Tim Teufel was an alumnus of my high school and did a couple of signings as fund raisers for the school. The first time he brought Lee Mazzilli and Mookie Wilson with him. The next year Howard Johnson and (then still a Twin) Frank Viola. Teufel also helped out our basketball coach at practices.
I hate the schedule. The Tigers who need to gain ground on the Yankees in the Wild Card have to face Cleveland this week, while the Yankees get the sucky Orioles (who always seem to roll over and play dead vs. the Yankees).
Dickshot and MFS62 look a lot alike these days. Lawrence is pitching tonight because tonight is the night he throws the first no-hitter in Mets history.

On the bright side, this is the last time the Mets face the Phillies this season: Another Pollyanna-ic note: the 1986 Mets had trouble beating the 2nd place Phillies as well.
I do. Watch as the Phillies and the media build it up as death for the Mets. And then the Mets kick the Phillies ass from here to Timbuktu. All you nervous Nellies can quiver if you want but the Mets are still going to win the NL East and I think can take on any other team in the postseason. The only way they'll lose is if they screw up, and that can happen against any team.
