OT: Mets 2026 Season Thread
- Thread starter Knight Shift
- Start date
Cohen is just as bad as Stearns. Two fools in denial.
Is the Mets social media team trying to pump this up?
SNY is still owned by the Coupons. Could these be a cheap shot directed at Cohen and company?
Fun trivia question from Gary Cohen last night. He said that Seth Lugo (surprisingly) has the fourth most lifetime pitching appearances in Citi Field.
Who are the top three? Two are fairly obvious IMO, one is quite difficult.

I play by my own rules.
I consider them one in the same--yeah, I know , I know, Shea was still standing while Citi was being built. I'm tapping out with Bob Apodaca for bonus points.
i cheated and used chat but Lugo is actually number 5. number 3 will be the obvious one- not sure how many will get the number 1/2/4 guys...maybe number 1
One of the best tee shirts I've ever seen someone wearing: "I Still Call It Shea"I play by my own rules.

I'm wondering why Ron Darling or whomever would make a distinction of a record between Shea and Citi Field.
Gary made the distinction because Seth Lugo was pitching, who was (according to Gary) fourth on the Citi Field list.
Forget if Ron or Keith was in the booth, but they both keep score. Hope they had a ready supply of pencils/pens, given the 28 runs scored.
After getting shelled yesterday, Austin Warren has been informed that he is injured and will be placed on the 15 day IL. No word yet on replacement.
As Gary would say, "Oh, wow!"
I checked Gemini (Google AI) and got an entirely different answer, so who knows.
Both Gary and Gemini had Jeurys Familia #1, which IMO was readily guessable.
Gary had Edwin Diaz #2, Gemini had Seth Lugo.
Gary had Bobby Parnell #3, Gemini had Robert Gsellman.
Gary had Lugo #4, Gemini had Parnell.
Gary did not state a #5, Gemini had Jerry Blevins.
As you might expect they are all relievers, who get twice as many appearances as starters.
chatgpt couldnt get exact but has these approx numbers Familia~240 Feliciano~180 Diaz~170 Reed~130 Lugo~120
They probably approached Warren and said you have two choices. We send you down to AAA and minor league money. Or we can put you on the IL and you'll keep collecting a major league paycheck - provided you keep your mouth shut.
I know nothing of Xzavion Curry except he's got a really cool name. He does have some MLB experience - 62 appearances over 4 years with Cleveland and Miami. So we'll see.
So in the course of three days:
* A guy named Guillo Zuniga (Princess Vespa's brother?) made his Mets debut. Pitched OK, got DFA'd anyway. But that one inning was enough to earn the distinction of being the alphabetically last player in Met history.
* Another guy named Matt Seelinger made his Met and MLB debut. Didn't go so well. But his name will forever appear in the Baseball Almanac, and no one can ever take that from him.
* And now we have a guy with a really cool name.
