    Mays Williams Mantle Aaron Seaver Banks Rose If Rose is ineligible, then put in Bonds If Bonds is ineligible due to the steroids thing, then put in Yaz.

    Thole might be useful at AAA. He's younger than Monel, and neither is going to hit if they're brought up.

    I wonder if Mejia got a WS share. Teams are usually generous about shares and Mejia was on the active roster. I don't no how that might work with his suspension.

    Travis d'Arnaud's last name come from the French through German and originally meant "Eagle." "Arnold" is the equivalent English version. The d' is interesting. It's usually a sign of nobility, but, though there are Arnauds in France, and even a noble family, none used the form "d'Arnaud." It may have been added as an affectation when the family immigrated to America. DeGrom is Belgian, but no one really knows the etymology.

    It ain't over: http://metsblog.com/metsblog/mets-expected-to-make-legitimate-bid-for-daniel-murphy/ The Mets are expected to make a legitimate attempt to re-sign Daniel Murphy, according to Adam Rubin of ESPN New York (Nov. 18, 2015). Murphy rejected the team�s $15.8 million, one-year qualifying offer last Friday. According to Rubin, because Murphy enjoyed his time with the organization, the Mets believe he might return even if they are not the highest bidder. The Mets will receive a compensatory draft pick if Murphy signs with a new team. He is expected to receive offers around 3-4 years and $12-15 million a season (Nov. 11, 2015).

    Wilson Defensive Players of the Year Awards Handed out regardless of league, but most of these guys are National Leaguers Pitcher: Jacob deGrom, New York Mets The most impressive fact I picked up from this is that DeGrom has yet to make an error in his major league career.

    Nothing particularly good here, so no vote. I do note, however, the reaction to Heston's no-hitter against them. It led to a ton of disgust and hand wringing and complaining -- despite the fact that, at the end of the day, the Mets were still in first place by half a game. Then, three months later, the Mets are no hit again, and no one seemed to notice.

    The quality of puns in the tabloids has gone way down.

    In the past few days, we saw how the team would play without Murphy and Cespedis in the lineup.

    OK, then: solid geometry. Or parabola, hyperbola, circle, and ellipse.

    David Wright holds many Mets records, but tomorrow he will no longer be the the team leader in one category -- number of games with the Mets without a World Series appearance (with the Mets). Let's name the current top ten players in this category. The person has to have appeared in no WS games with the Mets (though they can be in the WS for other teams). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. As a bonus, name the top ten pitchers (actually 11, since there was a tie for 10th place). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10T. 10T. One name per post, of course.

    Not preseason, but it was a mid-season scandal when the Mets were no-hit in June and the reaction was: (My feeling at the time was, "They're still a half-game in first.") Then, when they were no-hit by Scherzer three months later, and the reaction was:

    Very happy about it. It is so weird watching the Mets play in October, and having them so dominant.

    It's Murphy's world and we're all just living in it.
