Metfairy swayed me to the Oakland side during the Barry Zito days...LOL My AL loyalties bounce back and forth between Oakland and Boston

Oh thanks for the heads up...I'll be tuning in

No offense to Tom and Nancy Ahhh yes...I was a big Mazz fan myself. I wasn't a Seaver fan at that tender age either and I'll admit I was excited to land my other big crush in that trade..Doug Flynn.

Taken from: http://www.mycentraljersey.com/story/sports/mlb/mets/2017/05/11/mets-jeurys-familia-clot-shoulder-surgery-possible/101581384/ It's possible Familia could miss several months or even the rest of the season, according to examples provided by former Mets pitcher Dillon Gee, who stressed that each case is based on the location and the severity of the clot. Gee, who is now pitching with the Rangers' Class AAA affiliate Round Rock, has twice undergone surgeries for blood clots. In 2012 when he was with the Mets, Gee had no feeling in his arm for two days, and had a severe blood clot in his right arm pit. Gee had the option to take blood thinners but it would not have made much of a difference, and ultimately underwent surgery that was performed by Thompson. Gee said he was playing catch in about six weeks after the surgery, but did not return that season since he had the surgery in July and it didn't make sense to push it. "It's whatever the rate the artery heals at," Gee told The Record in a telephone interview. "That rehab was really like any other rehab. Let it recover and (get) back to normal." Last season while with Kansas City, Gee developed a blood clot near his collarbone, and this time underwent surgery for TOS, which is a more intensive recovery period. Harvey also underwent TOS surgery last July and missed the rest of that season. "The surgical options depends on where he's having his clots," Gee said.

I never cared from Harvey from day one. Oozes with arrogance. He's all about himself and not the team and more concerned with his um extracurricular activities. I tend to skip watching games he's pitching and tune in when the bullpen takes over. I really hope he gets and hope it gets done quickly.

Put a fork in this season..

1973 and I was a little girl as well, Cooby. I must confess my Dad was a Yuckee fan and up until '73, I watched Yuckee games with him. Then one fateful day I ventured into my brother's room (a diehard Met fan) and the rest is history...

Oh FFS 5-4 Miami

I've muted it...I'd rather watch with silence.

I was extremely disappointed. I found myself doing other things while it was which is never a good sign.

I am watching the game but it looks like a feed I cast to the TV from a PC, choppy etc. I noticed this a few games last season . I have checked other live sports channels and they are fine Sorry Irish...Optimum here. My feed is fine

Nice ovation for Colon

2-0!!!!

About freaking time!!! Congrats!!!!!

Edgy MD wrote: Something so cool about when a guy goes from the Yankees to the Mets. Especially now that the Mets have shed that noxious black hat habit. Yeah, maybe he has to prove he's not evil and all of that. But there is something about seeing him in the blue had with popping orange coming out of it after years in the colorless, joyless Yankee kit, that makes it look like he just got out of jail. I'm like, "Hey, look who got let out. Good for him. He looks pretty good considering." Seriously, who among you can deny that Carlos Beltran has looked like a convict for the last few years? I'm a huge fan of the black Mets hat! Especially since blue does not exist in my wardrobe!

I hope you stick around Yup..plan on sticking around..or at least poking my head in every now and then. Been away too long. I've always been proud to be a Mets fan. Win or lose, I've stuck by this team because I like this team! I'm not in it for the "rings", though it is a nice to see them get one every once in awhile. I'm tired of Yuckee fans rubbing the 27 rings garbage in my face. Having said all that, it was odd having support from random Yuckee strangers in the street. Not sure where the ride will go next year, but I'm there.

LOL...I just met the "Sax Man" Tim Cappello last weekend. Maybe that's a good omen.
