  1. And that's your final. You can take whatever comfort you may derive from the fact that the Mets shut the Bengals down after the fourth, and Tornto's 17-5 drubbing of the Yankees in Dunedin.
  2. His WAR is very much a product of his games played --- his injury curtailing his playing time and possibly surpressing his productivity upon his return. The second point is obviously speculative, as is whether you think is injury is indicative of a developing pattern or a harbinger of a chronic impingement on his abilities. Projected over a workload the size of Jose Reyes', for example, you get 2.6 WAR (using the lower bb-ref figure), comparable to Reyes' 2.8. That won't redeem last season, certainly, but it may promise more hope than his injury shortened season provides on its own. It's easy to forget, but he was regularly thwacking doubles into the gap before his injury. He was hitting when he came back in July, but the doubles and walks weren't there. He's only 23, though, so I imagine he can still get his game firing on multiple cylinders at once. Jose Reyes was generally a less productive player than Ruben before he turned 23.
  3. Losing 9-1 in St. Lucie. Dillon Gee with a dreadful start.
  4. Bottom of the fifth and it's 17-4. I love the happy hometown spin MLB webpages give everything. Yankees.com reports, "Pair of doubles gives Yankees a third-inning boost." Great! Sucker.
  5. Blue Jays 15 Yankees 1 Waiting for the third inning to start.
  6. Bad math. It should say .803.
  7. .304 / .381 / .422 / .794. By the skin of Buddy Harrelson's glove, we should all have a batting average so empty as Ruben's.
  8. MFS62 wrote: He said that Jeter IS Captain America, and has been for 15 years. Well, maybe Captain America could explain our dusty national fireplace mantle is lacking any WBC trophies. Did Thor pull a hammie? (Perhaps a superhero who is unabashedly a product of PEDs isn't the best metaphor anywutz.)
  9. Of course, you're spoiling all these movies for me. Except Sliding Doors. I was never going to see that anyway.
  10. Starts off 9-1. Finishes 10-7, 3.76.
  11. Italy climbs out ahead of both the Dominican Republic and Enchanted Isle of Puerto Rico but ends up spitting the bit and giving the lead back both times and exiting. I don't know how those players are going to be able to show their faces back in Italy, if they ever decide to visit ever.
  12. The first round pick from 2012 still had no forumommy or poppy. Well that's about to change, in light of his $10,000 donation to Hurricane Sandy relief.
  13. There's a lot of inaccuracies in that, not least of which is to refer to Jeff Wilpon as the Mets' owner. Not yet, he's not. I think any number of banks own more than... HOLY CRAP! WHITE SMOKE!!

  15. The WBC should be renamed the Jeter Invitational, where all men, no matter what their background, struggle to live up to an ideal they can only approach but never reach.
  16. Can he pull up the top of that uniform to wipe his nose on?

  18. Floating around the shoals of the Mets web:
  19. They can and should cut their "use" by (1) not continuously shortening the typical workload of starters, and by (2) pitching relievers less frequently for longer stints instead of more frequently for shorter stints. These strategies would serve baseball and pitchers morer than expanding the roster. That would only lead to ever more pitching changes. Baseball would be wet and wild and awesome with rosters of 16-18 guys.
  20. Five RBI.
  21. I know there was a conflict once or twice between Seaver and his lower-profile teammets, when he opted not to take his last start in a season when a win might have meant the difference between perhaps second and third place, which would have meant a meaningful bonus for the borderline players.
  22. Those shares hardly seem worth the time it took to vote them, much less the paper they were printed on.
  23. Lucas Duda kicks anyone who boos in the nuts.
  24. My boys just crawled up into the the top bunk.
  25. Verlander's a righty. Valdy bats lefty. His stance is just a bit open. There's going to be some exposure.
