  2. Kind of has a Charles Bronson/Robert Blake look.
  3. Let 'em all go to Hell except Met 961!
  4.

  5. I'm guessing amphetamine suspensions are on something like a 35-70-105 schedule, rather than the 50-100-deep-dark-hole schedule of 'roids and HGH. It would have been nice if they thought to pop Miggy before he went 5-9 against us in KC.
  6. And the new fawnlet is named... Bentley. Bentley Buck.
  7. I used to play keyboards and run drum loops for the South Shore Human League. We used to encore with "Fascination," and it killed like every time.
  8. He and Magadan so belong next to each other. Never quite had the same batting eye, but else, they're two peas in a pod.
  9. In the house to wish him luck tonight are fellow possessive-prefix Mets Jeff D'Amico, Mike DeJean, John DeMerit, Joe DePastino, Mike DiFelice, Jack DiLauro, and Jerry Dipoto. O'Brien, O'Connor, O'Day, and O'Malley also making the trip.

  11. Mets.com says he's wearing 15. Seems to be a brutal blow against the already shaky case for Beltran number retirement. And an evocation of Jerry Grote. Hopefully he hits better than young Jerry did.
  12. This was the year that the Mets went north with like five rookies on their pitching staff, and meant to carry journeyman NRI Nelson Briles too, but they couldn't come to terms as they were breaking camp. Funny to hear Bob Murphy talking with sunny delight about how happy and successful the Mets are with Neil Allen and Jesse Orosco in their starting rotation, when one was destined to soon hit the bullpen and other to return to Tidewater for the better part of three seasons and return to become the most prolific reliever of all time.
  13. To be fair to Mazz, the fabric and cut of the times made for a lot of guys wearing pants that looked like superhero tights. Willie Mona�ez looks like circus strongman in those pants. They should have a turn-back-the-clock-night with those uniforms, just for Recker.
  14. "Swan is one of the real hard throwers in baseball. His fasteball is usually clocked in excess of 90 miles an hour." Swan's form looks pretty lousy in the first. It may be the mound, but his center of gravity is consistently falling toward the first base line.
  15. How about the intro with the explanation of Skip Lockwood asking the official scorer to take the error from the day before off of Doug Flynn and put it on himself for not effectively backing up the base? I loved Flynnie, but it seems to me if a throw gets past the bag, it's either on thee thrower or the guy covering. Backing up effectively is a wild card. Here's thinking the Mets were defensive of Flynn's rep at second, trying to help him get the Gold Glove that he had perhaps deserved the year before but had instead gone to Manny Trillo. That season's 1979 GG for NL secondbasemen would instead go to Davy Lopes. Flynn would finally collect his only hardware in 1980.
  16. Hey, Headley, give back that Gold Glove and I'll take the whammy off.
  17. Colt Hines sighting.

I'm disappointed. Satin swinging at the breaking ball beneath the knees. I think Ike may have transferred his bug to his firstbasin' brother.
  19. Two hits by Recker. "Take your time, John," he says. "Your family needs you."
  20. I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy.
  21. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Is it just me, or is Niese getting fat around the ass and belly? Anthony Recker absorbs the best qualities of everybody else.
  22. When the highest-profile sponsor the San Diego Padres can find for behind-the-plate advertising is a bail bondsman*, I'm wondering if our society is doomed. *Life, of course, imitating satire here, as "Chico's Bail Bonds" was the famed sponsor of the Bad News Bears.
  23. That's Chase Headley, winner of David Wright's 2012 Gold Glove.
  24. Walky walky Ikey Ikey.
  25. It's Lundy. Both starting catchers on maternity leave? That's gotta be a first.
