If I were GM…

Prismo

by m1fournier

This is everyone’s favorite game, especially when the Mets are sucking, which they are. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t feeling either frustrated or paranoid in relation to the Mets…must’ve been during the ’07 season. So here’s my take at the bare bones of “what I would do” if I had some control …

The world has gone on long enough without an Ike Davis wallpaper (at least, I couldn’t find one on google). I have little-to-no experience making wallpapers, but here went nothin’! (size is 1024×768, click to enlarge)

Which Mets Pitchers Could Make the All-Star Game?

Categories:

All-Star Game, Mets, Prismo

by m1fournier

I’ve done a little research, and it seems as if generally 8-10 starting pitcher make each year’s all-star game and 4-6 relievers (generally closers) make the team as well. As far as I can tell, the Mets would have 3 possible candidates – Johan Santana, Mike Pelfrey, and Francisco Rodriguez. Unfortunately it’s not as easy …

by m1fournier

Update (7:10pm): The delay is pretty much official. My best guess: 60-90 minutes. I still think this game’s being played though! Only issue is that the Mets have to travel to Milwaukee tonight/tomorrow. Hey folks! As you can see below, there are storms approaching the city from the northwest. They should hit between 7 and …
