Of course Kraft deserves to lose this case. But how many people out there actually WANT to see this video? Only a tiny handful with a bizarre fetish? I think the Streisand effect will raise that number significantly.

Bill James makes a pretty convincing HOF argument for Minoso.  Based strictly on his MLB performance, he falls a bit short, but had he been white he certainly would’ve had a few more years to compile HOF-worthy numbers.  A little odd that some guys (Monte Irvin, Larry Doby) are given the benefit of the doubt in this…

Unpopular take: I still kind of like Carville.

IMO “fake” names like Ecclesiastical Denzel Washington deserve less consideration than those that people come by naturally, either by birth or marriage. Otherwise it’s too easy.

I understand that Rubio and his ilk are upset that Castro seized their families’ property roughly 60 years ago. That’s fair. But what’s the end-game? Do they think that once communism falls they’re going to be able to waltz back in and reclaim their land regardless of the generations of people who have probably been…

It’s not a sacrifice fly if the runner is out.

Has Mushnick weighed in on the black uniforms yet?

If Rosenthal retires the next batter he faces, his ERA will “fall” to 189.00

Well, you or Bret Saberhagen.

He can skate the length of the ice in less time than it takes to say his name.

I have zero recollection of Aaron Sele or Tony Armas Jr. ever pitching for the Mets.

In my case, it’s because when I was a 4 or 5 years old (late 197os), someone asked me if I liked the Mets or Yankees. Not even really understanding what a baseball team was, I was informed that most of the people I knew were Yankees fans, so I decided to be different.  The choice worked out well until around 1990, but…

And now he’s made his twitter account private:

As someone who used to listen to MLBAM’s fantasy baseball podcast, I can confirm Siano is a dope. And he’s a Yankees/Steelers fan.

Dan Vogelbach looks like teenage Andy Reid.

yeah especially in Spring training I’m thinking that the usual pitch trackers aren’t in effect.

He seems nice.

I was a pretty serious Knicks fan until around 2002, but this guy chased me away and I’ve never doubted myself for a second. In the unlikely event he sells the team I might come back, but otherwise no way.

Yeah I kept thinking that too. The only public transport to the Coliseum is a bus. Also, I’m not entirely sure why traffic will be so much worse at the Belmont site than it is at Uniondale. Maybe there are studies or something but I don’t see them here. Could it just be the local NIMBYs raising this point? I know the…

I’m sure Denis Potvin would agree.
