    All strikeouts, and no chance of scoring.
    Both teams have starters in the game now that we've reached the 17th.

      Harper comes in and gifts the Rays some runs. This one looks to be over.

          Tonight is the celebration of the team. There have been lots of good clips and the Citi scoreboard is an emulation of the Shea scoreboard in 1969 -- it's great.

                  Everyone gives that deal crap, but it freed up space for players who led them to a World Series. It was a smart deal at the time - Bobby was done and both sides knew it.

                  Now if only they hadn't invested the rest with a certain hotshot investor promising 12-15 percent returns in what turned out to be one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in US history...

                    IINM the Dodgers currently have 20 retired players on deferred deals.

                    It's a good joke, though. As a Met fan I appreciate it heartily.

                      100% agreed that the Mets saw this as a win/win deal at the time... I just laugh at the hindsight of the Wilpons getting played by Bernie Madoff.

                          The Mets don't play on the 4th.

                          How the f-ck can a team not play on the 4th?

                              It's the FOURTH!!!

                              Growing up we always had a DH on the 4th. I realize we don't do that anymore because f-ck the owners (and I'm sure the players hate them too), but come on, son. It's the FOURTH!!!
