seawolf17 replied to Vic Sage's topic in New York Mets Talk
That actually makes some sense, because if Ruth doesn't have it that day and you have to replace him, you don't want someone who can't hit in the middle of your lineup. (Unless they just moved him to the outfield after taking him out.) -
That's why you never leave a game, kids.

Not the long term answer maybe, but I'm willing to try and find out how long. If that's the question then they should play Bartolo Colon at short.

This was NOT at all how I planned it, fellas.

According to this 2003 report, 35 fatalities had occurred to that date at major and minor league ballparks since 1900, though only five are "ball related." those ball-related ones are probably people lunching for balls...over the edge of the upper deck. Still probably the scariest thing I've ever seen in person.

If only there was some organized activity going on on the field that people could watch!

Holy moley. Two inches and that guy is dead.

Edgy MD wrote: Amazin' how people still call Mariano Rivera the classiest guy to ever class up a classy classics department, even as he emerges from retirement to throw a former teammate (and alleged friend) under the bus --- for no reason other than to sell a few books, I guess. Better that then throwing him into the pool, I suppose. Robinson Cano played every game for seven years for the Yankees, with a 128 OPS+. Now he's a dog? FUCK THAT. God, I hate that fucking team and everything about them. -
Nope. Still conflicted. I'm going to do what I always do, which is root for eight shutout innings from TK and then a crapton of Met runs in the ninth off the pen.

So very conflicted about this game.

So as we're battling it out in south Florida, Atlanta host the (currently .500) Cardinals, Philly welcomes the Jays, Nationals get the Dodgers in DC This a serious "make a statement" week. Need at least four of these six.

I want him to miss the Hall of Fame by three votes his first time. Well, I want that to happen every time. But at least the first time.

Rickey Henderson and Mark Carreon are the only two I know, and neither of them made it up that early.

The only home Mets jersey I have is one of the ones with the tail. I don't wear it so much. I stick to the road grey, even at Citi Field.

I believe every stolen base gives you .25 WAR, because WAR is a pretty old-school stat.
