I'm also convinced that Luis Robert is still finsding his way in the Citi Field OF. Getting used to the real estate out there with two, sometimes three new teammates. He's not the first guy with a GG ceiling to struggle a bit defensively for the first time here. Ask Mike Cameron.

Mark C. Healey @heals9.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

David Peterson is struggling, yes, but there is a reason he's still in the rotation, and will probably be there for at least a few more starts. It always amazes me when some folks are so willing to throw away left-handers, esp homegrown ones.

Long story short, we canceled our Valentines dinner plans last night to eat pizza with the kids, build a fire and watching another Best Picture nominated film; “Anora”

I’m rewatching The Flash and noticed that Bruce Wayne really overlooked that spaghetti. Gross.

So many wonderful artists and writers have graced @GothamBaseball with their talents over its 29 years. John Pennisi’s art has been a huge part of our brand. We would not be the same without him.

One of the great events Gotham Baseball sponsored over the years was The Gotham Cup, the brainchild of Gene Berardelli and Ken “Trolley” Schlapp. Playing 1864 rules, the Gothams faced off in an invitational Base Ball tourney at Central Park.

Hey, look who joined the party!

If #Mets decide Pete Alonso isn’t worth what he’s asking, I’m going to put my money on David Stearns. To paraphrase Bill Veeck Sr., when you only listen to the fans, pretty soon you’ll be sitting in the grandstand with them.

I grew up watching Star Trek TOS reruns on a black & white TV. I even worked for a company in LA that ran Star Trek conventions across the country.

My only complaint about the Superman teaser is if Krypto is CGI, why isn’t he comic accurate? That “dog” is not a white Labrador retriever

I’ve watched every Star Trek film, series, documentary, spinoff, etc. All except Voyager, which I’m watching for the first time. Got to say, it’s very good. But just like TNG, it took a while to get really good.

Robert B. Parker is one of my favorite authors. When he died, I avoided reading any of the Spenser books that were published by another author. About a year ago, I went all the way back to the beginning and now I’m finally enjoying the newer books.

Mark C. Healey @heals9.bsky.social · 20/12/2024

Die Hard isn’t a Christmas movie, it was released in the summer. Enough already. But it’s a great movie. I know this because I couldn’t stand Bruce Willis as an actor until I saw Die Hard in the theater in the summer of 1988.

I’m bad at the maths, but I just figured out that when Juan Soto’s contract w #Mets is up, I’ll be 71 years old.

The sad fellow on the bus looks at the mountain wall of JUAN SOTO GOING TO THE METS. The happy fella looks at the beautiful sunset vista of JUAN SOTO NOT GOING TO THE YANKEES.

People have a very short memory about that guy, Maria. I’m not talking about the “DUI” either. Inclusive isn’t a word I would use to describe him.

Serious question; what should I wear to host the “State of the Mets” panel at @QBConvention tomorrow? 1) Suit 2) @GothamBaseball jersey 3) #Mets Jersey

Mets notes ... — After Montas, the Mets are still wanting to add multiple starting pitchers — Some possible names of interest to keep in mind regarding short-term options — Notable because 2024 Mets story, Montas should add to culture value in clubhouse www.nytimes.com/athletic/596...

Mets notes: What to look for next in the pitching search plus Frankie Montas’ bonus

The Mets seem likely to continue pursuing more short-term deals with starting pitchers after signing Montas, a positive clubhouse presence.

An update on Winker: “There is mutual interest between the player and #Reds, but ‘may be close to a deal’ isn’t accurate.” Also was told #Mets interest in bringing Winker back remains strong.

Mark C. Healey @heals9.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

I've heard 2 things #Mets fans are not going to like, I just want to say that they are from sources outside the Mets, The first is Jesse Winker may be close to a deal with the #Reds & Boras is telling teams that Pete is prepared to leave NY. #grainofsalt

I neither like nor dislike the #Mets signing of Frankie Montas. Clearly, Stearns and his team see something many of us don’t. Maybe wait until the offseason is over before we lose our minds?

Gotham Baseball will be celebrating its 20th Anniversary in 2025, and here’s a preview of the logo. I’m hoping to put together a team of friends to really make it a special celebration. If you’re interested in helping, please message me. #Mets #Yankees
