As bad as this season has been for the #Mets the worst day will be five days after the World Series when Bo Bichette declines to opt-out of his contract.
Sarah Langs is Working.
For Lou Gehrig Day I talked to and wrote about baseball’s indomitable stat queen, who is producing just as much as ever.
“A great note isn’t great because it came from someone with ALS — it just is. There’s no park adjustments.”

Remember shame? Remember feeling guilty about doing something wrong? Remember the embarrassment of getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar? No? Me either. Those kind of things seem like a long time ago.
If there is precisely one thing you watch today, make it this. French Senator Claude Malhuret. A microphone. And the most magnificently savage dismantling of the Trump administration ever delivered in a language they almost certainly don’t speak.
He covers Iran. He covers corruption. He covers the kind of staggering, industrial-scale incompetence that would get you fired from managing a car park. And he does it with the calm, unhurried certainty of a man who has read every page of the indictment and found it, if anything, worse than expected.
France has never pretended to like these people. But this is contempt elevated to an art form. The kind of refined, aristocratic disdain that takes centuries of civilization to produce and approximately ninety seconds to deploy.
Malhuret sounds like he is four seconds from the button. Not out of panic. Out of sheer, exhausted disgust.
Honestly? Understandable.
Watch it. Share it. The adults are speaking.

I paid $150 for https://t.co/w7JcyymtpS. Can I watch #OpeningNight? No, it's on Netflix. Can I watch Gary, Keith & Ron call opening day for the Mets tomorrow? No, it's on Peacock. MLB is run by fat, greedy whores and they can go fuck themselves.
