Grace is back and the Mets have been good. Non-descript in their achievements, there’s nothing much to really discuss. Some injured players are rehabbing, some players are overachieving and some are underachieving. The SUbway Series was predictably annoying. But they’re kind of just winning when they should (mostly) without any big excitement.
Next, Grace dives into the newest round of should-he-shouldn’t-he Hall of Fame discourse. Pete Rose, among other deceased figures around the sport, has been removed from the permanently ineligible list and ais now eligible for induction into the Hall of Fame. There are good arguments for, but also good arguments against, and it mostly comes down to how important character is to one’s voting beliefs.
