I asked my 4-year-old son why he didn’t open any of his Christmas presents and he said “Dad, I don’t want to feel happiness until MLB owners restructure the service time system to make it equitable for players in their prime earning years.” I’m shaking and crying and throwing up
I cannot get over the fact that this just looks like two dudes that woke up at 1 pm after a sick Kappa Sig banger and decided to get a coffee and a BEC before ripping lax house for a darty at 3
MLB should be doing:
- Fastest Baserunner
- Pitch Accuracy
- Longest Long Toss
- Bunting Competition
In addition to the Home Run Derby. Would be the coolest of the sports skills competitions
Mets offseason:
- New Owner
- New President
- New GM
- Paid furloughed Citi Field workers
- James McCann
- Trevor May
- Francisco Lindor
- Carlos Carrasco
- Offered Citi Field as a vaccination center
Yankees offseason:
- Greg Allen
- Tyler Lyons
- Made DJ LeMahieu upset
Not mad at the Braves legally and smartly catching signs the old-fashioned way like most teams should be doing. Mad at James McCann for being a simpleton behind the plate
I asked my 4-year-old son why he didn’t open any of his Christmas presents and he said “Dad, I don’t want to feel happiness until MLB steps in and does something about the Dodgers unfairly upsetting the competitive balance of the league.” I’m shaking and crying and throwing up
Jacob deGrom tweaked his offseason lifting routine. He's intentionally dialing back his fastball a bit. And the Mets are taking things slowly with him leading up to Opening Day.
📰 Will it all work to keep deGrom healthy? So far, so good:
15 years ago today the Mets traded for Paul Lo Duca. He’s the best Mets catcher since Piazza and the key to one of the most electric Shea Stadium moments ever
Terry Collins won a pennant and helped a lot of the Mets core develop into key pieces, but his most important contribution might have been this conversation. Turned deGrom from an All-Star to an ace.
Hilarious that the Mets’ aces are such polar opposites. One of them disappears into the Florida backwoods every winter and hasn’t felt emotion since 1994 while the other nearly assassinated Rob Manfred and curses out the voices in his head when his fastball misses by a centimeter
The Mets should let the Angels outbid them for Trevor Bauer and then, as a token of appreciation and goodwill, the Angels should simply give the Mets Mike Trout
Happy Max Scherzer day!
Today, the Nationals will give Scherzer the first of his $15 million deferred payments that run until 2028.
This year, the Nats are paying Scherzer as much as Ronald Acuña Jr.’s full-season salary to pitch against them in the same division.
