It's not the road for me, but I'll be in Section 138, short right field lower level, on Tuesday May 21 when the Mets play the Guardians. Anyone wants to come out to Cleveland and crash on my living room floor, be my guest. Literally.

DJ Stewart spinning the big hits!

Whatever else you can say about the Mets historically, there's a pretty high bar to being a top four that's one for the ages in Mets terms.

I'm traveling to my employer's world headquarters in Munich at the beginning of June for some meetings and decided to tack on a couple of vacation days in Prague beforehand. Anyone ever been there? Any off-the-beaten-path places to go? I have 2 1/2 days, and I figure the half day will just be spent ...

Not Olerud, then?

JD Martinez joining the team today. Possible moves to make room for him include shipping DJ Stewart to Syracuse or, more likely, DFAing ZR Short. https://links.mlb.mlbemail.com/e/evib?_t=c632e003a756446c956a8e0347d00d08&_m=6c546504a9b34de38e62ff5dba47651c&_e=Bjs8vDe9mupwACUySyTjrfo0WF1ymuvZ1...

The 1995 card would have somebody's opinion about who should have been MVP in 1994, no? Not that I remember either of those seasons well enough to tell the difference.

I'll guess that they're referring to John Olerud, coming off that season when he flirted with .400 as a Blue Jay.

His neighbor could afford a gardener? I'm going to go with a son of a major leaguer. Pre-steroid Barry Bonds of the Pittsburgh Pirates?

Rheal Cormier

Oops...never a Met. I could have sworn he was a late season waiver wire pickup one season.

One more hit today and Lindor is off the interstate.

Edgy speaks, the Mets listen.

Of those two alternatives, I think you got the better one.

Coincidentally this afternoon my hubby and I went shopping at a little town nearby where there’s a bunch of Amish stores and we stopped for lunch at the ‘Twilite Diner’ Is that the one just off I-80, exit 185? I stop there sometimes when I'm driving between Cleveland and the NYC area. Now, back to ...

Wilmer

Lots of Willies in the game, but if you just say "Willie", I think everyone would know who you meant.

Hank.

If I just heard "Hank" without context, I'd have to ask whether you meant Aaron or Greenberg, even if Aaron was clearly the best Hank.

Once you show that guy your throat, it's over. You think you're still in the game, but you're already dead.

Thanks, all.

Last time I had a start this good I wound up busting, so at least there's that.

There are 4s where it takes about 10 seconds to get there. Then there are 4s that you stare at, put aside, stare at some more, then somehow come up with it.

Davey Lopes

OE: I somehow read the question as looking for hits, not home runs, and was thinking "WTF? Eric Karros?" But Lopes actually did have some power and might pop up in the top 6 anyway.
