Why would he do that? He had been retired for about 3 years at that point and I dont think he even played for the Cubs.

Now Moises Alou on the other hand...

Bill Buckner always got an unfair amount of flack for that, tbh. The Mets had one of the greatest rallies in baseball history (down by 2, no men on, 2 outs, facing elimination) before that play...and when it happened, the game was tied.

If Buckner had made the out, the game just would've gone to the 11th and who knows what would've happened then. People acted as though it was his fault that the pitching staff managed to fold when they were one out away from a title.

The error ended up being the momentum killer for the Red Sox in the 86 World Series. Even though the error occurred in Game 6, the Red Sox mentally fell apart after that.

Buckner wasn't supposed to be in the game in the late innings since the manager tended to sub him when they had a lead for better defense at the corners but in that game he forgot to.

Even that seems a little debatable though, because the Red Sox got off to an early 3-0 lead in Game 7, think people tend to forget the Mets had to fight back in that game as well. Kinda wish I was like 15 years older than I am just so I could have watched all of this live.

I don't think McNamara forgot to sub out Buckner...but he got cocky and figured "Bill deserves to be on the field when we win the World Series"

Yeah in hindsight the error ends up being the momentum shifter and at worst Red Sox still had 1 more chance to potential win that World Series.

I believe when Grady Little kept Pedro in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS longer than he should have, analysts compared that moment to the Buckner moment in terms of managers going against what they normally do in late games.

I wasn't sure how I felt about the Escobar signing when I realized it was for a bullpen spot...but then I looked at his numbers and found that relieving is nothing new to him.

Decent low risk signing...especially since most of the top relievers on the market are still seeking places where they can close or at least compete to close.

Been rather quiet these past few days, but Ken Rosenthal was happy to turn up the gas on the Stove today.

Mark DeRosa is close to a 2-year, $12 mil. deal with the Giants.

I guess the Yankees didn't make a move on him after all. Door's still open for Damon

Unless Damon's price comes down a lot still I think the Yankees will just get someone like Reed Johnson to platoon with Gardner. I know they've been linked to him recently and it doesn't seem like a terrible idea. He's a career .313/.378/.463 batter against lefties. Also has solid defense and can play all outfield positions.

He could definitely make sense considering Granderson's inability to hit lefties too.

Ideally Damon would come back for cheap, but I can't see it happening. Cashman seems to have drawn a line with 4M left to work with. Thats not getting Damon.

Today on WFAN, Mike Francesa said he will give a ‘major, major update on the Mets,’ during tomorrow’s show.

Well.....if it was inside information on a free agent signing or trade, why the fuck would you tip off the rest of the media world? My HOPE is that it'll be something like the Mets are giving up on Bay and are aggressively pursuing Holliday instead, but I dunno. I also heard Bay might make a decision soon, so I hope the shit gets resolved soon either way.

Beat writers and everybody from Olney to Rosenthal are now getting the info.

Watch Francesa be pissed off tomorrow cause someone else broke the news besides him.

Yeah, if it's something really big I refuse to believe only Francesa has links to the inside sources. I mean, he was the first person to report that the Mets made an offer to Jason Bay...but then not too long after that everyone else caught on.

Who knows...gotta hand it to the big guy though, he's given me a reason to tune in.

Don't need Dye. He's getting old and ain't got the arm he used to have. I think we'll ending up give the spot to Gardner or find somebody on the B list and give him a 1-year deal.

Also, I think we only got about 4-5 mil. to pay with. We're really not screwing around with payroll this season.

Francesa's really hyping up the Mets news, which is meant to be revealed at 2:05 PM

Still can't help but feel like it's not gonna be anything groundbreaking, since nobody else has said anything. But, we'll see.

Dye hit 27 HRs last year in an off year for him. He's quietly better than people give him credit for.

Nice. Hope it was the 4 year, $65 million deal they offered. I'd be ecstatic to not have that guaranteed 5th year.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post tweets that Bay has a four-year, $66MM agreement with an easy fifth-year vesting option.

1:42pm: Joel Sherman of the New York Post tweets that Bay has a four-year, $66MM agreement with an easy fifth-year vesting option. The 2014 vesting option appears to be worth more than $14MM, as ESPN's Jerry Crasnick tweets that Bay's deal could be worth "slightly more than $80MM over five years."
