Mets are hiring Carlos Mendoza as their new manager. Came up through the Yankees organization.
To assuage our collective ego, I think it is fair to assume that it was a family decision by Counsel to stay close to home in Chicago.
The Mets swooped in on their second choice. Hopefully it’s a good one, but it is so hard to see him being better than Buck.
hitters gotta hit, pitchers gotta pitch
I heard enough of the name Mendoza this past season with regard to the Mets batting averages. :-(

YOU ARE SUSPENDED!

Whoa. Relax. It’s not like he said Tom Glavine wasn’t that bad or something truly horrible.
I didn't know self-deprecation was a suspendable offense. Then again, there's tons of evidence that just being ME is a suspendable offense.
Well, I'm waiting for someone to step up and get a hit with a runner on second. Please?

Gary with a Bunny’s shout-out in Game 1.
That's one down over the Braves. I think Teheran might be a short timer, though.

Fun game!
Teheran DFA'd today, Nostradamus.

it happened so fast I didn't get a chance to reply that I thought Butto was going to take Teheran's place.
This will be a fun season. Winning is nice, but I don't expect it to continue. I want to see who we really have. Do we have the 265/40 Alonso who deserves an extension or the 217/40 Alonso? A 270 McNeil who hits fly balls to the outfield or a 320 McNeil who hits singles all over? Did we find the catcher of the future or a 207 hitter? Baty looks good, and maybe some more kids will come up.

I am going to need to confer with Train of Thought, but I think this post is suspension-worthy.

Failure to believe!
I oughta slap you with a five-game suspension in honor of their FIVE GAME winning steak, but I am feeling benevolent.
YA GOTTA BELIEVE!
