Some interesting insight into the now 23 hour old story about the increase in ticket sales.
An email sent by another Mets executive, which was given to Capital, cited a number of games as “of highest demand”, including Opening Day, Jacob deGrom Garden Gnome Giveaway Day on May 2, the Steve Miller Band postgame day June 27, Juan Lagares Bobblehead Day on July 11, and the Heart postgame concert day on July 25. But thanks to the handy select-a-seat technology on Mets.com—an innovation, incidentally, of Castergine’s—it is possible to see that tickets are still available for all these games, in massive bunches, in virtually every price range.

Give us a break METS. We all know to wait till the last possible minute to buy or we will wind up overpaying. Plus, if these are the games with the highest demand then I guess the thrill of the Mets vs Yankees is done.
