If Nimmo scores, Verlander will be in a position to get one of the cheaper wins of his career.

Touch 'em all, Francisco.

Well, I tried. More of a generic cool dark haired-rock guy in shades. But you knew which dude I was referring to. I don't get how Suter is usually successful. He comes set with the ball out in front in him and barely ever pulls it back behind him in his motion. Nobody gives you a better look.

It's really cool to see young Bob Dylan taking in the game behind home plate.

Nobody takes a cookie from Pete Alonso.

Just five more of those, Pete.

Ugh. The angle we had, it wasn't clear that the tag was on when he lifted his hand. But ... don't lift your hand.

Nice to see Álvarez lookin' like a little boy as he turns and heads for third.

Well, thank God for outfielders.

Big ol' hole. Big and ol'.

I dunno if it's my feed, but Bud Black seems to be rocking the President Trump spray tan.

Hey, the Parkies deserve fans too.

It looks like the Mets are playing an exhibition against the Parks Department team.

The one-year contract model hasn't been his friend.

Showalter announced last night that Vientos would be in the lineup for the next three days.

Sorry, man. I got my lineup posted, and before I hit submit, POW! yours snuck in there.

Yeah, that bounced over my head.

No, I am certainly not suggesting scenes should be there, only the notion of, as in the case of Art Howe, getting character right, whether that be a person or the character of the season. I thought I remembered a spring training delay. If I'm wrong, shame on me.

The rule is, essentially, if they don't tell you what it's for, they don't have to list the side effects. If they do tell you what it's for, look out. But even by the standards of other advertised medications, those Keytruda ads are scary as shit. "Other possible side-effects include acid shits, rusty lung, sudden death, and unexplained forest fires. Talk to your doctor if these symptoms persist."

After being ejected for the fourth time this season, and second time in four days, Aaron Boone has been suspended by MLB ... for one game.

Well, yes, but I mean the delayed opening to the season the patriotic pimping out of the uniforms and stadiums. It was an unavoidable and constant element in baseball. Chad Bradford also played with the team the previous season. What deserves a movie treatment from the 2001 post-season is Jeter's shovel pass play. Almost none of it makes any sense.

Guillorme tearing it up to the tune of .320 / .469 / .440 // .909 in 32 plate appearances since his demotion.

There's certainly that. And while Met fans have few good memories of Howe or his era, even beyond the gut, Hoffman's character doesn't really resemble Art at all. Somebody decided it would be fun to get an aged Yogi Berra to do film reviews, and one of the first things he pointed out was how they got Howe wrong. Also, it would have been hard to nod to reality without it becoming a distraction, but the story begins at the end of the 2001 season, and covers the delayed-starting 2002 season, but makes no mention of or not to 9/11.
