Yes, that's him! Terrible. He used to call everyone a scumbag and hang up on them. Couldn't stop thinking about Raquel Welch either.

They were a lot more entertaining than the disgruntled older gentleman who they replaced at that time slot. I think his name was Pete...

Yes! They were so critical of him. That's back when I really tuned in to the FAN.

As a 12 year old, Gregg Jefferies was the second coming to all us young Mets fans. I remember this drama quite well.

I believe they have the team's best interest, too.

Remember when Keith Hernandez and Gary Carter were co-captains? It worked, but I think we just avoided that.

I believe there are only 3 teams currently that have a captain. It's not widely important, but in this case, it could boost the moral.

I don't think you make Lindor captain when you're longest tenuered homegrown player thinks he's the team leader.
November 24, 2025 at 10:29 PM
I was thinking exactly that. "Changing the Clubhouse Culture" means exactly that.

Can't argue with any of that including the Bottom line.

He was very humble in his interview. I think Stearns is just trying to put his fingerprint on the team.

There may have been deeper issues? Even Gary Cohen eluded during a game that Nimmo would have something to say if Lindor was named Captain.

I'm happy for Nimmo and wish him well.

It'll only be a matter of time before fans revolt, if they aren't already. Those chicken fingers will end up on the field someday. Waiting years for another World Series win doesn't benefit the Yankees.

Quite hilarious! If he wants to save some money, he can start by finally firing Brian Cashman and Boone.

The note about him only caring about Horse Racing actually came from a former player. 🤫

He only cares about racing his horses. His dad would never have let Boone stay on this long as manager.

I can always use a dummy email to sign up. I have a few extras I don't use to minimize spam to my main email. Awesome site!

@pauladonovan.bsky.social I couldn't see the site at work on my desktop. I believe it's blocked. But it looks great on Mobile. You put a lot of effort into it!

If I sign in with my email address, will the address be visible?

I didn't like this year's design at first. Some of the decisions had me scratching my head, however, after seeing it on the basketball release, it grew on me a little. Last year's design was far better.

Lol. Chipper Jones, always a closet Mets fan.
