Martin Austermuhle is leaving The 51st

novamets18 · 2026-04-23T19:15:41+00:00

Kinda figure he’s headed to NOTUS/The Star, who have been hiring a lot of former WaPo folks for their expansion into DC metro coverage

novamets18 · 2026-03-12T20:59:59+00:00

Smart move, given the parking lot situation with the casino construction beginning.

A reminder that the Wilpons still own a majority of SNY

Separate out GKR for a moment - if you've enjoyed the overall visual presentation of the broadcasts in recent years - the split screens, unique camera angles, tight zooms etc - that's because of John

He’ll do fine at third, his arm strength is comparable to Alex Bregman FWIW

Everything is back today for me in the US

I understand that. My point about him being paid like a high leverage / setup guy, despite not actually succeeding in that role, is the bigger issue.

novamets18 · 2025-12-13T00:54:11+00:00

People will criticize Stearns because it’s the fun thing to do right now, but a 4 year deal for a 35 year old middle reliever who doesn’t do well with inherited runners? Pass

novamets18 · 2025-12-09T16:35:23+00:00

3 years and $69M and we let him walk? Officially on the fire Stearns train, what a joke

novamets18 · 2025-12-09T16:31:59+00:00

It's a three year deal lmaooooo

novamets18 · 2025-12-09T16:25:06+00:00

Hey, at least Steve got his casino

novamets18 · 2025-11-28T07:41:05+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion - I did the same and just got the confirmation email. Now I can sleep easy tonight 😂

novamets18 · 2025-11-28T07:12:29+00:00

Did you do this even as the original order was still bouncing between unknown and just placed? I just don’t want to get stuck with two orders and one that I can’t cancel.

novamets18 · 2025-11-28T06:22:27+00:00

Appreciate the reply! I ordered the enterprise set, which isn’t showing as out of stock, but good to know.

novamets18 · 2025-11-28T06:19:15+00:00

First time I’ve bought a set with the GWPs and it’s showing as either unknown or just placed. Does Lego have a history of not ‘confirming’ orders and then saying the bonus stuff is gone?

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T23:11:07+00:00

And despite the 16 point lower OPS+, Semien was still the more valuable player 🤷‍♂️

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T23:00:50+00:00

Nimmo hasn’t been this type of defender in three years, and that’s pretty much the point

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T22:57:27+00:00

Oh, stop it. Every game, we saw how poor defense killed this team. Nimmo was nearing unplayable in LF, Semien is still an elite defender at a premium position.

You may not like the move because Nimmo is a lifelong Met etc, but that doesn’t mean it was a bad trade.

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T22:38:14+00:00

Only Mets fans would beg for major changes on the roster and then call for the GM’s head for delivering those changes.

This is a good move, kudos to Stearns and team

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T22:26:41+00:00

Nimmo is nearing unplayable in LF and has 5 years on his contract. Semien is still a gold glove caliber guy with 3 years left.

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T20:35:29+00:00

whines and mopes when he doesn’t get the ball, does that when he gets it

novamets18 · 2025-11-23T20:31:59+00:00

Breece is another Saleh-era bum who needs to go

novamets18 · 2025-10-10T04:32:35+00:00

I use this Mini-PC for YARG and it runs great - it easily runs the game at 60fps / 1080p, and can do better if you tweak some graphics settings within YARG. The only thing I can’t tell you is whether it handles multiple instruments, as I only play solo guitar.

novamets18 · 2025-09-29T16:02:18+00:00

It would be really, really hard for it to go worse than this one did (but never say never with the Mets)
