Links: Face Off, Minutaie, Pay and Replay
Is Tom Glavine taking a page out of Face Off, wonders Metstradamus.
In a post to Mets Walk-Offs and Other Minutiae, read about random things he learned while trying to kill time in his hotel room, such as, “If we’re gonna talk Mets killers, let’s not just talk Jeter and Chipper. Let’s talk Dave Kingman.”
According to Josh Curtis in the New York Observer, the Yankees and Mets do not get what they pay for.
Lastly, though he ‘hates to admit it,’ Bill Chuck at Dugout Central thinks it is time for instant replay in baseball.
…the one argument i can’t stand is the traditionalists one…the difference between 40 years ago and today is that back then, had a play like Sunday’s foul-ball home run occurred, only one camera with one angle would have captured it…it would have come and gone…today, 20 cameras from 20 angles in 20 countries will likely see it, and every one will have an opinion, which will embarrass the umpires and prolong the controversial discussion leading to all sorts of rulings and appeals and so on…they are two different eras, which, like it or not, require two different ways of looking at things…
