  1. Glove tossing malcontent Jorge Lopez, now a National, bounced from yesterday's game for hitting a batter and then throwing at Andrew McCutchen's head. The next Nats pitcher subsequently gave up a grand slam.
  2. Looks good from the trailer and has good reviews. I cannot endure a movie theater at this point in my life, I'm too old and too annoyed by commercials and adjacent phones and really just everything that is stupid and annoying, so I'll have to catch it once it's streaming.
  3. The Mets' web site seems to think the most likely plan, should Taylor continue to suck wind, is to have Acuna play more CF and then use Baty and ultimately McNeil at 2B.
  4. Cookie Carrasco off to a rough start in the Bronx, an ERA of 7.71 and topping out at 92 MPH on his fastball. The end is nigh methinks. Meanwhile, Dom Smith toiling away for the Yanquis' AAA team at 1B, where he was spotted by yours truly at a Syracuse Mets game last week.
  5. I'm not going to watch these clips but at the same time I will make a snap judgement that it's stupid and when I see it in person later this season I will confirm that in the first person.
  6. Oh yeah I didn't think of that. Soto batted before Holmes pitched. I had it on in the car as I was driving
  7. I don't think it's official till I see a Mets onesie. Also how do you decide whether Soto debuted before Holmes? The Mets opened the game in the field meaning the debuted at the same moment, didn't they?
  8. I'd like it more if the Bronx giraffe was always wearing a different MFY jersey, all of which had both the number and the name written on the back, like their dumb ass fans wear.
  9. Yeah I'm changing my answer to Max Krack-knick
  10. Phil Maton on a one year deal to help bolster the St. Louis bullpen
  11. Episode 85 of the Mets on Tap podcast now available for listening ! Catch Ceetar and I discussing catching depth, spring injuries, rotation battles, ticket prices, and the alarming trend of local breweries closing their doors. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mets-on-tap/id1558213831 Or, you know, don't listen, and just go **** off in the corner somewhere.
  12. I think doctor's cut his elbow open and find that it's all just ticker tape in there where it should be tendons and such. Sucks to suck
  13. Home opener is Tuesday, April 1st. April baseball in Syracuse is mad stupid, don't kid yourself. In more immediately relevant news, if you're at a home game in my town this summer after mid May, swing by the souvenir shop and say hello to Fboy, who has secured summer employment there and is excited to be on the Mets' payroll this year !
  14. We're dynamic and insightful. Well, except for me, as I started drinking several hours before we recorded. Maybe it still turned out all right.
  15. What about WPIX games though?
  16. While I'm sure many of you have been enjoying the regular off season content from G-Fafif and company in the National League Town podcast, I'm happy to announce the return of the much beloved (presumably) Mets on Tap podcast for this season, where Ceetar, ABNS, Seawolf and I will be discussing all things both Mets and craft beer related (recording tonight, posting tomorrow morning). Listen/subscribe via normal podcast sources or from our site https://www.barleyprose.com where episodes are also posted
  17. Marcus Stroman, who went 10-9 last year with an ERA of 4.31 and is projected as the MFYs sixth best starter, having a hissy fit already because he's a starter and will not pitch out of the bullpen. I liked him when he wore our colors but he seems like a dick since he left.
  18. George Harrison
  19. I think he hits 45 HRs in 2025, which is a pace of about 9 per month. As streaky as Pete is I think that's reasonable. So that'd put him right around the beginning of July. I'll go with July 12 which is Fgirl's birthday.
  20. We're getting down to the wire. Pitchers and catchers report a week from today. Position players report a week from Monday. That's twelve days hence. You'd have to think that both the Alonso and Bregman contracts will be resolved by that Monday/Tuesday (Toronto position players report Tues 2/18).
  21. Cookie Carrasco signs a minor league deal with the MFYs. He's been much more of a tomato can than a cookie in the last two seasons.
  22. It's not even the right sport. What does Boomer Esiason know? I won't believe it until Mark Messier is reporting the same
  23. Heyman reporting now that Pete "desperately" wants to return to the Mets. Of course he does!
  24. Well cited
  25. Lol I hate to be that guy but I'm actually going to be on vacation that weekend. February is a bit early for a draft, isn't it ? I still don't mind an auto drafted team, tbh
