WIN WIN would have WON WON my vote if not for that column of mini headlines on the right side of the page.

I’m in the minority bloc on this one. Every time I look at the FRANTASTIC headline, I ask myself, “Who’s Fran?”
Hope for the best. Expect the Mets.

Phew. So glad to see deGrom's MRI came back clean. Hopefully he won't miss any time.

Perhaps FRANTASTICO! would have worked better.

LIN-SANITY!

MILES OF SMILES!

METS TRADE FOR ALL-STAR SHORTSTOP!

That last one is kind of catchy.

These are the covers related to the Lindor trade that didn't make it out of the first round, losing to FRANTASTIC!
