SLACKISH REACTION: the media is continuing to be stupid writing about the first base “battle.” Dom is hitting, right? The Mets are cheap, right? So if Dom is hitting and the Mets are cheap, why would you accelerate Pete Alonso’s contract so that Dom can sit on the bench. Today’s nonsense is that he’s willing to play OF even though the Mets said earlier in the Spring that they weren’t doing that. Come on media, stop being willingly stupid.
Don’t worry, Wags will come out in a nice suit and explain to y’all that they want Pete to work on a few things blah blah and you can all nod and fawn over the new GM.
Speaking of the media willingly being stupid, ICYMI on Friday night there was a little rumbling because an aging raid host said there would be a Seaver statue. Some sites amplified this. Choose your sources wisely.
Newsday going with a more realistic version of the statue story which is that the statue is being CONSIDERED. So basically what I’ve been telling you, and basically the same the Mets Executives told me at the Queens Baseball Convention – they plan to do something.
You bitches know what day today is, right?
That’s right! TDKoala Returns at 4pm!
I haven’t watched any Spring Training yet, am I a bad person? Maybe the nice weather today will get me into it.
Monday 1:05 at Astros: MLBN
Tuesday 1:05 at Marlins: Miami Radio on the horrible MLB App
Wednesday 1:10pm vs Astros: SNY
I feel like there’s a great Carnac to be done here.
Great to catch up with @StevePhillipsGM today at BP. pic.twitter.com/HsP2Zbi9tu
