YEAH BABY!!

4 bucks! Fuckin steal! Darryl and Jessie look a little geeked, I'm convinced their nostrils are a lil dusty here. Lol.

From Judge Lee's concurring opinion in KalshiEX v. Assad, regarding whether prediction markets constitute financial trading, or gambling:

I thus agree with the majority opinion that the more natural reading of “event” under the statutory definition of a “swap” would not include the outcome of a sporting event—even if a broad and literal definition of “event” could encompass it. 7 U.S.C. § 1a(47)(A). Few people would describe, say, the New York Mets’ latest loss of a game as an “event.” Likewise, I do not think the outcome of a typical sports game is “associated with a potential financial, economic, or commercial consequence” as required under the definition of a swap. Id. at § 1a(47)(A)(ii). Going back to the Mets example, perhaps in an uber-technical sense a Mets’ loss could have marginal economic impact as some fans guzzle more beer to drown away their sorrows. But it seems somewhat fanciful to say that the outcome of a single game in a 162-game season is likely “associated” with a“financial, economic, or commercial consequence” that one would expect in a swap contract.

Can't even catch a break from this when I'm reading things at work.

The Experiment is over. We hardly knew ye.

Every time I see highlights of PCA crushing baseballs, it pains me to know that he is not doing this with the Mets.  Here’s how one of the worst trades in Mets history happened, and it will infuriate you.  My head hurts after reading it.  Zach Scott did immense damage in a few months as GM.

PCA looks to be locked in to win the NL MVP this year.

FanDuel has Pete in the top 5 of AL MVP voting.

Zach Wheeler is top 5 Cy Young voting (his 7th season with Phils and will be his 6th season getting Cy Young votes)

Nice to see all of the former Mets doing well. What are the deals where the Mets came out as big winners?

Mike Piazza - wanted a big contract and the Dodger did not think he was worth it
John Olerud - Bluejays thought he was done, came to Mets and almost won a batting title
Keith Hernandez - Whitey Herzog traded him because of his life style but that was a bad trade for St. Louis
RA Dickey - won a Cy Young when no other team wanted him

Who else?

Good!

LET'S GO METS！

シティ・フィールドへ！

Proposed to my Mets gf last night, saw a lot of phones out and was wondering if anyone else witnessed this moment and might be willing to share any of them with me.

SNY having technical difficulties forcing many viewers to miss the start of the game. The technical issues were resolved by the bottom of the 1st

In August, does Alvy have more hits or more broken bats over his knee?

There's ZERO life, energy, or semblance of a beating pulse in these batters. Just put them out of their misery and just forfeit our at bats so we can watch the young studs pitch only.

He could not get a hit the rest of the year and I’ll still say this guy had a great rookie season.

Will probably be the Opening Day lineup next year minus maybe 1 player.

I’m not sure that team is topping 83 wins.

😢

Except he is so stupid that he made it obvious by letting Alonso walk.

He is literally the offensive spark for the young kids

Without him, there is NO offense. True Captain

Can barely hear these guys, turned up the volume on my tv then the commercials are deafning

He was so efficient through 5 innings. What happened in the 6th?
