SLACKISH REACTION: The Mets are out to destroy baseball. A report from Mark Carig suggests that the Mets will only let their starters (other than Thor and JDG the true ace) go twice through the order. That means three days of Extreme Bullpenning. No thanks.
The Yankees are going to start some games at 6:35 in April. Hooray! Hopefully the Mets switch to all 6:35 games but they won’t.
The USWNT had a surprising result, drawing Canada 1-1. I didn’t see any of this game because US Soccer is growing the sport with young girls by playing at 10pm.
NOT LINKING: COULD Jay Bruce return to the Mets? You know I love COULD articles. Sure, he COULD. Lots of things COULD happen. The Mets COULD trade for Giancarlo Stanton! Anyway the Worldwide Leader is wasting your time with this.
BRYAN SHAW is apparently a major leaguer and the Mets COULD have interest in him. He seems to be a relief pitcher. Whatever.
Someone named DANIEL MURPHY won the Silver Slugger Award for the second year in a row. Hmmm.
Jason Fry and I did an episode of I’d Just As Soon Kiss A Mookiee, our podcast about Star Wars and the Mets (as two distinct topics). I wish that we had known about the new Star Wars Trilogy before we hit record…oh well. Anyway the Mets stuff starts at the 14 minute mark.
