Made some good plays. He didn't suck.

Too young. RIP Mr. Williams. [fimg=300:1ikpyx3h]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-IYND42cEkOM/UxrXnO9-dCI/AAAAAAAANZ4/5bj7AS9A-Cs/s576/72opcWILLIAMS-z14.png[/fimg:1ikpyx3h]

I always thought the A.C. Surf logo was pretty kool when the team debuted. No laid back bears, animals or flying fish. Just the facts mam. Then they changed it up, only just a few years later.

I got one of these too. I guess that means Im an MLB Insider. I found this: http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/eye-on-baseball/24992568/rob-manfred-says-hes-open-to-banning-extreme-defensive-shifts What a stupid idea! I agree Grimm. Shifts are part of the game. Sometimes they help, sometimes they burn ya. Don't players today have the ability to just poke it the other way?

REAL Offseason Shenanigans (spit from Offseason Shenanigans)

Does this go here? Strawberry's deferred compensation auctioned for $1.3M The minimum bid was $550,000. ESPN, which first reported the results, said the buyer will get a monthly check from the Mets for $8,891.82 over the next 18-plus years. Interesting stuff. https://www.google.com/search?q=strawberry+deferred+contract&newwindow=1&hl=en&biw=1536&bih=741&site=imghp&source=lnms&sa=X&ei=hNrBVH6P5LAE1cOBuA0&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAA&dpr=1.25

It might not help the team but imagine having 1.5 million pixels to work with.

They're pushing envelope of what's permissible in terms of sponsored offseason workouts. Almost seems like there's penalty for not attending WTF does that mean? It almost seems like Rubin is an idiot. In the article opening the thread Jeff Wilpon says: "They believe in this program. It�s very satisfying to see the buy-in because I didn�t push this."
-
Nice Post article. It pumped me up a lil bit. It said a slew of Mets were doing the workout but no mention of Grandy.

What's this I'm reading about Mr Flynn driving the Beatles? Is it true he drove the armored car from the heliport to Shea? This is news to me.

Pete's always been in my hall of fame.

Read what Madden had to say after the votes were in. Maybe I'm wrong, but if he's going to use what some anonymous player said about Piazza using steroids, he's got to name that player. I mean, if a player said something to him and he kept it to himself, and it privately influenced his choices, fine. But if he's going to say that a player told him Mike was using, and publicly make that his excuse for not voting for him, he's should reveal that source so the person can be interviewed by others about the validity of his claim. He's a reporter for chriesake.

Glad you could resolve the issue so quickly. I'll have to work it into the next ad. Only Metsfan board shut down by the feds!

Centerfield wrote: Lots of strange things going on: 1. Clemens gets four more votes than Bonds. 2. Someone voted for Darin Erstad. 3. 4 people voted for Troy Percival. Once you do something as stupid as voting for Darin Erstad or Troy Percival, your right to vote should be revoked. Dumb system. Let me take that back, dumb writers. If I were the Mets, I'd retire Piazza's number this year anyway. And as part of the ceremony, I'd take select quotes from Marty Noble and illustrate the kind of idiots that are keeping Mike out of the HOF. Ugh. Disgraceful. I like the retired # idea.

bmfc1 wrote: I have the new Bill James Handbook and there are stats about replay. I thought that if Terry was good at one thing, it was knowing when to challenge but he was under .500 at that: he challenged 30 calls and 13 were overturned (43.3%). (By comparison, the high for challenges was 48 by the Rays and Blue Jays while the low was 26 by the Athletics.) Overall, 52.6% of the challenges were successful. Against the Mets, 20 calls were challenged and 12 were overturned so the Mets were +1 on challenges. The Nationals were first at +11 but then again, they had a great record so perhaps the replays were irrelevant. The Rangers were last at -9 and they had a poor record. Collins started off hot but tailed off. I did think he'd be over .500 though.
