Mets Police Morning Laziness: Mad Dog is right about Vulgar Pete

Chris “Mad Dog” Russo understands statistical outliers and why teams should be very wary of them:

During his Mets’ critique, Russo said Alonso “is not hitting 50 homers again” and that the team will have to figure out where it “will pick up a little of his offense.” (via NY Post)

Mr. Alonso’s response was simply, “Fuel.”

The Mets will play a game at the Naval Academy on March 24th but you can’t go.

SLACKISH REACTION:  Everyone is all giddy that there are Spring Training games tomorrow.  I was like that once, over 30 years ago – but we didn’t have the ineternet then, or Playstation 4s, or a wife and kids (well older people had those), so some Fake Baseball was nice.  But here in the Roaring Twenties, there’s plenty to do.  So set a season pass for Mets, go live your life, and around 10:30pm fire up the DVR and watch JDG (or whoever) throw an inning and then see how long you last until Gelbzzz is telling some boring story about how number 84 hopes to make the team.

Since you won’t listen to me, here is a nice unified broadcast schedule for the Spring.
