ICYMI, an effing insane local baseball team is considering using Thor in the pen.
SLACKISH REACTION: Two straight games I caught none of, which is very odd for me (unless the Mets are out west). I had to drive to Boston at 6am yesterday, got home in the evening, and this morning was up at 6 and out the door at 6:30 – imagine if Gary Cohen had to do that? Anyway, I could tell from the linescore that the Mets sucked and then Googled “Mets” and saw that they did indeed suck.
Seems the manager didn’t like the effort he was getting. What the Mets need to do is hire some Head Coach type to work the clubhouse and dugout and get a good performance out of the roster.
I saw one of the newspapers is using Rapid Reaction now. Everyone should just call their sites Adam Rubin at this point.
Tonight is the Home Run Derby which is super-fun in person and super-lame on TV, but hopefully will be more watchable with Berman this year.
Nobody loves the All Star Game than I do, but even I am not excited this year since the only Met is our 4th outfielder, and last year no Mets got into the game somehow because somehow the manager didn’t put any Mets in.
ICYMI Citi Field is getting a brewery!
Unless there was some late game I missed (I am writing this Sunday night) the Mets are 12 games back and eight games under .500. I told you “the run” against the Giants and Phillies was bullshit.
It’s as if the heart and soul of this team plays for Washington now. You know deep down I am right.
Trade everyone, park the hurt pitchers, play the kids and fire everyone else.
