    As far as I can tell, he has one major problem: He's terrible at baseball.

    Eff Mariano AND Chipper Jones. Loved Biggio, though.

    I guess Miguel Cabrera could hit Yu Darvish, then. Six home run swings, all over the plate.

    Apparent actual image from the Royals game last night. http://larrybrownsports.com/blunder/bryce-hunter-mlb-graphic/188736 So confused.

    I love baseball table games. No Mets in it, but I loved this as a kid: And my friend and I played a crapload of Statis Pro: He was a Yankee fan, and I distinctly remember 1984 Jay Howell to be unhittable.

    Josh Satin is .300/.414/.475 in Vegas. I know he's not on the 40, which complicates the issue, but I'd rather try to sneak Lutz or Cowgill through waivers and give him a shot. Duda/Ankiel/Byrd isn't a great outfield, but it's not terrible.
  10. seawolf17
    Disagree. Duda's the second-best offensive weapon on this team. Maybe not much of a defender, but he's a usable piece.

    This would have made a great Sporcle quiz, and yes, I think the least guessed there would have been the ones you listed, and I would throw Jorgensen in there as well. Already is one. http://www.sporcle.com/games/PaulyVercillo/Mets_MLBManagers So it's only bad Mets teams that yield lots of managers, eh? I say Buck, Turner, Hawkins, and Ankiel.

    Who hasn't wanted to just bitchslap Victorino, though?

    Who the hell is Norm Sherry? You made him up.

I remember when you traded me the first time Saying this is it, I've had enough, 'cause like We haven't won a game in a month Now I'm, in a, pennant race. What? Then you come around again and say Baby, I miss you and I swear I'm gonna change Trust me, remember how you went and knocked down Shea I say, I hate you, we break up, you call me, I love you Oooh we called it off again last time But Oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you We are never ever ever getting back together We are never ever ever getting back together You go talk to Lozano talk To Choo then talk to me But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

    Well, you have to figure the money's going to be different. Choo's going to be looking in the $75M+ range over five+ years, whereas Beltran's probably more of a 2 years/$22M kind of package, I'd think. And Carlos has only OPS+ed less than 125 once in the past seven seasons. Beltran's closest B-R similarity score comparison: Andre Dawson. Choo's closest comparison: Bernard Gilkey.

    Okay, so "pass" is a bit strong. But that's a lot of money for a guy who's on the wrong side of 30, even though he'd obviously outhit our entire outfield.
  23. seawolf17
    Pass.

Then I forget what they look like, mostly, no offense to those cards. Your prime card years are your prime card years, however. That was how I started to get back into it about eight or nine years ago, but then once I started going down that rabbit hole...

    Except that Pete hadn't been a Red for several years by 1982.
