Good Looking Bobby Thomson New York Giants Jersey

If the Mets are insistent on wearing black, here’s another look that would be preferable to what they wear now.

Too bad these are out of stock or I would buy one.

I imagine Mr. Wilpon is not a fan of Mr. Thomson.   The man only hit the most famous home run in the history of the sport, for a National League team – why would he be mentioned at Citi Field?

Does MLB Interleague Play Really Boost Attendance? – The Daily Fix – WSJ

Here's a good one According to this, interleague play nets each team about 100 tickets sold One hundred

http://blogs.wsj.com/dailyfix/2009/07/08/the-count-does-interleague-play-really-boost-attendance/

My suggestion/compromise. Have one rivalry weekend a year and that's it. If you don't have a rival then you just play whoever (too bad). My friends and I did this in fantasy football for years. Fair? No. Fun? Yes.

So the Mets play the Yankees and Seattle plays the Rockies (too bad.)

Official Yankee Stadium Home Run Watch?

Really?  MLB.com has a page for the Home Run Watch?  As if it’s a good thing that the stadium is a lemon?

The Idea Of Trading Sheffield (Newsday)

Who would’ve thought….July 8th and we’re all entertaining realistic discussions of dismantling the team.
 
Unfortunately, trading Sheffield and Livan make lots of sense.
 
To me, giving Jon Niese 15 starts regardless of what happens makes a lot of sense too.
 
 
(Yes I see the Dykstra news…that’s not what I do around these parts.  I enjoy being crankypants but I don’t get into the various Shamsky/Dykstra/LoDuca personal life type stuff.)
 
I want Ollie to either throw a no-hitter or give up 9 in the first inning so we can all just release the pent up frustration.   Going 6 and giving up 4 runs is just boring.
