I know, right? Let's play 200! Teen idols are like the legendary hydra. Cut off one head, and two more grow back.

You know, I was thinking they should activate Teagarden for the last series, just because. I mean, who cares if he's home watching his home decorating shows at this point and hasn't faced live pitching in weeks, everybody carries three or more catchers in September, and it allows them not to get burned by late-inning maneuvering. But here's a better idea an they can do it without calling anybody up: Activate Dave Racianello.

Who is Kevin Canelon? Kevin is one of those non-prospect/prospects that grind away at a probably-going-nowhere career in the minors. He got signed at 17 out of Caracas, Venezuela and has been pitching his heart out for four summers. But that hasn't gotten him too far. Three of those summer got him nowhere beyond the Dominican Summer League. So he's only gotten one go stateside, and because he was signed at 17 and not 16, he's already eligible for the Rule 5 draft. And he's almost a mathematical certainty not to be drafted, because who picks a guy who has one (short) season in US ball in the Gulf Coast League? No one, that's who. Maybe the minor league portion of the draft, but unlikely. But here's the cool part. In that one short season, he appeared in 12 games, five of them starts, and pitched 37 1/3 innings. Not much of a workload, but not a meaningless sample either. In that 37 1/3 innings, he struck out 30 batters... and walked one. And it was intentional. I found that pretty cool. His SO/BB ratios by season 2011 (DSL): 1.25 2012 (DSL): 2.00 2013 (DSL): 3.125 2014 (GCL): 30.00

Tough grind, considering that we're getting maybe four big-league starters in the lineup every night. Yeah, I'm counting Tejada.

288 homers 574 doubles (21st All-Time, Active Leader) 1475 walks (20th All-Time, Active Leader) 136 Outfield assists (Active Leader) Might have been a real beast if he wasn't so health conscious in the outfield, but that's speculative, and he did end up playing 162 games twice. Never hurt at all through his prime years, defined liberally.

I missed that. Some dick napping on his girl's shoulder behind home plate.

Bad checked swing strike calls multiply when the days grow short.
