  1. We ain't buying no green bananas this winter. Perry, go get us Maximus!
  2. I like your take plus "Geico Caveman" is a great Marsh reference.
  3. Yeah, that is the definition of high-risk, high-reward. Hopefully we get rewarded and this encourages other FA's to bargain with us,
  4. That idea is insane. OF duty for Ohtani will impact his legs too much. Shohei is too valuable to us as a premier pitcher. We are extremely fortunate Ohtani was able to handle last year's DH workload by Maddon, the Mad Scientist.
  5. Adells's 2021 MLB improvement was very encouraging after the 2020 freshman pratfall. I foresee Adell producing a bigger impact than Marsh but value both players That said, I do love yelling "Captain Caveman" as Marsh runs the bases.
  6. ... and former El Dorado HS and Cal State Fullerton baseball and football player ...
  7. Maybe Coleman can change his first name to "Vel". Better name to hook on a big league roster.
  8. Okay @Inside Pitch, spill all the beans on the Jim shit show.
  9. The Mets will have two first-round draft picks in the 2022 draft–one is their original and the other is the pick they get for Kumar Rocker, their 2021 first-round pick, not coming to terms with the team. https://metsmerizedonline.com/2021/10/mets-2022-draft-position-set-in-stone.html/
  10. Edmonds natural talents were very evident, even to the casual fan. Sometimes his at bats could be frustrating to watch, Edmonds disinterested in performing well when offensive was needed. Wasn't bothered that Stoneman traded Edmonds but wondered why we got a poor return, all things considered. Thanks Blarg and others for your insights.
  11. Don McLean reminded us in '71
  12. Isn't AAV is used to for Luxury Tax computations? Backloading salaries inflates AAV while temporarily reducing payroll salaries. https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/competitive-balance-tax
