New item at mlb.com – Italian heritage caps.
Kinda cool – for civilians. The actual Mets should always take the field wearing blue hats with an orange NY (and preferably a blue button on top).

forget the design, is the name of this item a subtle dig from mlb?
why not one for other back grounds Blue and White fore the Jewish State of Isreal. and green for irish people.
Ron,
The Mets are currently selling nine(9) hats, 7 Caps & 2 Beanies, reflecting Irish heritage. It is within reason to believe this Italian Heritage cap is being sold now because Columbus Day is just around the corner.
I would assume Isreali heritage is not normally saluted or recognized because it played no part in the forming of the nation, and there is no day set aside in the USA that directly recognizes that heritage, such as St. Patricks Day & Columbus Day.
