The Mets may ignore their own history…but this guy doesn’t. We can argue about Cuban politics another day.

The fact that the new home of the Mets is named for its corporate sponsor rather than William Shea, the man who brought the team to New York, is another disappointment to Croatto.
“It certainly put in its time and paid its dues, but it’s still sad to see it go, because it was the only stadium I knew and the only stadium the Mets have known, really,” Croatto said.
“It’s the end of an era, and the fact that it’s Citi Field, the fact that it’s a corporate name, is disappointing.”
As the season wears on, Croatto is hoping that those who purchase his T-shirt will wear them to Citi Field.
