  1. Will be interesting to see, but my guess is that the new Mets people don’t care what his medical records say.
  2. hmm… let’s see.. I was really high on Alex Meyer. I thought he should have been called up sooner, and that he didn’t get the breaks other guys get. However, he was with two teams in MLB and could not stick; talent would have won out at some point. As for the current teams… I was also wrong about Caleb Thielbar. He was a guy in a group of guys (Thorpe, Smeltzer) who I thought were easy cuts from the 40 man. There was the Rule 5 we lost Baddoo and Wells. I don’t know if I would trust Thielbar in Yankees Stadium but he’s certainly capable of getting some big outs. Also wrong about Kirilloff in that I did not think he would be as potentially special as he is—he is a truly natural hitter and pretty solid at first base. I figured him to be a good hitter and defensive liability. I hope he can make a full recovery. I also think Luis Arraez needs to be inked at second base and leadoff. Every day, set it and forget it. But other posters see it differently, that bouncing him around (my phrasing) works just fine. I don’t know how you prove which approach is right and which one isn’t.
  3. We have heard “don’t trade Kepler when his value is at a low point” plenty of times in the last 18 months. Now as of today, with the Gallo signing, we have two starting right fielders. So, yeah. Follow up: so on double checking, it looks like Gallo has played a lot of left, too. At bats taken away from younger players? Or “you can never have too many good players”? I agree with you @Sherry Cerny that dealings Urshela was a huge disappointment, for the reasons you stated.
  4. 33-0 half. Man, this comeback is going to stand in the record book for a long time.
  5. I feel bad for Matty Ice, the QB already wearing the biggest Super Bowl collapse now finds himself on the field for this collapse.
  6. Scotch tape, ya mean? ? It’s time to patch this offseason back together!
  7. Correa gets 13/350 and Swanson gets 7/177. That’s basically half the contract. No way in my opinion is Correa twice as valuable as Swanson. I do value Swanson‘s ability to stay healthy and am just not sold on Correa being a top 5 player.
  8. One of the many great things about this win, is that you know there are die hard fans who gave up on the game and still don’t know the outcome.
  9. Well your post-game euphoria lasted all of four minutes lol
  10. Sure, the Colts would have had a short field and great chance to win, but the Vikings should have won the division even with a loss today.
  11. I was thinking attempt the FG. I did not want a punt plus a long Colts drive to burn the clock.
  12. So our shortstop will be a concept called Best Efforts. Can I just shorten it to ‘E’ in the scorebook when a ground ball is hit there?
  13. Well, if you look at his stat lines year over year, Gallo is a "good in odd-numbered years" type of player. #analytics
  14. Dodged a bullet, though not for lack of trying. Lewis or Lee will be putting up fairly comparable numbers in a few years.
