  3. One of my wife's all time favorite Mets. Though she butchered his name most times, calling him "Edguardo."
  4. Oh good a manager with no MLB managing experience. That won't be a massive clusterfuck like the last two guys were
  5. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 216 9/9: Rarity: 150 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 MIN/1Team - Kirby Puckett 29 MIN/Sub3ERA - Johan 41 MIN/HOF - Dave Winfield 3 LAD/1Team - Jackie Robinson 13 LAD/Sub3ERA - Koufax 19 LAD/HOF - Gil Hodges 2 CIN/1Team - Johnny Bench 23 CIN/Sub3ERA - Aroldis Chapman 15 CIN/HOF - Seaver 4
  6. Yeah it'd be brutal to root for the same team for 30-40 years while watching them never win the World Series in all that time.
  7. Yeah this whole contest is just going to make me mad at the 2023 Mets all over again.

  9. Didn't watch. Won't watch. Don't care. Won't care.
  10. You're saying you could make baseball as great as soccer? Jeesh, what'd we ever do to you?
  11. Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: He had a really good year bouncing back from a bad one. Former MVP. He's bouncing back from three consecutive years, not one. He was dreadful for all of 2020-2022. Let's not understate that. I want no part of this guy. He reeks of Jeromy Burnitz's atrocious second Met stint.

  13. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 206 9/9: Rarity: 130 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 I couldn't think of any non-obvious candidates for the PHL/300 HR club.

  14. Why now, why not ten years ago?
  15. Good, peace out Phillies and don't forget to fuck yourselves when you get home
  16. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 205 9/9: Rarity: 101 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 I keep this up in the corner and ponder it for hours during the work day. This one took me 3 hours (mostly the ANA/CHC square). KC/DET - Juan Gonzalez 1 CHC/DET - Edwin Jackson 4 2000K/DET - Scherzer 23 CWS/KC - Bo Jackson 18 CWS/CHC - Sammy Sosa 27 CWS/2000K - Seaver 16 ANA/KC - Kevin Appier 4 ANA/CHC - Rich Hill 4 ANA/2000K - Don Sutton 4

If I care about one of my guys, or any guy for that matter, potentially being in the mix for a GG, MVP, ROY, CY, etc., I'm going to look forward to the reveal of the final results even if my fave ultimately winds up outside the top three. With the pre-release list I no longer have interest in the ones where they tell me ahead of time that he/they have no shot. There's little to no drama in finding out whether someone finished 4th or 6th I'm with FK on this one. I think the primary purpose of having all the "finalists" released for every award is that it gives something for TV wonks on the MLB network to discuss on a weekday in January when only mental patients are watching baseball talk programming.
  18. Seems gimmicky and dumb, kinda Wilponian. I thought we moved on... $40 parking hahaha.... We paid it this past August. I found it funny that I was able to secure three upper deck seats for a weekday matinee for $22 total, including fees, but it cost nearly twice that to park. I asked the attendant, too - "wasn't it just $20 super recently?" My response was "Yep, last year in fact," offered up in a tone suggesting that this exchange had been repeated many times over the course of the summer.

  21. I had Bob Feller for my sub 3 ERA for CLE and realized I couldn't name any other player who only ever played for that team. So I was done for
  22. As was probably the case for lots of kids growing up in NYC in the 1950's, Mickey Mantle was my dad's favorite player.
  23. Fairly easy grid today though my rarity scores are poor. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 200 9/9: Rarity: 219 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 ATL/200H - Hank Aaron 36 ATL/200K - Smoltz 37 ATL/200W - Glavine 30 LAD/200H - Jackie Robinson 28 LAD/200K - Kershaw 35 LAD/200W - Greinke 4 PHL/200H - Chuck Klein 2 PHL/200K - Zach Wheeler 12 PHL/200W - Halladay 35
  24. Ugh, hate these damn Phillies.
  25. I wouldn't normally expect to get the whole grid when all 9 boxes are two team combos but I got it today. ⚾️ Immaculate Grid 197 9/9: Rarity: 83 IMMACULATE! 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 BOS/LAD - Nomar Garciaparra 4% BOS/ATL - Babe Ruth 9% BOS/OAK - Rickey Henderson 6% DET/LAD - Max Scherzer 28% DET/ATL - Octavio Dotel 2% DET/OAK - Ty Cobb 7% CHC/LAD - Bill Buckner 2% CHC/ATL - Greg Maddux 24% CHC/OAK - Mike Morgan 0.6%
