I am in fact suggesting Conforto for center. It's not ideal, and you'd want to bring Pillar defensively later in the game, but for a team that NEEDS more offense, you can't just not play Davis. they don't have that luxury. Of course with Nimmo out, you need TWO non-Conforto outfielders anyway. So we're probably stuck with Pillar, but Davis needs to be in there way more than he has been. Rojas had been liberally sitting Conforto too, which ain't great, unless there's something we don't know (lingering Covid fatigue or something)

Thanks for listening. Surprised three middle aged white guys from the NYC area all sound roughly the same. We've typically wandering off into number discussion at the beginning as sort of an ice breaker, but I guess we skipped it. Baez is the current Met wearing #23. This is the current incarnation of Botty, but I'm still working on it. [attachment=0]Botty.png[/attachment]

That's an aggressive no-comment on Scott for sure. Read something in the Athletic today, forgot by who, that suggested he was gone too. Whether or not it is a 'criminal case' shouldn't really matter as to what the Mets do with him, but I guess they don't want to commit and then have to backtrack if more comes out and they had kept him. Truthfully Sandy needs to go and it should start soon. Making the playoffs probably matters for Rojas, but I can't see how they retain him. I think Sandy's comments were just to sort of say "we have confidence in him right now" just to avoid drama as the playoffs are still in play. But that's always been Sandy's MO. Saying nothing as much as possible, and his quote about not making the 'mistake' of saying he was going to hire a baseball president guy last year as if THAT was what the problem was.

They're playing Smith out there, who's come along a little bit, but not enough and he also doesn't hit. You could spot sit Báez, though the drop-off from Davis to him isn't as stark as to Pillar or Smith or McNeil. It's working okay against these garbage teams, but the Mets desperately need the added offense. But yes, some of this is a product of not having the foresight to play Davis in LF in the minors when he was rehabbing this injury. Or, you know, signing Springer.

J.D. Davis? WHERE ARE YOU Who do you want to sit? Villar? Baez? Lindor? McNeil, and put Davis in left? Pillar, and put Conforto in center? Suggestions please. specifics io the podcast: https://www.barleyprose.com/podcast/mets-on-tap-episode-23/https://www.barleyprose.com/podcast/mets-on-tap-episode-23/ but essentially, yeah, put Davis in left and figure it out. The only player on the Mets with a higher wRC+ is Nimmo and we just basically lost him.

Here's a timely bump. We've just posted our 23rd episode (aka "The Bernard Gilkey Episode") of the Mets on Tap podcast, brought to you by the fine folks at barleyprose.com (myself, Ceetar, ABNS and Seawolf17 speficially), talking Mets baseball and beer consumption. Like there are any two other things that go as well together. We record these every week (on Tuesdays most times) and discuss topical stuff with a lot of witty banter. Trust me it's witty as fuck! https://www.barleyprose.com/podcast/mets-on-tap-episode-23/Listen and subscribe here. 24 if you count the episode our AI mascot did herself, but we probably shouldn't count that one.

Ceetar replied to G-Fafif's topic in Archived Game Threads
sure, sit J.D. Davis again, that makes sense. -
=ashie62 post_id=76365 time=1630624841 user_id=90] He was bombed. Closed out a bar and crapped out on his way to the Tappen Zee.

Only time I've seen a check in the last like 10 years is leaving the wineries on Long Island at closing time. And that's more NIMBY stuff anyway. Sometimes outside like, Jones Beach concerns or things like that.
-
does "Tacked on traffic violations so the city can get some $$$$" count as new details? Those are merely traffic violations, he'll just pay 'em off unless the prosecutor wants to punish him.
-
also driving should be illegal by humans. give it over to the machines.

"goes to see if he can find which hookers were working white plains monday"
-
yes, but a hooker with or without other Mets employees? Hookers don't add to the crime, nor do actual drugs. that stuff should be legal. It's the dwi that's the crime and we know that part, we just need to know if Cohen liquored him up and sent him on his way like that.
-
someone find out where he lives, and we can get a google map search of "along the route"
-
It's not a criminal trial. He may never actually see a courtroom. It's not like they're going to piece together his day and put up evidence. His whereabouts or how he got to that intersection are not even relevant. At best, you'd get a "were you under the influence?" "no" "Cop, was he under the influence?" "he failed the sobriety test, could not walk a straight line, etc" Court finds in favor of the city of white plains. $1000, license revoked for 6 months. NEXT. Any nobody really knows who the hell this guy is, so while it's possible, it's unlikely some random bartender is gonna be like "yeah, Scott was here, drinking heavily!" And even if he did, so what? he was drinking, we already kind of suspect that. If it's anything illicit, even less likely they're gonna come out and be like "yeah, that dude was doing meth with me!" (seems unlikely it was a simulant of course) If it happened with the Mets/Cohen, we'll probably find out something more eventually though.

Daddy issues is Gin, Italicus (bergamot liquor), Basil and Citrus. it's described as 'bright, snappy" and will run you $34 for two, plus tip.

Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: What an idiot. Has the story of the missing 7 hours been told yet? Unless he WAS actually still with Cohen and partying and other players/people saw him there, we probably won't hear about where he decided to spend that time. Asleep at an actual intersection probably means he wasn't asleep for hours or anything. I don't see any strip clubs in the area (anyone know where he lives? was this like, the last 5 blocks? because otherwise seems unlikely he'd be on that street without having been local.) There's a "speakeasy" real close to where he was snoozing. open until 4. Pretty sweet cocktail list, with fun names like purple panties(gin, butterfly pea blossom, elderflower, lemon, prosecco), well slapped arse, daddy issues, grounds for divorce, filthy animal.. Of course, it could've easily been something more illicit and underground. Booze is the Occam's Razor answer, but we only know he failed the field sobriety test.
-
previous job? It hasn't even been a year!
-
I guess it depends how long he was asleep. also where he lives, if that's even "on the way" home seems unlikely.
-
The Tony La Russa special. Who's managing the White Sox.
-
i dunno about 'safe to say' he's gonna lose his license for 6 months, and that's probably it, legally. I mean, he might've been gone anyway, but baseball doesn't typically care about this stuff.
-
of course, I'm sure that ended before 4am. Also, we're only assuming this was booze. It could've been anything.
