my 8 year old is obsessed with baseball and hasn't watched field of dreams and I was explaining all the dad/son stuff about it and we watched the game and it ruled.

I think the movie is boring and cheesy.

I like it, but it's a lot of work up for the moments you already know and hear constantly. I don't know that it's a rewatch.

That's dumb, they're getting booed because they're hot garbage. I'm not a sports boo'r, they should be thrilled there's fans still passionate enough to show up and care.

That's really dumb.  Sad to see a beautiful human like Javy Baez has been ruined in less than a month with the Mets.

It was glorious.  But Diaz really really tried to give me heart attack.

That game was a fever dream. Those are a lot more fun when your team isn't playing in then but a team you hate is.

It was an amazing non playoff baseball series.

We should have swept it, but if the Mets did what they should do they wouldn't be the Mets.

Rojas fired as mets skipper yesterday. i'm fine w/ this decision. the firepower he had this year, and how mediocre the NL east was...wildcard should have gotten his seat warm, but 8 games under...yeah, time to go.

Yeah.  Nice guy, but heads had to roll.  I'm ready for a post Sandy era, but who knows what that will bring.

I'd love to do the following (but likely won't happen):

Re-sign Javy
Re-sign Stro
Re-sign Loup
QO Conforto
QO Thor
Keep Villar at third unless magic happens

The following players should not be starters:
Dom Smith
McNeil
McCann
Pillar
Davis

Lose from the pen:
Familia
Hand
Castro

I'd love to do the following (but likely won't happen):

Re-sign Javy agree he is fun and its fun to watch him and Lindor together
Re-sign Stro strongly agree
Re-sign Loup strongly agree
QO Conforto sure. he seems kinda ho-hum about staying here, wouldn't be surprised if he went elsewhere. Love his defense but when he gets on a cold streak...
QO Thor who? oh yeah. that guy i haven't seen throw a ball in like 2 years. Sure. Even if his velocity is down I think he's better than half the regular starters
Keep Villar at third unless magic happens i don't think we have any reason to think we'll get a better 3B so yeah that's cool. If its Villar or Davis I'll take Villar

The following players should not be starters:
Dom Smith if the NL gets the DH next year then I'm fine with Dom at 1st and Pete DH, the difference level between Dom and Pete at first isn't much. One of my favorite things about Pete at 1B that he didn't do much this year is on a pickoff when he would pretty much just club the runner in the face when trying to swipe tag even if the runner was safe by a mile he'd do it anyway and im like well that's a little dirty but its also fun to watch
McNeil yeah, his best quality was his ability to put the ball in play, and i can't even count the number of times this year we had a guy on 3rd, less than 2 hour and jeff couldn't get him home. pathetic. if he keeps hitting like he did this year then i think he'd be a great addition to the benchmob
McCann meh, him and nido are interchangable to me. McCann has a slightly better arm but Nido strikes out way less.
Pillar i like him in left. better than Dom or Jeff. Depending on what happens w/ Conforto we might not have other options
Davis benchmob

Lose from the pen:
Familia yeah he's washed up. we'll always have 2015 right up until but most definitely not including the WS
Hand b y e
Castro i'd get rid of Diaz before Castro. The other Diaz. Not that i've been particularly impressed with Edwin but he looked better this year than his previous time in a mets uniform
