Still, I’d probably only rate this a 3 on the lolmets index...

Not to mention that there is still all of Thursday and until the last minute of the deadline Friday to go, the Mets are still looking for a bat, and have already demonstrated that they’re willing to part with Flores. So he’s probably going to be stressed the whole time wondering if he actually will be dealt. Hard not…

Boras trying to get the horse back in the barn on Gomez is hilarious.

It’s funny, he’s got the same lilt to his voice as Tom Hanks does in that very scene in A League of Their Own.

Have you ever been fired or known someone who has? I bet your boss didn’t do the whole we’ve decided to go another direction speech and the send you out to keep working. Especially if everyone knew you were canned.

Here’s Terry Collins’s take:

Not to mention, Milwaukee doesn’t want him to get hurt still playing for the Mets while he’s now their player. Which, because it’s the Mets, is far more likely than one would think.

Cause it’s pretty rude to tell a guy “Hey man, I know you moved here from Venezuela at 16 and have been a part of this organization for seven years and living in New York as a Met for the past three, but you’re going to fucking Milwaukee, and oh by the way you get to process these feelings in front of 40,000 fans and…

Finally:

The old saying is that there’s no crying in baseball, but since the Mets don’t play baseball what Flores is doing is perfectly fine.

You KNOW he does. While weeping softly in to his sustainably harvested goose down pillow.

“Say no more, I got you dog.”

I actually saw this advertisement in the wild! I was sitting in the waiting area of a “Rock ‘n’ Roll” hair salon with my youngest son while his brother was getting a cut. I was flipping through the magazine on the table and there it was. I showed my son, who immediately took it to the guy doing my other son’s hair and…

Seeing a guy like that walk in was basically my greatest nightmare serving. You know he wants to ask for ice in his white zin.

I have spent three full minutes laughing at this picture. Please don’t tell me if it’s Photoshop. I want to live in this world.

This concludes the last thing any of us will read about the 2015-2016 Atlanta Falcons. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

The team also explained that each article accrues the total unique visitor count of each site on which it appears. As an example, “if six articles on ESPN.com contain the specified search terms within the specified timeframe, the website’s unique visitor count (and accompanying value) is multiplied by six.”

Really, it’s the methods used for arbitration and this idiotic entrenched idea that “saves” is a number that really matters. Drew Storen is the Nationals best reliever, and I for one am happy that he is unchained from this stupid notion that he needs to be used only in the 9th inning when the Nationals have the lead…

My favorite tweet about the trade.
