Mets fan
As I remember it, he yelled that in the playoff series against the Cardinals I think it was (must have been in 2000) after Piazza had been slumping and finally got a big hit. Did he do it every time Piazza came up?

I was with my HS baseball team for spring training in Arizona. After practice, the only thing to do was go to the mall. Someone there randomly asked if we wanted to see a horror spoof that would come out later that year: Scary Movie. Not sure I’ve seen the movie since then but I never laughed harder

Love it or hate it it’s a strategy! And until they sign or trade for someone who can help the team next year it’s the only thing that fits so far

I’ve decided the only thing that makes sense is they’re building for 2027. Devin Williams as a top tier reliever with multi year control to be traded at the deadline. Stacked farm system tor 2027+ and give young players 2026 to develop. All about the next core

Stood next to him at the urinal during a screening of Armageddon on the upper east side. He’s quite tall!

Great glove, phenomenal hitter. Mets fans who idolize the late 90s teams adore Olerud. He left in free agency to play for his hometown team, which is a choice you can live with as a fan

Great year in ‘99, stole a ton of bases (66 maybe? Think it was the franchise record before Reyes broke it) then we traded him for Mike Hampton who helped us make the World Series the next year. Came back a couple years later and was dreadful. We’ll always have ‘99 though

People in professional settings, which the athletes in all sports you’re watching on TV are in, understand there are forums and situations where it is inappropriate to curse. It’s not unreasonable to believe it should apply to this profession as well, esp with its visibility among children

Just pray Soto doesn’t get thrown out on that first attempted steal at Citi Field

Poor Gilbert Gomez gonna hear it from the home fans during Coach introductions, isn’t he?

Alex Feinberg sounds like a fucking moron

I recall fans compulsively breaking out in a “Throw! The! Ball!” chant sometime late in a lost season when he was in full human rain delay mode. Lover of fine wines. The minors stint and the notable improvement afterward comes to mind any time an established player is struggling, an Alvy-esque delta

Started the first game at Citi Field and let up a bomb to the very first batter, which was equal parts sad and hilarious. Billy Wagner made t-shirts one spring training that read “Go Big Pelf” which could be interpreted as a kind of “let’s go” for Big Pelf, or for Pelf to go big. Unclear.

He makes a ton of sense for the Marlins

He was with the Mets still when they debuted their black jerseys at an event in the offseason. He gave them his stamp of approval, saying, “I like them, they’re like our gangster togs” (maybe “gangsta” - not sure). That phrase lives rent free in my head

It’s October 23, 2025. Have you ever been in a ballroom in your whole life?

I’m confused. Why are you referencing performance though 30 games when he coached 45?
October 20, 2025 at 4:08 PM
I remember bumping into Max Scherzer when he was a Mets. I asked him for a picture, he took one look at me, shook his head dismissively and said, “I’m walkin’ here!” Which, if you’re gonna be rebuffed in such a request, is truly the perfect way for it to happen

I have attempted to force quit the app and restart fyi

Games aren’t working for me today. Clicking the “play” button in the iOS app causes the app to become unresponsive

What an effort. Really exceptional
