The Mets Police

Was watching the excellent Jack Ryan series and look what the Mets fans wear to Nationals games….

One of the coolest sites out there is JesseAkire.com.  You are probably familiar with his work as he churns out cool concepts for the ASG caps that are actually better than the actual ASG caps….and now he has turned his attention to Players Weekend.  He has a full set, but here’s the idea for the Mets version.

I like it – and I like the idea of an alternate name for the weekend, kind of like what the minors did this summer….

Good stuff.  Follow Jesse on Twitter.

SLACKISH REACTION:  Hooray the Mets won.  I didn’t see any of this one, and no they weren’t playing Toronto.

Seems like a pretty quiet day.  Hopefully Bob Woodward is working on a Mets book and someone from inside the Mets organization posts an anonymous letter (hey people inside the Mets, anonymous letters welcome!!!!)

I also welcome anonymous op-eds from insurance experts.  If you are an insurance expert within the Mets organization I really welcome your anonymous op-ed.

Completely unrelated to the above, David Wright will begin playing simulated games because he didn’t just play actual games for three weeks before the Mets sat him for a week to mess up his timing.

Other than that Virginia, it’s a quiet morning, and the beat will want their day off so expect a very quiet  DAY.

At least we know the Mets made it home safely.

Since it’s quiet let’s see how Net Negative Daniel Murphy is doing…

Daniel Murphy, who had yet to get a hit in the Brewers series, went 3-for-4, which included a home run to open up the scoring

Hmmm. Back you you Gare.

Meanwhile, in useless blogging….

NOT LINKING:  Holy cow the guys at AAIMBR went with “The Mets are heading back east” this morning.  74 writers and that’s what they come up with?  The newspaper has some sort of “what the Wilpons need to do” noise.  Yawn.

 

A nice tweet from the soon to be Former 51s.

To our #Mets Family & Friends…
Being a part of this farm system, this fandom, to see young prospects rise, and to wear the Orange & Blue… has been a true honor and an out of this world experience. TY for teaching us that Ya Gotta Believe, and we always will.#LGM👽⚾️🍎✌️ pic.twitter.com/khW5yosZFZ

But WHAT HAPPENS TO COSMO????!!!!

Hey S or S is catching on!

As y’all know there was no way I was watching a 10pm start (I didn’t even watch that one playoff game that started at 11pm a million years ago, GFY baseball for that one) – but Manny had my back.

That, my friends, is a total Trackwall. A Trackwall is when an announcer gets lazy and uses a phrase like to the track to the wall rather than try harder.

Verdict:  Sterling

How a home run should be called is like THIS!

Verdict: Scully
