Very grateful for both the Rangers and the Knicks for helping me stay away from the Mets as much as possible lmfao.

It’s so depressing. Are they just punting this season?

Also love Edwin Diaz paying homage to former Mets legend Hansel Robles by pointing up for a pop fly on a ball that left the stadium lmfao

When the Mets say the concern is low, you just know the guy died.

Same shit with the Yankees.

Pretty much.

Wonder if they're actually going to trade Alonso.

Should have done it already tbh.

On one hand our player of the now Frank Lindor is rocking a sparkling .616 OPS.

Luckily our player of the future Brett Baty is sporting a .611 OPS.

Luis Gil has the lowest BAA in baseball.

Going to LOL when they mental gymnastics him out of the rotation when Cole is ready to go.

Aaron Judge is still pretty good? I'll hang up and listen.

PS: 18 game hitting streak for Volpe. Keep getting on base for SotoJud.

Since 2008, the Rays have the 3rd highest winning % in MLB.

Should have retired 3 decades ago

What is the best MLB outfield ever? If we include All-Star teams, I'll take that one. If not, the 1961 Yankees with Mantle, Maris, and Berra is my favorite. The 2024 NYY's is pretty good though. If you put Verdugo at DH and Stanton in the OF, Judge, Soto, and Stanton have a career average OPS+ of 153.67 which is higher than the individual career OPS+s of Shohei Ohtani, Honus Wagner, and Jeff Bagwell!

When did Yogi Berra play the outfield?

When did Yogi Berra play the outfield?

Towards the end of his career when Elston Howard took over for him behind the plate.Howard came up as an outfielder/catcher and took over for Berra behind the plate in 60
