  1. Guessing he stubbed it on some hotel furniture.
  2. MLBPA would have reflexively fought any player sanctions. That's why Manfred didn't even try. He wanted this swept under the rug as quickly as possible and not dragged out by players fighting back. Just my .02. Now players on other teams may make it a bigger mess anyway, but I'm willing to bet that any player on an opposing team would have gone along with the scheme if they were an Astro. That's why I don't really buy the high dudgeon from other position players. Pitchers, though, they have a right to be pissed.
  3. Mark Cuban, for less.
  4. Boy, Royce Ring and Sam Haggerty could be twins.
  5. Irony alert: Carlos Beltran is worth $80 million.
  6. There's something wrong with America when Jim Breuer is worth $3,000,000.
  7. Kept waiting for the bat to catch up with the glove. It never did. Got injured and a little pudgy at times, which didn't help.
  8. =kcmets post_id=31332 time=1581284844 user_id=53] Again, it's a fair and appropriate question. Let's see if anyone else is a non-pod before judging me.
  9. =86dreamer post_id=31395 time=1581359856 user_id=97] agree that the consolidated entity including SNY is likely profitable. But not hard to imagine the baseball club losing money if they are not receiving full market value for the broadcasting rights from SNY. Wilpons are trying to sell the expense vehicle and keep the revenue vehicle.
  10. With pitchers and catchers arriving, it's time for the 'Best shape of his life' stories. Today's entry- Jeurys Familia, who lost 30 pounds of soul-crushing late-inning base hits, or fat, one of those two. https://nypost.com/2020/01/30/mets-jeurys-familia-sheds-30-pounds-as-he-eyes-2020-bounce-back/?utm_source=NYPTwitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_medium=SocialFlow&__twitter_impression=truehttps://nypost.com/2020/01/30/mets-jeurys-familia-sheds-30-pounds-as-he-eyes-2020-bounce-back/?utm_source=NYPTwitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_medium=SocialFlow&__twitter_impression=true
  11. Nobody who's being handed $2.6 billion is getting screwed.
  12. =41Forever post_id=31162 time=1580995250 user_id=69] I can also see someone in Cohen's camp leaking to the media that the sale has slowed as an additional way to put pressure on the Wilpons.
  13. Hitting coach. Next.
  14. Tim Healey @timbhealey · 1m The Mets are not commenting on the possibility that pending sale of the team to Steve Cohen is dead. Sterling Partners statement: “The parties are subject to confidentiality obligations, including a mutual non-disclosure agreement, and therefore cannot comment.”
  15. Dom has options and can play in Syracuse, but he really needs to be traded now. I like Adams coming off the bench.
  16. This bullpen will rise or fall depending on what Diaz and Familia do. If they're good, they won't need the Strops of the world. If they're bad, Pedro Strop wouldn't have made a difference. I get the feeling Brodie is looking at it that way, too.
  17. Had his chances, didn't seize them. So it goes.

  19. =G-Fafif post_id=30645 time=1580234085 user_id=55] Astros reportedly hiring Dusty Baker to manage grimy sign-stealers.
  20. =Fman99 post_id=30637 time=1580230267 user_id=86] I hate it and I don't care what you try to do to make it more palliative. HATE IT.
  21. Did anyone else go? We went and I have to admit, it was a cracking good time- even though the weather was atrocious.
  22. =smg58 post_id=30563 time=1580148922 user_id=62] So who exactly wants this?
  23. Probably tears it up at AAA and gets a cuppa.
