That video made me need to pee.

Bryce Harper is your defending MVP. Brad Hand is wearing 52 as he scratches Philadelphia off of his NL East Bingo card. Only Atlanta remains for him and he could have that wrapped up by the trading deadline. Kevin Long, filling out a Bingo card of his own, is their new batting instructor.

I could be an old man yelling at a cloud or something, but that strikes me as a group seriously lacking in the name power one normally associates with opening day starters. Framber Valdez is a goodish pitcher who has yet to pitch anything approaching a full season. Joe Ryan, on the other hand, seems to have been artificially created in a lab to make me feel better about Trevor Megill. JT Brubaker lives down the street from me. He's nice and all and his kids seem happy, but he generally divides his time between working on his car and short-term prison sentences.

If "special assistant to the GM" counts for "in the game," I think 1970 Met Mike Jorgensen is still bringing it.

I think Katie Nolan was the mother in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Great stuff.

We find that cause for celebration, because being egregiously given two more roster spots to use, the Mets only afforded one to an extra pitcher. It also (and we say this with less excitement) shows the difference in roster alignments in a DH league, where a team only tends to make the substitutions they want to make, rather than ones they have to make.

Well, I lose.

MLB artificially controlling the number of employers in the field also changes the calculus from what an employee in another industry might do in that. There's no exciting new startup in the industry with a new business model and venture capital behind them who is going to offer Conforto profit sharing in exchange for coming on board and lending the new firm instant credibility. If Conforto was an architect or an ad exec or a movie producer in a similar stage of his career, that might be exactly what he'd be doing.

I remember that he outmassed his wife by a ratio of what seemed like 4:1.

If the Mets are happy with his progress after a year, they included an option for 2023. He, of course, instantly hits the 60-Day Injured List.

Scusers drop to 0-2 tonight after leading through seven, as Anthony Vizcaya, Yoan López, and R.J. Alvarez conspire to cough up five over the final three innings against the Scranton/WilkesBarre RailRiders.

I thought I'd be low because I was thinking after my guess that we were talking about the upcoming season with the universal DH. Looking forward to my DQ gift certificate.

(2021)[/td90][td90]MLB (2021)[/td90] Well, it seems the Shreve news is not only real news, but official news as well, chastening all those who doubt. Congrats to CS, who is not only the most qualified choice, he's coming off the strongest season of the candidates and gives the team a second lefty. There'll actually be three lefties if they carry Peterson, but whether David gets that spot or a more traditional reliever (or another hitter, such as Travis Jaknowski) seems to be their last decision. Tough news for Jordan Yamamoto fans, but hopefully the Mets either hang onto the guy or get some value for him. Maybe the Marlins will give us back Federico Polanco for him.

So yeah, it's not even particularly close. Even Al Jackson in 1964 went into his OD start with more notches on his belt.

I'm pretty sure Tylor Megill, opening camp as the #6 starter, if he indeed gets the ball tomorrow, would make him the Mets Opening Day pitcher with the least amount of juice since ... ever?

According to Baseball America, I gained the nickname in my early teens, after developing my powerful forearms lifting bags of cement for my father's construction business in Venezuela. Either that or it's in reference to my propensity to visit Internet forums and start shit with people just to get a rise out of them.

　　NAME: Francisco Álvarez 　　AGE: 20 　　POSITION: Catcher 　　NUMBER: Wore 75 in camp. Currently rocking 24 in Binghamton 　　NICKNAME: "Troll" 　　fWAR IN 2021: 0.0 　　ZIPS PROJECTION FOR 2022: 1.4 I see by the lack of responses in the Joey Fuego thread that you are all shocked that ZIPS projects recovering warrior Joey Lucchesi to be the 11th-fWARiest Met of 2022. Well, what does it say that they're projecting a guy currently in AA to be #12? I guess it means that they possibly think that the Mets' MLB roster grows pretty soft in the middle, or maybe that they think I'm totally awesome, or possibly that they don't know what they're doing. I'm Francisco Álvarez, and I'm going for Door #2. Because I am awesome. I got a cool nickname, I'm routinely rated as one of the top two or three catching prospects in the game (sometimes #1), and I'm big and mighty. They have these new devices that wrap around the catchers' forearms, so that they can signal to the pitcher what pitch to throw, and my manager joked that it wouldn't fit around my forearms. I just get up in the morning looking like I'm going to fuck something up. And I do fuck some things up. I've hit 31 homers in 596 minor league plate appearances and I'm just hitting my stride. But I'm just 20 years old, and those 596 plate appearances are comparable to major league season. I'm green, is what you might say. But green is what trolls often are. They're often scary as shit as well. When they appear in a story, the story turns. So, let me know, when am I going to appear and just how is that story going to turn.

No Baty in the llneup, so I guess he's opening in Binghamton. Baty and Alvarez and Mauricio in one lineup could be really make a mark.

That's the nature of the affiliated minors. Often your plans and announcements have to be held up pending what the big league team is doing.

Best analyst the Mets ever had, even when simultanteously doing play by play. I'll double down on my advocacy for his Mets HoF enshrinement.
