Morning Mets reading

I usually type Mets into Google to see what’s going on.  Several things this morning:

Jesse met Darryl Strawberry in 1987.

In the News, Denis Hamill writes about the Mets payroll but throws in this chuckle:

“I always want Mets fans on my juries,” said one noted defense attorney friend, a rabid Yankees fan. “They love losers, even three-time losers like some of my clients. And if Mets fans believe anything the Mets front office says, I can convince them to acquit anybody.”

On Yahoo Tim Brown reminds the country that the Mets have a high payroll but are paying for nothing. Thanks Omar.

Hardball Talk (one of my faves) says the Mets may not release Castillo.

The Post catches up with the blogosphere and notices K-Rod’s option kicks in after 55 finished games.   Next a WFAN host will notice.

So, in retrospect the only new item is Jesse’s story about meeting Straw.  The rest you’ve been reading on the blogs for months.
