Rusty played for many teams.I had a distant cousin who played for 7 teams but never became a well known player.

Have you ever been to the Yogi Berra Museum in NJ ? If not you would likely enjoy it.

This will be his last job in Baseball,I assure you. Stranger outcomes in sports have occurred.In the 60’s I played two seasons of Semi -Pro Basketball.The team that I was on had the opportunity to play a team comprised of several members of the St.Louis Hawks.Every guy on my team had the best game of their lives and we won by 3 games.They demanded a rematch and we lost by many points.However,we had the win .

I know this is before your time but I am sure you are familiar with Don Larsen.He pitched a perfect game for the Yankees in a World Series.He was a terrible pitcher before and after but on one day he achieved a miracle. The Mets were beaten by a guy who in my opinion is the best pitcher on his team.I have had that opinion all year.

I disagree with you about the Free Agents leaving.I expect Diaz,Nimmo and Walker to re-sign.I do not expect them to have Vogelbach,Nyquin ,Bassitt and Ruf on the team.I do not believe that Ottavino and May will be back and possibly not Dom Smith and DeGrom. The Mets are not the primary business revenue of Steve Cohen.

Hi Chris : Great to see you posting .Toby is fine but I cannot say the same for me.If you recall that I was not able to function on our last cruise I am much worse now,. I will e-mail you later.

My beloved cat who was on the planet 19 years only was outside when going to the Vet.I told her that it was a cruel world outside.However,when she was dying we took her outside on the deck. I hope that Leonard has a long ,wonderful loving life and that you have a lot of enjoyment from him even if he does not have an interest in baseball.

I cannot always be right but I have predicted outcomes of sporting events correctly in Baseball,Basketball and Handball and been right more than 80 percent over the years.

That was my feeling when he was hired but I have the utmost respect for him now.I predict that he will have great success the next two years. The Astros Manager is in his 70’s and is doing great.

My predictions for the rest of the games: Dodgers over Padres in 4 Guardians over Yankees in 5 Braves over Phillies in 4 Astros over Mariners in 4 Dodgers over Braves in 7 Astros over Yankees in 6 Dodgers over Astros in 7 If I am wrong I will send you a coupon for a free Sorrentos pie

I love Yogi Bear

In MLB history only 16 Managers have won more games that Nathaniel Showalter.

I think that was the Umpires decision to check the ears.If Buck believes that Musgrove was using an illegal substance he had the right to play the rest of the game under protest.

How is Leonard ? Is he watching the Mets game tonight ?

As Yogi Berra often said “It’s not over till its over”.

I went to HS with a guy who had a pretty good NBA career playing in Philadelphia .I rooted for his team except when they played the Knicks.

I agree with the best of 5 but I prefer the 162 game schedule.

The Phillies have more power in their bats but the Braves have pitching and defense.

I never cover my nose.I have not engaged in winter sports since 1975 and have not shoveled snow or cleared a driveway of snow since 1990.

I always head in the right direction.I have survived many dangers.

Some choose to go to jail rather than face an obligation.

I have lived all my life in NY and will be a Mets fan forever.I was at Shea Stadium on opening day.

Not necessarily .There are people who choose not to pay taxes and find themselves incarcerated.

I always tended to root for Toronto .When Springer joined the team I no longer wanted them to win.

Mets will definitely win today.Next stop will be sunny California to take on the Dodgers and their honorary soon to be 87 year old Coach ,a Brooklyn guy named Koufax.
