  1. Oh dear god, I miss Gary, Keith and Ron SO MUCH.
  2. Apparently this is a Juan Soto Game, with some other guys too.
  3. Lights not working so we may be starting a bit late. They're actually shilling for Apple products during the delay. Ay caramba.
  4. Nope. The Apple pre-game is as vapid, annoying and as full of irrelevancies as anything from Fox or ESPN. It's a low bar but they're limboing for dear life.
  5. Solid game all around. Megilla has gotten himself on Buck's good side early. It's clear that the Nats are going to suck this year. They've got some pieces, but also too many misfit toys and placeholders.
  6. =Centerfield post_id=88704 time=1649386560 user_id=65] I feel like it's been 5 years since I watched the Mets win. This is nice.
  7. Ya know, Trevor May wasn't good last year and is continuing that trend this year.
  8. Megill acquits himself admirably. Now don't screw it up, bullpen people.
  9. Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: Magoo throws 99. Who knew? Yeah, he's got a jump of about 4-5 MPH on his velo. Hoping he doesn't blow his arm out. That play by Cano was a little sketchy, but it worked.
  10. At least they'll be well fed. This is a great Brazilian barbecue place in DC. Eduardo Escobar took the Mets, including staffers, to dinner at Fogo De Chao last night. Around 70 people were said to have attended.
  11. 1. What will The Mets record will be? 77-85 2. Where will The Mets finish in the NL East? 4th 3. Will The Mets make the playoffs (yes/no)? NO 4. If so, A. Where exactly will their record land, 1 through 6 (remember that there are 3 Wild Cards), in the NL; N/A B. How far will they advance; and, N/A C. The number of games in their final round? NA 5. Who wins the World Series (can be the same answer as Q.4.B.)? Blue Jays 6. How many home runs will Pete Alonso hit? 40 I was doom and gloom last year and was right. It's looking sketchy this year as well. The offense will be better, but everybody's offense will be better due to the NLDH. They're not out of spring training and already 60% of the rotation is hurt. The bullpen is arguably worse than last year (and it wasn't exactly a strength then). It will be a long hot summer in Flushing. Buck may want to go with the cotton uniforms. Prove me wrong, Metsies.
  12. I've seen this movie before and I don't like the ending.
  13. April 2, 2023.
  14. Hit .231 last year so I'm not impressed. .240, 10/50. No real 4th outfielder so he'll play every day.
  15. =smg58 post_id=87975 time=1648741084 user_id=62] .270/.330/.480, with 25 HR and 85 RBI. He'll be pretty good.
  16. https://i.pinimg.com/564x/5b/9d/64/5b9d641512841fdfa6daf1faf890597e.jpg> The Polar Bear will eat. .265 40/110. Wins the HR Derby because of course he does.
  17. Won't be worth it for 4 years, but he'll be worth it this year. .280, 15/65, 40 steals, 90 runs.
  18. He's no hound. 13-6, 3.50 ERA
  19. Looks to be on-point this spring. .275 25/80.
  20. Zimmo will Zimmo. .290/12/60, 100 scored. Will still run to first on a walk.
  21. Eh. Still trying to figure out if he wants to hit for power or average. .260/10/50 and below average at defense.
  22. Hooray for snags!
  23. Paddock has been trending badly and was injured last year. Hosmer is of no use as there are already 2 DH's in Cano and Davis. And if he's going to play first Piss Missile Pete won't be happy as the DH. I know the Padres are trying to get out from under the Hosmer contract but this looks like Cano/Diaz 2.0.
