  1. Turns out when you only have 8 teams and a few auto drafters, these things do not take long. The entire draft was all of 40 minutes. I like my team despite the fact that I didn't get a single Met.

  2. It's time, fellers! Hop on in the draft room is open for business.
  3. He deserved to be sent down for all of that overconfident bragging up there.
  4. Going to miss the entire game due to work - doing a training the entire week of March 25-29 and won't be able to work from home and watch, or listen in real time. I can't watch the replay, either, as I play darts on Thursday nights. Bummed.

A sidebar box on his shoulder, but no header or footer text floating over him. Hard. To. Beat. https://i.pinimg.com/236x/e0/27/0d/e0270d6a2cd3d58796046ddfc7edf357--sports-art-sports-illustrated.jpg> This terrific cover also annoyed the living shit out of me. It's Seaver's only TSN cover as a Met. Are you kidding me, TSN? TSN, the weekly that featured baseball players on its covers virtually year round. TSN would cover a marginal player over the NBA championship because it was baseball season. I mean, a player, if he was a baseball player, could get on that cover just by having two hot weeks. Ken Reitz was on the cover of TSN. So was Jorge Orta. And Milt Wilcox. And Gary Alexander. I'd bet anything that every one of Tom Seaver's contemporaries that was a first ballot no doubt about it Hall of Famer -- I'm talking guys like Bench and Reggie and Rod Carew and Steve Carlton -- probably made the cover of TSN at least three times. And Seaver, the greatest pitcher of his generation, maybe even the best player of his generation, gets just one Met cover. What a gyp. I'm sure at some point he told someone to fuck off and that's why they never used him again.
  7. We're watching the replay. Noah looks sharp.
  8. Watching the replay. There's some hitters in this lineup. I am optimistic for 2019.
  9. I'm looking forward to attending Cuse games and knowing so many of the guys on the roster. Like this guy, for example.
  10. Can he be as good without being the man? Time will tell. I am glad he's back. I think he thrives.
  11. She's hot. Good hire.
  12. He's got Yanqui grease on him.
  13. I'm on board. Cheaters can beat the system now. He'll get on the good El Dopa and make believers of us. .290, 24 HRs, 88 RBIs, steady presence in the dugout. Anchors the lineup.
  14. Not really sure who this is.
  15. =metsmarathon post_id=3589 time=1551392026 user_id=83] I'm cool with this. One more reason to hate the Phillies.
  16. I actually do like your example case Dom Smith as the classic post hype sleeper. These spring injuries are going to be the window he needs to show his mettle. You watch.
  17. He's going to surprise the PHUC out of people this year, I predict.
  18. Christ. These guys are more snakebit than anyone. I think the team doctors are all just crazy shamans.
  19. Hopefully MLB network also has the replay of this tonight. They do often replay ST games in the evening.
  20. I'm hoping as I did yesterday to watch some of this on replay. It starts at 8 on SNY. Beats the Oscars, anyway.
  21. Watched most of this game tonight on the replay. Good to have baseball on TV, Gary, Keith & Ron, some '69 alums on the broadcast, all of it.
  22. Hell if I know.
  23. Seriously.
  24. Maybe he'll be less inclined to stomping his feet and pouting when his inning gets tough. Cause that's baby shit.
  25. Not us. I did read on the Mets official site that there's a chance the big league team plays a game here in the 'Cuse sometime in the stretch between departing PSL and opening day. Which would be fucktacular.
