I was merely speaking in terms of the quality of the season. Obviously it's a different league and division. My point was their record will still be below the Mets and if the leagues were combined they would be worse than the Mets who arguably are the worst ever.

Mets went to WS far more recently than the Yankees. #NeverForget

[Elmo]

Several projections have the Mets as high as the 5th best team in MLB this year.

I, 100% believe that this woman is telling the truth. Gardner is a scumbag, as expected!

Haha. Yanks better suspend him or i will lose all respect for that franchise!!

The Glass Man Severino headed to Tommy John surgery.

 

Red Sox: Sale, Rodriguez, Eovaldi, Perez?, Opener/Johnson?

Yankees: Cole, Tanaka, Happ, Montgomery, Opener?

Assuming everyone stayed healthy, the head-to-head rotation battle between an expected 105 win team and 85 win team is suddenly more of a toss up!!!

do the Angels throw at Astros for the first pitch of the opener?  Maddon says no.  But maybe a throw behind the player?

You better win one this year, because if the Sox win 80+ games this year rebuilding we will serious contenders again in 2021. Yes, JBJ Benny and Verdugo is a good enough OF to win a WS especially when you have Xman, Devers, Chavis, and JD Martinez also in the lineup. We just need a starter or two next year

why add fuel to the fire? astros have a great team. why give them extra runners on base? why risk suspension when astros players weren't suspended? it's a lose-lose. astros will end up winning 95+ games. BOOK IT
