They always couch it too. It's always "If this turns out to be true, Chuck Schumer HAS to go." And then it turns out to not be true and they never follow up on it.

I really think he said that to kinda justify getting rid of Pete and Nimmo. Bo see ball, Bo hit ball far. Bo good

Thatʻs David Duchovny

2) I used to ask my mom how we became Mets fans instead of Yankees fans. She always told me it was cuz she grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Let's not pretend that, outside of a few good runs, the Mets haven't been mediocre to bad. The Cohen era has been pretty good all things considered

Gona burn down Citi field, collect the insurance money, and move the team to Mexico. The reddit commenters were right!

Ok, but what about how the slow burn of MLB free agency - nothing happening, then everything all at once, then a quiet tension again - exactly mimics how a good MLB game usually goes and that's part of the fun of it.

Hell yea, congrats Jerry. Happy to see more Mets reporters posting over here. For your ballot, were there any you really gave some thought to and then didn't end up checking?

For sure. Just not sure who's out there who can fill the big power they need, but that's why I'm here skeeting bad takes on my phone and not in an office in queens somewhere

It obviously can't fill that polar bear sized hole, but if you squint you can see it being at least a start. He doesn't really homer, but if you want to be better at defense and get guys on base it's something they should probably explore

If they hit on Tucker I think they use those infielders for pitching. Total guess, but probably waiting to see which FA thing they whif on (outfielders or pitchers) before pivoting to trade from their surplus for one of those two

I think Duran is a pretty good target. He's not Tucker, but he's pretty damn good and can play all three outfield spots. They also have Juan Lagares lite, but doubt they're willing to part with Rafaela

I think if they whiff on Tucker they pivot to trade from their bevy of young infielders. Mauricio, Baty, Acuna, Vientos are all still here. That + Semien, Lindor, Polanco are too many infielders. Red Sox probs a good target, they're squeezed in the outfield and don't have a 2nd or 3rd baseman

The real answer is that comics were placed in front of me for "free." It was on the kitchen table every morning at breakfast because my parents got the Star Ledger delivered. But between then and millennials having kids print news imploded. The Star Ledger doesn't even have a print edition anymore

Is this the guy who everyone used to retweet when he said he'd pick like 10 random people to give 10k to?

He overthought it

The literal next chapter is all about the evils of telling lies and spilling innocent blood and then it ends by saying fury will be brought down upon these people. He just closed the book before the good part!
