  1. Can we find a toe donor somewhere?
  2. Hey, rookie! Guess what? When you're 1-for-18 in your major league career, you do whatever your manager damn well wants you to do. If he wants you to take a two hour bus ride to Winter Haven, you offer to ride shotgun. If he wants you to polish Julio Franco's walker, you ask Mr. Franco what his favorite kind of silver polish is. If he wants double meat on his sandwich, you get him double meat. Jeez. I've been 30 only a few hours and I'm already a grouchy old man.
  3. It's an IGT from the future! (Who's up 7-0? Good guys or bad guys?)
  4. I dislike Bonds as much as the next guy, but I still don't think anything comes of this. "Proof" or not, did he break any MLB rules? Not at the time, he didn't. I'd say that until there's a positive test, there won't be any backlash. Not to say his records aren't tainted; but what I'm saying is that we already "knew" they were tainted, even though we didn't have any proof. What will be interesting will be how MLB handles #715, should he get that far. It would probably be best for him to just take his bat and ball and Paula Abdul wig and go home and be with his family.
  5. "Passion," of course, roidheadspeak for "roids."
  6. Yawn. Mike Francesa was actually right; this is a non-story. It's nothing we don't already "know," and unless Bonds and the Giants show up to Shea this summer and only 15,000 people come out to the games, this doesn't matter. He's still going to sell tickets, even if it's because he's a freakshow who people want to boo.
  7. ]03/07/2006 5:36 PM ETMets make roster cutsThe New York Mets today re-assigned the following players to minor league camp: righthanded pitchers Philip Humber, Matt Lindstrom, Rafael Cova, Jeremy Hill and Jason Scobie; catchers Jesus Flores, Drew Butera, Andy Wilson and Aaron Hathaway; and infielder Brett Harper.And... that answers that question. Sorry you didn't get into any games, son; maybe next year.
  8. Or, if you prefer, the BP jersey:
  9. ="Yancy Street Gang"]You don't want the ghost of Kirby Puckett following you into restrooms, for example. But if you don't believe in ghosts it shouldn't be a concern. Funny that you should mention that; the ghost of Don Knotts stopped by my office this morning, thanking me for remembering his groundbreaking work work on "Scooby Doo."
  10. He got an AB for Oakland in '05 and sucked there too, striking out. He's the best catcher the DR could find? I thought they were a powerhouse.
  11. Who the heck is A Castillo catching for the DR? Is that the great ex-Met Alberto Castillo?
  12. I'll keep Matty in the fold for one more season... I thought he was in camp, but he hasn't pitched yet. I'll poke around and see if I can find him.
  13. I will root for Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez and Roger Clemens on the 38th of Neveruary.
  14. (sigh) Do I have to do everything around here?
  15. Wow, that sucks. Tough situation, Kirby. Kinda of a borderline Hall of Famer, but a beloved legend in Minnesota. Then came the glaucoma or whatever it was, followed by some sort of sexual misconduct allegations of some kind, IIRC. A very bizarre, star-crossed 44 years. Wish he could have gotten more out of life.
  16. Centerfield wrote: Did anyone else cringe when Phillips compared Pedro's toe to Barry's knee? I cringe every time Phillips speaks. Centerfield wrote: What is this about Delgado's elbow? Why did we not hear about it before? If it's that serious, why is he going to Puerto Rico instead of the Mets trainer's examing table? They made it seem like no big deal. It might have just come up in the last day or so. They way they told it, he should be ready to go. I suppose we'll see.
  17. They spelled Yankees wrong. Classic.
  18. And Lastings Milledge also made a nice catch in left field. (Sorry. Didn't want to feel left out.)
  19. All Mets, all day. A little practice for SNY.
  20. Steve Phillips interviewing Omar Minaya. Yikes. Great backhanded stop and throw from the shortstop hole by #87.
  21. Hey, CF went all the way to Latvia just because someone suggested it.
  22. And indeed, that's exactly what it is.
  23. Hey, check out this cool limited edition 2006 Topps card I pulled from a pack today!
  24. The Coleman family, Choo Choo and Vince. (Just kidding.)
  25. I hate when that happens! Someone clicks on to Page 2 now and thinks "What do moose balls have to do with David Wright and Mr. Koo?" Of course, perhaps that's part of the fun.
