  1. Not sure about this. I feel like it'll either go well or flame out spectacularly- nothing in between. I like that he asked for Terry to be a bench coach; he'll need an old baseball guy to lean on and Collins has familiarity with all the players.
  2. March baseball, especially early Match baseball, is basically not doable for 16 MLB teams. BOS NYY NYM PHL WAS BAL PIT CLE CIN CHC CHW MIN KCR STL COL DET Not to say you won't get a 70 degree day in Washington on March 15th, but odds are just as good you'll get 10 inches of snow in Minneapolis or Cleveland or Chicago on March 15th.
  3. Lol. Good fun. Love how quick the reporter pivots.
  4. Still just can't see Beltran. Went with Perez, but I'm not enthused.
  5. I have to say, as much as Buck sucks, John Smoltz is okay as a color man. Doesn't talk too much and has decent insight when he does. He's no Ronny, but who is?
  6. I'm surprised the 7-11 tacos didn't scuttle the deal.
  7. Gonna be a lot of Alonso covers this year.
  8. Betting Rothschild winds up in Philly with Gerardi.
  9. Dare we hope that AJ Hinch is disgusted with the Astros and looking for new worlds to conquer?
  10. Truth be told, I didn't like any of these. But Mr. Met as an Elvis impersonator had a certain macabre fascination for me.
  11. I just can't figure why Beltran would want the job. He already has experience with the Wilpons so he knows how they work and how they undercut the front office and the manager. Why bother?

I just didn't see his style meshing very well with the Wilpons, which is key for any manager, sorry to say. If Jeffy told him to use pitchers more or less frequently, I'd imagine Girardi would blow a gasket. Mickey submitted to the request. A strong, confident manager would talk the owner out of meddling. I want THAT guy.

  15. Late '70's- early '80's. The Seaver trade was a dagger to the heart, and 78-82 I watched very little and attended even less. When they got him back in '83, I started to watch again, tentatively. When they got Hernandez I was ecstatic. I was fully back by '84.
  16. Well, we're just ignoring Cespedes, aren't we? I have to assume he'll at least make the attempt to come back and there's no place to put him but LF.
  17. Astros in 6. They're just a better team overall.
  18. I'm not conflicted in the least. ‘Stros.
  19. We are all Astros today. Pound that Budweiser, boys.
  20. Don't want Girardi. No more ex-MFY managers.
  21. It would behoove the Astros to win it tonight, as Game 6 would likely be a bullpen game with Gerrit Cole going on full rest in a potential Game 7.
  22. No Joe Espada?
  23. =metsmarathon post_id=24610 time=1571325920 user_id=83] i'm calling dibs on new jersey. not only do i want the best damned player in the game in mike trout, but also for the sheer pleasure of adding derek jeter to my roster. and making him ride the fucking pine every. single. game.
  24. Second-half covers are going to be much more fun than first-half covers.
  25. Ay Caramba. Too much work.
