A lot of great Mets material with Doc Gooden and Strawberry, they had some memorable years in the 80's it appears. I didn't realize they were that good, I thought Gooden and straw flamed out fast because of cocaine but they had more good years with the Mets than I thought. A lot of famous players on those teams. Keith Hernandez was in Seinfeld, lol (Jerry is a die hard Mets fan and has a crush on him in the episode, lol).
I knew the Phillies were good, I like a lot of the Pete Rose stuff at the beginning of the decade he was still good in his 40's as an out of shape white boy! And then in the late 80's he gets busted and kicked off the Reds and they have the upset victory over the A's.
Sandwiched in the middle he glosses over the Royals, which was bad, because the Royals dominated the 80's just like the Mets did, but he spends a lot of time on your Mets.
Cheers to the 80's! The greatest decade in the history of humanity !!

thanks man 8)
those 80s teams were something else...I missed most of their heyday especially the WS title in'86
this will also give me a distraction from the horrible play the Mets have exhibited since the All Star Break lol

Yankees are faltering as well now that Judge is out. I'm shocked, I just always expect the Yankees and Mets to win because of their payrolls. I still think both NY teams will come around in the end and make the playoffs. Do you still think the Mets will make the playoffs?
As for the Old, Old school MLB kick that I'm onto these days, this is one I've never seen that I'm going to watch tonight. This documentary and Billy Crystal's love for Mickey Mantle almost had me crying this morning. After work today I'm going to watch the movie 61—looks like it will be amazing. Billy Crystal put every detail into the movie from the way a guy would walk to the plate that season if he had an injury for a few weeks.

I still think they can but if you put a gun to my head I would say no. Our starters keep going 4 innings and that puts too much strain on our bullpen day in and day out. We made some trades at the deadline for bullpen arms but we didn’t get a starter. I think that will come back to haunt us.
On the bright side Soto is starting to come around and Alonso has been pretty solid lately as well. So there’s that lol
Looking forward to that review 8)
