    I really don't know that I care who wins this series. I guess I know more Guardians fans than Rays fans, but either way, it's a good story.

    That was when a douchebag in right field tried to literally rip Mookie Betts' arm off his body.

    What? Our Quality Assurance coach sucked? But he assured so much quality this season!

    You know, looking at the roster... get us an ace, three or four bullpen arms, a first baseman, a second baseman, and a third baseman, and I think we've got a team that could win 120 games.

    And yet, you can ALSO get away with that if everyone else around you can hit, and that is the case this year for his team.

    Agree. I want something like a Brewers/Rays WS, but we're going to get something like Dodgers/Yanks again. Barf.

    That's precisely it. I obviously acknowledge what Seaver meant (and means) to the Mets, it's just that by 1982 when I found baseball, he was just another old guy to me, like Steve Carlton or Jim Kaat. Tom Seaver doesn't even make the 25-man roster of my FAVORITE Mets. My favorite Mets are all guys I watched.

    Harrison Bader was on the 2024 team, and was a Cardinal forever and they used to win the Central every year. He's gotta be on the list.

    I think it'll always be Mookie for me. My card collection is heavy on Kevin McReynolds and Keith Hernandez, but if I had to pick one and only one, it's Mookie.

    Olerud won the 92 and 93 World Series in Toronto. He's gotta be up there.

    The king of Smithtown, Frank Catalanotto.

    Zeile?

    Plus, if a guy isn't getting ABs, it's not like a different guy would automatically be getting more ABs. There are only so many to go around. I agree on the third catcher; it's not like the S-Mets are doing anything anyway, so you might as well bring up Senger.

    I voted for Williams, reluctantly. I mean, Diaz was shit his first year here and that one worked out okay.

    Five teams within two games of the second-half International League title going into the final weekend, too.

    One side effect of this roster churn is that we have had so many forgettable guys. Adding Cameron Weston to my list, Google Sheets tried to auto-fill it with "Cameron Maybin," and I was like "Maybin's never been a Met." Sure enough, 2021. And he got more ABs than Johneshwy Fargas, Khalil Lee, Wilfredo Tovar, Chance Sicso, and Jake Hager, all of whom I *do* remember as Mets. Weird.

    Toronto fans would like Vlad Junior to borrow whatever Tatis Junior is taking, although at least he *finally* hit his first home run in Toronto last weekend.
  20. seawolf17
    So we now have *two* potential new Mets on the roster (Weston and Cairo). If they both get into games, that will make 2026 the third-most newMetliest season ever. 1962: 45 new Mets (obviously) 2021: 42 1967: 35 2025: 35 2023: 34 2024: 34 2026: 34 I'd be very curious to see if other MLB clubs have a similar situation, where they've used more *new* players in the last few years than ever before.
  21. seawolf17
    Right? You want to figure Lindor and Soto will be Lindor and Soto (providing they stay healthy), and I'll take another .230/.305/.710 season from Alvarez and Torrens with 24 home runs behind the plate. But everyone else is a crapshoot. Ewing and Benge could be on the PCA track, or they could be Lastings Milledge. We have no first baseman. Semien has been our worst everyday player. Bichette will be fine if he stays, but why would he?
  22. seawolf17
    It's one of my favorite things about him. You *have* to throw him strikes, but he's also likely to hit those strikes to the moon.
  23. seawolf17
    We're going to lose these four games by a combined score of like 82-6.
  24. seawolf17
    Pete coming back and wrecking us is so Mets. This fuckin' team, man. You don't want us to cheer? Then sign the guys we want to cheer for. 1-0 Alonsos.
  25. seawolf17
    Since this is now concluded, I'm still weirded out by the old "projected" seasons on this list. I mean, I get what those lines are saying, but they're not real and that bothers me as a stats nerd. Ewing and Benge are real - they're projected to be where they are. But it feels janky to "project" something that is an actual impossibility in the context of a definitive statistical ranking.
