Michael Conforto to Cubs, per Jon Heyman

bangers & mash? arm & hammer? (I don't necessarily think the first one works, but I like it anyway)

There should be a term for when a catcher homers in one half of an inning and then throws out a runner in the other half. (Hayden Senger pulled this off today.)

Final: New York (NL) 6, New York (AL) 4

The Mets and Yankees combined for seven challenges today. They went 3-4.

Matt Shaw loves leaving places for dubious reasons.

A three-run homer by JT Schwartz (maybe). Cue the Spaceballs references. 6-1 Mets.

It was indeed the new #6, Hayden Senger

Yeah, it wasn't Luis Torrens. *Someone* pinch hit for Torrens and homered. Gameday doesn't know who yet, and the Yankees telecast is busy interviewing Luis Gil.

Thank you Mets admin for posting video to BlueSky!

A Luis Torrens homer makes it 2-1 New York (NL)

Jared Young homered off of Luis Gil to start off the second inning. 1-0 Mets.

Poor, poor Jonah Tong

USA! USA!* *Hockey

Why watch overtime olympic hockey when you can simply smell some roses in a quiet garden.

Omg Hellebuyck wrote two books about his mental health struggles 😭 (yes I know Athletic, but also this is the one source)

Mets lineup at NYY: Carson Benge RF Mark Vientos 1B Luis Torrens C Jared Young DH Christian Arroyo SS Ryan Clifford LF Vidal Brujan 2B Cristian Pache CF Grae Kessinger SS Justin Hagenman SP

I made a mistake in the newsletter. The Met game today is on Gotham Sports App *eye roll*, not YES. It's still available on MLB.TV and on MLB Network outside of New York.

ALJIH (At least Jonah is happy)

Do the Hellebuyck!

That orphaned stick saved the US there

On a Sunday no less

Terrific victory by the New York Dickerbockers

This should be a meme.

Bichette didn't run that out #dfa

Wild stuff

When you successfully negotiate fewer hours at work.

And we're back

For any Mets fans out of there, I can’t recommend Roger‘s newsletter, highly enough.

1. Affordability 2. Safety 3. A good experience 4.? 5.? ??. Winning

I didn't even notice that the baseball broadcasts today didn't have a strike zone box until I put on the Rockies broadcast which still has it for some reason.

Mason Miller throwing 102 on February 20th

Umpire Phil Cuzzi has retired. Max Scherzer won't miss him too much.

The Alec Bohm/parabolic mic incident from last year made this year's MLB blooper reel.

Poor Pete Alonso has a "mental block" over what his walk-up music will be this year. I respect him for not just going with "Layla" again.

Pete Alonso homered in his third at-bat as an Oriole. No doubter.

This will take getting used to, not gonna lie.

Juan Soto, Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien will all be in the lineup tomorrow in the Mets’ spring opener, Carlos Mendoza says.

With all due respect to Jonah, boo freakin hoo

There are Major League Baseball games today.

Bo Bichette and Andy Martino are voice twins. It's kinda wild.
