What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
Can I ask a difficult question? Did anyone actually like Basement Bertha? Yes Bill Gallo was great….but I never cared about that character AT ALL. You can send nasty letters to customer service @mediagoon on twitter lol.
I did like the Mets Magic campaign and want them to bring that back.
This guy Joe Torre seems like he’s really into the Mets. I bet if we ever want to honor fallen heroes he would be on board.
Did YOU save the day in Game 7 of the World Series? No, you did not. So you do not get to be the best #50. Sid does.
The greatest third-baseman of all-time, there is no doubt of Michael Jack Schmidt’s place in the Hall of Immortals.
For 18 years Schmidt was perhaps the most feared slugger in the National League. In 13 of his 15 full season he hit more than 30 homeruns. This may not sound like a lot today but back in the 70s and 80s, hitting 30 HRs actually meant something.
Schmidt wasn’t just a slugger though, but also one of the best defensive players of the time, earning 10 Gold Gloves.
Oh and did I mention 3 MVPs?
Without a doubt, Mike Schmidt is an Immortal.
For some background on what this is, check out the introduction post here.
The regular season is over, and there is a lot to be happy about!
Tom Seaver, the virtual Franchise, wins the Cy Young with 19 wins. Even in a video game nobody might ever win 20 again.
Tom also took home the MVP!!!! You’d think websites would talk more about Seaver and less about Matt Harvey.
The next time I head to the basement it will be the playoffs and the Ducks will play the winner of Red Sox-Rays in an old fashioned 10 game playoff bracket.
Tomorrow, we will see how the 2020 Mets did. They did not do well.
For two months, Justin Turner and his wife @court_with_a_k have been buying meals from family-owned LA restaurants and donating them to a non-profit. So far, they’ve helped the @LADreamCenter provide 600,000 meals!@redturn2 has a big ❤️.
