Unrelatedly, My computer has been a little spazzy for a while now and I'm hesitant to leave it on while I go on vacation this weekend, so @passanthalbot.bsky.social and @lovethemetsbot.bsky.social might be down until Tuesday night.

Legend has it that Phil Esposito eventually traded Tinordi because the kid didn’t bring an overcoat to a frigid Quebec City and Phil thought that was a sign of something that I’m still not sure what.

Nice. I think that if Vanilla Fudge, another great band from that era would have covered “Help” it probably would have sounded something like this.

“Billionaire” was how he was portrayed to us by both league and team sources.
First time I met him a few days later he said he was “not there yet” and not entirely comfortable with that categorization.
Little did we know, of course, but was a wild story to cover that season.

I will never forget asking him while we were in Tampa, shortly after he “took over” if he was making any progress towards a new building. Showing exasperation, he actually said “If I have to build it myself I will build it myself!” Guess he meant with LEGO sets.

Most egregiously, Agnew’s resignation knocked the Mets winning the pennant either to the bottom of, or off altogether, the front page.

You know how old I am? I actually remember Nixon making the announcement shortly after winning the nomination in 1968 that his choice for running mate would be “Governor Ted Agnew of Maryland”. Apparently, he was referred to as Ted by his inner circle for those who wonder

In 1973, Tug McGraw had seven saves of more than 2 innings pitched. I believe they had “up-downs” then, too. (I realize there’s no save on the table for Duran now. Just saying)

If the prices were similar, would Pete Alonso or Cody Bellinger make more sense for the Mets?
