Mets By The Numbers: No longer picky about whom they interview.
Mets By The Numbers: No longer picky about whom they interview. While I'm not crazy about the concept of Barry Bonds joining the Mets, I will confess a fondness for Will Ferrell movies and anything pertaining to the ABA, so when Semi-Pro dribbled into my neighborhood cineplex, I was there quicker than you can say Bill Melchionni. Unless you share the same two weaknesses, it's a flick […] Moises Alou is 41 years old. In baseball terms that's old, but age is never the issue with Moises in a couple of different ways. He will always have the bat speed of a 25-year-old and the physical resilience of a 55-year-old — a 55-year-old leper in a minefield. He's out until May, and if you […] Welcome to Flashback Friday: Tales From The Log, a final-season tribute to Shea Stadium as viewed primarily through the prism of what I have seen there for myself, namely 358 regular-season and 13 postseason games to date. The Log records the numbers. The Tales tell the stories. 4/29/81 W Pittsburgh 0-2 Roberts 1 4-11 […] Alou is heading to New York for an MRI (which stands for Moises Regularly Injured). Beltran hasn't played and is worried. Church failed to successfully cross paths with Marlon Anderson. Anybody seen Endy? We need some outfielders besides Brady Clark and Brooklyn's Own Angel Pagan, we really do. Well, how about these? Gilkey in left, Johnson in […] Get the Mets to a New York hospital. My goodness: If it's not Ryan Church wearing sunglasses indoors because of a concussion, it's Ruben Gotay gimping about on crutches. Read this morning that in order to avoid some chronic problem El Duque is scrapping his leg kick, which is a bit like hearing BMW is taking […] One afternoon five years ago, I'm walking by a desk occupied by a writer for the magazine I was editing in those days. “Hey,” the writer asks amid several sheets of legal pad paper (none of which have anything to do with the magazine we're supposed to be producing), “which uniform number would you guess has […] Welcome to Flashback Friday: Tales From The Log, a final-season tribute to Shea Stadium as viewed primarily through the prism of what I have seen there for myself, namely 358 regular-season and 13 postseason games to date. The Log records the numbers. The Tales tell the stories. 8/21/98 (1st) F St. Louis 6-5 Nomo […] …and read this. It is Mets By The Numbers' q&a (third part of a three-part series) with longtime beat writer Marty Noble, formerly of Newsday, now with mlb.com. It may be the best and most eclectic history of the New York Mets ever recorded. Kudos to mbtn and its founder, Jon Springer, on beginning a tenth […] Now that Shawn Green has let it be known he won’t be playing baseball for a living any longer, I can let it be known I rooted just a little extra harder for Shawn Green. Not to the point that it clouded my judgment on his decreased offensive output, his limited mobility, his disappearance from the runs […] |
