I've finally put pen to paper about the Mets' offseason. My first article in four years. I hope that you'll take a few minutes to read it over on @GoodFundies on Medium, which still exists. Happy to discuss. goodfundies.com/the-mets-ter…

The Mets’ Terrible 2026 Offseason Should Put David Stearns on the Hot Seat

The Mets just completed what I can only describe as “the weirdest offseason in thirty years.” As fans we’ve lived through a lot of strange…

Awesome list. And ignoring all the pre-integration, no-playoffs, Mickey Mouse wins, there are just six: 1998 Yankees 1975 Reds (Morgan, Bench, Rose) 2016 Cubs (Bryant, Rizzo, Lester) 2018 Red Sox (Mookie, JD, Sale) 1970 Orioles (Robinsons, Boog, Palmer) 1986 Mets

This is not the answer, but do you know who I miss? Jose Vidro. That guy could flat out hit. Went .304, .330, .319, .315, .310 over a five year stretch. Got little attention.

The Expos in 2003 and 2004 and the Nationals in 2005 are the same franchise, but the card counts them as separate stops on the way to eight teams. Mets, Twins, Marlins, Yankees, Orioles and Braves finish the path through 2013.

Wealthy New Yorkers Who Take The Bus
@bri_guy_nyOct 26
I'm in my 40s. I'm a lawyer. My wife is a lawyer. We both work full time. We cannot afford the house my parents purchased on a single electrician's income in their 30s. We cannot afford the house my immigrant grandparents purchased on a single MTA bus driver's salary in their 30s. They had SIX CHILDREN. For 30 years, politicians in Washington & their oligarch allies convinced regular people that this was just about avocado toast and fancy coffee. In reality, this is end-stage capitalism. Everyone is stuck in place. It's impossible to buy a home. It's too costly to move. We work too much to have passion projects. We don't have enough savings to start our own businesses. We can't afford to go without healthcare to do it. Thanks for writing this article @troy_closson. Would be very happy to discuss further. nytimes.com/2026/10/25/nyreg…

Can’t Afford a Home. Can’t Afford a Baby. Can’t Afford Life. This is 30.

They’re trying to build middle-class lives in New York. But many 30-year-olds in the city feel worse off than their parents. Is it average adult angst? Or something more enduring?

I spend a lot of time thinking about changeups. The stones required to do this. Are there any other sports where you do anything less then max velocity/effort in an effort to trick your opponent, where you still have to reach them? All I can think of is the hockey shootout.

"It doesn't impress me that you can throw nasty changeups four times in a row." Dawson Brown threw 62.1 innings, striking out 75 hitters across A, A+, and AA for the Diamondbacks org in 2026. In this October pen, he averaged 83.3 mph at -1.9" IVB and 18.6" HB on his absolutely devastating changeup. Coach: @CraigStem

Like a little drop shot in tennis is cool, too, but that's a different kind of deception-- you're hoping your opponent won't reach it.

I texted my children that we got the puppy they’ve been begging me for and sent them a link with pictures. 🐶When they clicked on the link, it took them to a webpage that said YOU’RE GROUNDED. They’ll be spending the weekend retaking our family’s cybersecurity training course.

I saw somebody complain that Misiorowski hasn't been giving the Brewers "length" this postseason. Like c'mon man. 5 IP and 1 ER will play any day of the week, especially with that monster bullpen.

@pitchprofilerOct 24
Jacob Misiorowski had the best executed outing of the day yesterday, a 125 proPitching+ across 5.0 innings with 1 run allowed on 4 hits and 3 strikeouts. Nick Martinez graded next at 115, with 5.0 IP, 2 ER and 5 K.

So happy to see old friend Steven Matz pitching in Game One of the World Series. Hometown boy made good.

The Brewers are so good that Chad Patrick, a dude with a 3.40 ERA/1.7 WAR year both starting and pitching out of the bullpen, couldn't even make it as the last guy on the roster. Tough luck for Chad, who helped the team get there. But so cool to see Brandon Woodruff back.

Brandon Woodruff is on the Brewers playoff roster. Buckle up.

Maddux was great but starting at about 0:25 in this video, Maddux got six comebackers/grounders on fastballs down the middle that Junior Caminero would send into orbit.

Greg Maddux did a little bit of everything in Game 2 of the 1996 World Series. He threw eight shutout innings against the Yankees, recorded two putouts and six assists in the field, and struck out two. The strikeout total wasn't huge because it didn't need to be. This was Maddux controlling a World Series game with command, contact and defense all at once.

A lot of the people in the replies yelling at me --- you do not like Maddux the way that I did. Despite being an all time Mets foe, he was one of the coolest dudes to watch work. That said, this clip shows some pathetic Yankee at-bats.

Nice call, Tieran. #HeAlreadyKnew
Tieran@Tieran71118 Jul 2022
Jacob Misiorowski has ridiculous FB spin and touches 100 MPH. 7' extension. 5.2' RelHeight with 15" IVB and if he can improve spin efficiency then wow. He was averaging 92 with his slider that has sweeper traits in May. Only two pitches and bad control but he's a Brewer so Ace.

Jacob Misiorowski had just 76 good innings at Crowder in 2022. No other track record. 5.33 BB/9. Yet the Brewers drafted him in the Second Round. What was Stearns cooking here. Amazing.

Bichette ended up at 1.9 WAR.
Uncapped Downside Scenario Lover@GoodFundiesApr 2
Bichette is a 120-130 wRC+ guy with big variance because of a lot of contact, no real position on the Mets, and some cliff risk because of the lack of plate discipline. I think he ends up fine, but he could also put up a 2.3 WAR clunker.

In case you need a reminder of how bad the Bo Bichette signing was, he is not even listed on MLBTR's Top 10 Free Agents list this year. He is only listed as an Honorable Mention... and that's in a FA class considered to be one of the weakest in decades. The Mets owe him 2/$84M.
