Getting some mileage out of a posed, spring-training, low-angle, Topps-ready file foto brings a lot of dignity to TALL AT SHORT. We've already given the big prize to a Newsday memorial cover, but I'm going for this one too, in this round at least.

A clever (perhaps too obvious but clever) headline, a suitable subheadline, and a great action photo capturing a key moment in the season.

How is #3 and #7 not retired yet? lol

Still, I went with Circus.... sorry, Bud...

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

You can't be giving awards and retired numbers out everywhere you go. Jeez. Big moment in the season, captured on film, pretty unusual if not great headline. Easy choice

[Edgy MD]

My problem with PICADILLY CIRCUS is that, from both the headline and the photo, I get the idea that the Mets lost and lost embarrassingly. I have to get about nine words into the subhead before realizing that wasn't the case.
