SLACKISH REACTION ORIGINAL VERSION: Baseball is boring. I know that that game was supposed to be what it’s all about. Two Aces facing each other. Meaningful games in September. And yet I was bored. That’s the Gary/Ron booth for you. Search your feelings you know it to be true. Instead of slogging through until 10pm I bailed at 9:15 when the Mets were tip 5-1 or 5-3 or something I don’t even remember and went and watched Chappelle on Netflix. The worst part of baseball is the baseball.
SLACKISH REACTION NEW VERSION: Wait, what the hell happened? Whereas I didn’t write the above last night, wrote it just now, I usually have it kind of written in my head. I in no way excepted to see an 11-10 final, or a 7 spot in the Bottom of the 9th. YIKES!!! I’ll let everyone else write about the bullpen and stuff. Not my beat. Besides, the worst part of baseball is the baseball.
The Mets are 5 games out of the Wild Card
A reminder that today’s game is on Youtube only (plus radio) because baseball hates us. Youtube reportedly asked SNY to borrow Ron Darling and the SNYs said no.
The Mets named Bryn Alderson, son of Sandy, as their scouting director.
The Mets and Thunder Pete Alonso did some kind of game used merch deal that feels creepy to me.
