I can't wait to hear Taylor Swift's concept album about Francisco Lindor.

1. The Mets record will be? 108-54
2. Where will The Mets finish in the NL East? Atop
3. Will The Mets make the playoffs (yes/no)? Totally
4. If so, how far will they advance and the number of games in their final round? World champs. They win the series 4 games to 1. The drama will be in the earlier rounds.
5. Who wins the World Series (can be the same answer a Q.4)? The New York Mets of Flushing.
6. How many home runs will Pete Alonso hit? 46

Hmm. Once again, I was simultaneously overly pessimistic and yet not pessimistic enough. If they sweep the Braves, I'll nail their record.


What a long strange year it's been.

I'm among several who did pretty well with the Pete Alonso home run total.

I saw my Mets record prediction and literally LOLed.
Hope for the best. Expect the Mets.

When you're a pessimist you are rarely disappointed.

I'm more embarrassed by picking the Padres to win it all. Their season went south more abruptly and less explicably.
