For the thrill of victory and the corresponding thrill of inflicting the agony of defeat, nothing beats a Mets walkoff win. You should definitely read about every one the Mets garnered in 2006 again at a blog that continues to amaze in its dedicated mission to investigate and celebrate Met minutiae (our blolleague's word for […]

This won't be the last time I bring it up, but briefly, there is a great new book out. Buy two copies: one for yourself, one for somebody you care about. It's called The 100 Greatest Days in New York Sports and it's no ordinary list book. Author Stuart Miller has researched the hell out […]

Guillermo Mota: Gone guy. Suspended 50 games for violating MLB drug policy.
If he did anything wrong, obviously it took place either while he was still in the Indians organization or the moment he filed for free agency. The Guillermo Mota we […]

Perhaps all those strange numbers confused the Tigers and they never recovered. Perhaps the fellows across the way in Ford Field thought somebody was calling an audible. Either way, Dave Murray, our Mets Guy in Michigan, was thoughtful enough to drape his Faith and Fair shirt across a Comerica Park railing before Game One of the […]

Well, we know that No. 7 and No. 16 and No. 15 all the way down the lineup card to, presumably, No. 10 (DH league) never got to Detroit for the first game of the 2006 World Series. But thanks to our pal Dave Murray, your Mets Guy in Michigan, the spirit of Stengel, Hodges, Seaver […]
