Hello from Washington Dulles International Airport! The last twenty four hours sure have been hectic. I re-booked myself at least four different times to try to find the most comfortable way to get to Columbus, Ohio, and I’m now lounge hopping in one of the world’s biggest airports (drafting this in the Turkish Lounge, will probably…

As is usual every year, I’m making my annual trip to Columbus, Ohio to see the Triple-A All-Stars in person. This is my eighth annual all-star game, and it’s a trip I’d like to make (god willing) for the remainder of my lifetime. I’ve been doing this since 2011 in Salt Lake City, and have…

This is not a surprise. Jacob deGrom was selected to join the National League’s best as the lone Mets representative for the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, next Tuesday in Washington D.C. deGrom has an NL-leading 1.79 ERA alongside his 5-4 record, 0.99 WHIP, and 142 strikeouts in 115 1/3 innings this season.

You might remember the story of the $500 “Player Authentic” jersey cap that are on sale from New Era. Basically, it’s parts of a Majestic jersey (not game used or team issued) torn apart and constructed into a cap. Supposedly, the $500 was to cover the cost of all of the hard work and amenities built into…

Here’s some random thoughts I shared on MetsPolice last week, which starts with Jacob deGrom’s quote, after Saturday’s 5-2 loss against Miami: Jacob deGrom: "I'm frustrated. I'm tired of losing, to be honest." — Anthony DiComo (@AnthonyDiComo) June 30, 2018 I think what deGrom is saying rings true to many of us. We, as fans,…

I’m filling in for MetsPolice.com all week long, here is one of the posts from their site that I recently uploaded. Give it a look on their site.  Yesterday, as I was watching the game, I had my phone on the At Bat app looking at the balls and strikes (yep, I’m one of those fans). When out…

One thing I love about this blog is how we come here to laugh about things that aren’t really that important, but are still fun to talk and joke about. Unfortunately, this post isn’t one of them. Long-time GM Sandy Alderson, in the middle of his eighth season with the Mets, will step down from…
