=Centerfield post_id=1546 time=1548183034 user_id=65] Amazingly, Cabrera will only be playing in his age 33 season. He certainly seems older than that. In fact, I thought his best days were behind him when the Mets signed him the first time.
This will always be my favorite memory of Wilmer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmL4rNYmJ9Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmL4rNYmJ9U Thought from day 1 that he would become a 30 HR lineup staple. Doesn't matter - i still love him. Still gives me chills. I hope he has a fantastic year against everyone but the Mets.

=batmagadanleadoff post_id=657 time=1546741284 user_id=68] I've had it up to here already with Lagares this and Lagares that. The guy was made irrelevant as soon as Cespedes was acquired and went Babe Ruth nuts four seasons ago. Four seasons ago, ferchrissakes! On hitting alone, Lagares doesn't even deserve to be in the major leagues, let alone playing for the team in the world's biggest market. But let's write another million posts about this guy so we can reminisce about the great catches he used to make back in the Hoover administration. You think the Dodgers or the Yankees would've kept this guy around for the last four seasons?
=Fman99 post_id=198 time=1546166071 user_id=86] Kill the rotunda, redo it with Mets stuff. I hate that big 42. I respect the man and what he did for baseball but it has nothing to do with the Mets and it's front and center when you enter the park.
Hm. Not a whole lot of depth. TJ's not really an outfielder and Blanco/Davis/Lee are cannon fodder. If Tebow sees more than a few ML at bats, there's Trouble in River City. How far away is Lindsay?
Burkhardt grew on me eventually. Gelbs has not. He's a doofus. And those interviews he has with random people/celebrities/old ballplayers/family members of the rookie on the mound are excruciating. Channel-changing stuff.
