  1. As Johnny Bench once said when asked who was the better defensive catcher, "If we were on the same team, I'd be playing third base"
  2. I think we need to find a way to give Wheeler more than 6 points in the Schaefer voting
  3. My best guess is that the Harrelson cover was shot during the top of the ninth inning on August 22. That's Bobby Tolan running to first, and Rose was just out, scored 5-6 in the scorebook. This isn't the only time that Rose was out on an FC at second in that series, but it is the only time that there was a runner ahead of him at third base, which explains Buddy's looking toward third. Here's the box score: https://www.leaptoad.com/mets/gamedetail.php?gameno=1429&tabno=Dhttps://www.leaptoad.com/mets/gamedetail.php?gameno=1429&tabno=D
  4. My God I wish I was wrong....
  5. I had forgotten all about Cespedes....
  6. =Centerfield post_id=7672 time=1555644195 user_id=65] maybe those cost money to get the rights.

  8. That there are true Mets Classics that predate SNY.
  9. =G-Fafif post_id=7616 time=1555597334 user_id=55] Jed Lowrie is the Jonathan Tuttle of the New York Mets. Together we all made him up.
  10. This reminds me of 1973. I don't remember if it was the Daily News or the Post that posted a poll in their paper asking who was at fault: M. Donald Grant, Bob Scheffing, or Yogi Berra
  11. Here's to hoping the fan interruption will lead to some runs
  12. I just turned on the game. What in the Hell happened?
  13. It was a cold, windy night. He probably had no feel for the ball, and had a touch of pine tar or some substance in that spot.

  15. As much as I love the classic Doc cover, I love the New Yorker cartoon even more.

  17. I'm just glad we're back
  18. Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: I don;t even know why they call him Polar Bear. Why do they call him Polar Bear? Look at his build - sloping shoulders, but as strong as a bear. I saw Piss Missile Pete this morning in a google search of him. It was also a snapshot of his Wikipedia entry.
  19. To me, Ramos is a Met, mainly because he's not d'Arnaud. Cano is not yet a Met - I still expect to hear a John Sterling forced-pun whenever he does something positive Alonso is a Met, but I'm waiting for his bubble to burst, because we're not allowed to have nice things. Still getting used to Diaz. As Seo said, he has to blow a big save before he can become a Met. Speaking of d'Arnaud, I can't help but think that it's not a coincidence that deGrom's streak accured while d'Arnaud was on the DL/IL, and ended as soon as he was off of it.
  20. Gotta love Seaver's smug expression: "I'm the best pitcher in baseball, I'm a defending World Champion, and I'm married to Nancy." I think most of us would have that same expression.
  21. The Best Infield Ever cover, despite those horrid black jerseys. Makes me long for the days of the I Hate Rey Ordonez page...
  22. I may have to amend that. While Lenny is a reprobate, I find it interesting that so many of the 86 Mets are jumping to his defense.

I looked for a better image online but couldn't find one. I'll replace my image with that one, but you may have to clear browser cache to see the update. Yep - I see it :-) Now I have to rip this cover apart. I can only assume Marc Levine took each of these portraits, and frankly, they're horrible. Shot with too wide of a lens so the curvature makes their stomachs bow out, and Thor's head looks just odd...
  24. Like I said earlier, Ron looks worse here than anyone he painted in an unfavorable light.
