@metsrewind If Keith played 1B like 1B “should be played”, do they teach his techniques to 1B in the minors today? Or do they teach 1B prospects the exact opposite techniques/play style?
Who wants to go to a #Mets game?! ⚾️

@DarrenJMeenan Bad weather, ticket prices, travel, subways, parking, driving, Joey wendle being the big FA signing before Christmas. All comments I’ve seen say the same thing, it’s just easier to stay home and watch w/ GKR
@GoodFundies Pete was older-drafted out of college. Vientos was drafted at 17. They both played in the Mets minor league system=same ballparks. Pretty sure Pete was considered a hack on defense at 1B in the minors
Only three major league pitchers got 65+ swinging strikes last season with FOUR different pitch types...
Sandy Alcántara
Frankie Montas
Marcus Stroman 👊 @STR0
Slider, sinker, splitter, cutter, 4 seam, curve, 2 seam...
Batting against Stro is like a box of chocolates. 😃
All I know is, if a team is willing to pay 21 million dollars for a pitcher who has thrown 2 innings in 2 years, (albeit a large market/revenue team), it makes the thought of any protracted shutdown of the game at once laughable and dangerous. Just figure it out and play ball.
