next few years
Joe: I don't know Bro
Evan. Just look at the pitching. Wheeler, deGrom, Gee and let's not
forget Harvey comes off the DL next year
Joe: I guess so
Evan: then look at the minors. You got Syndergaard, Montero, Mejia
Joe: I don't know, Bro, these are still the Mets we're talking about.
Evan: true, but look at the stats Montero is strinking out a batter
per inning, Syndergaard hasn't allowed an earned run in two weeks and
Mejia might be better than both of them
Joe: I guess so
Evan: you just have to be excited about the young guys
Joe: I don't know, bro, those guys have a real Isringhausen, Pulsipher
and Paul Wilson feel to them
Evan: you have to see the stats though, Joe. Syndergaard has a whip
under 1, Montero throws five different pitches for strikes,
Joe: yeah, I see you bro
Evan: just look at the way these guys rip it, I mean they know how to pitch
Joe: yeah, I guess so.. But come on these are still the Mets, we know
what will happen
Evan: they are the Mets
Joe: I was telling Ter last night, watch Gee break his leg trying to
field a ground all
Evan: yeah, but you gotta admit he has fielded the position a lot
better, the guy hasn't allowed a ball past him all season, just look
at the stats, baseball reference has him at 11 in the league fielding
his position
Joe: yeah I see what you are saying
Evan: and if it was't for Murphy dropping that throw to second
against the Royals in that first game of the double header back in
April he'd be number 9
Joe: yeah, I think Murphy could have had that ball, a bit under-thrown right?
Evan: well a bit high but yes, if you take that play out and consider
his much playing in Citi Field hurts him with the grass
Joe: the mound is pretty rough
Evan: just last week, he looked a bit off coming off that mound on the
plant foot. Still the Mets are looking good
Joe: I don't know bro
Evan: Granderson is coming around
Joe: I don't know he is a Yankee in my mind.
Evan: but he has hit .342 in the last 6 games and has driven in twelve
runs in the last fourteen games
Joe: yeah, he does hit
Evan: get him hot hitting behind Wright and you got a team
Joe: yeah but Wright is just not cutting it
Evan: he's got a WAR of 12 and has hit 35 doubles in the last month
and a half.
Joe: if Ike could just bit behind him
Evan: well they traded him two months ago
Joe: oh yeah
Evan: but Wright has been hitting, just last week he was behind 0-2 in
a count with two on in the seventh and he battled back to get it to
3-2, wound up striking out on a fastball on the inside corner but I
liked what I saw
Joe: against the Padres, right?
Evan: the DBacks
Joe: right the DBacks, that game was over late with the West Coast trip and all
Evan: they were home actually but you are right the game did end late
Joe: I don't know Bro, I guess it's just a wait and see
Evan: even you have to admit that like what they are getting out of Murphy
Joe: I'm not sold on him
Evan: the guy just hits, he has fourteen singles and three doubles on
the last homestand, he hits in the clutch. Just look at his RBI'd
over the last two weeks, he is really hitting well
Joe: Bro, I guess you are right
Evan: let's take a call, Jimmy from the Upper Upper West Side, how are you?
Jimmy: Evan you suck, Joe is King
Evan: thank you, Joe what about Duda?
Joe: I don't know he might just not be that good
Evan. Joe he is hitting like crazy, he has 5 home runs in the last
week, his OPS is off the charts and he might be the answer
Joe: I guess you are right
Evan: now a message from 1-800 Kars for Kids, that is Kars with a K....
Shotgun sound.

I almost couldn't get through this. Literally laugh out loud funny. It even got me thinking about the entry about the theory of the missing plane with the goatee wearing khaki pants guys.
Joe is King.
And Mejia's been on the big league squad all season. Started off as a starter but couldn't get through a lineup three times. Now has settled into closer role. Not many closers have 4-5 pitches. Doing a great job, bro.
This post went over my head. Are these guys famous?
