1) It might actually go above 65 degrees tomorrow
2) It might actually be sunny
3) And I might actually be able to swim one last time. It's been a shitty summer.

Who cares bowl indeed?

Have they called up anybody who needs a cup of coffee yet?

They called up recent acquirees Jamie Callahan and Jacob Rhame in time for both of them to debut in game one of Saturday's double header. Supposedly Terry recently reported his shock that neither had ever (ever!) pitched on consecutive days in the minors, despite both being on the relief track for several years, and each coming out of different organizations.

Expect a McGowan return soon enough. Las Vegas' season ends tomorrow, and they should have two open roster slots, should they want to add any non-roster players.

Not that yesterday was entirely his fault but Flexy probably isn't ready to beat major league teams. I think its Mickey Jannis time

33 combined HRs this season for that starting lineup, from a team that STILL leads the NL in HRs* and could have easily had four guys in their everyday lineup with 30+ each




* are actually one behind the Cubs now

Big ass-kicking going on, Montero pitching and it's not us getting kicked!

The remaining senior Mets started the attack and now the novices are getting their game on.

Reyes goes first to third on a groundout, proving that baseball is still fun even when it doesn't matter.

Tough play for Aoki, being from the other side of the world he's used to seeing the sun from a completely different angle.

I don't know what Montero is doing differently -- but don't stop!!!

An effective Montero in 2018 would go a long way towards solving the Mets' problems.

Maybe stiffening up during that long inning.

I like 10-0 more than 10-5.

A LOT more.

Re: IGT 9/4 Phils at Mets in the Who Cares Bowl

Not just 12 different cleanup hitters this year (as was being discussed by Gary & Ron) but they've had one (or more) from each of the positions (including DH) except for SS & P
