Welcome to essay number 9000 about whey the Mets should WEAR THE CAPS on September 11th.
You can read yesterday’s piece about what happens ewhen you break the rules – you get a letter from Joe Torre if you break the rules (oooo scary).
And now we have this. A team decided not to wear what they were supposed to. The Cubs blew off dopey Players Weekend and took the field in blue caps.
? @Cubs announcer @LenKasper mentioned that today at about 2:20pm Eastern time about @JLester34 but said since the Cubs chose to all wear blue caps today with their weird white uniforms that no white cap rule was not in play… #Chicago knew https://t.co/RU8c1vNkZJ

Yes. The Cubs wore blue caps today instead, but heard MLB sent a memo to the other teams telling them they had to go with white caps & black on pitcher.

So once again, I say WEAR THE CAPS Mets. Come on Thor, you follow me, you don’t care what people think. Get Mr. Polar Bear behind this. Is baseball really going to have a whistling match with you guys over 9/11? I would LOVE to see that fight in the court of public opinion.
What’s going to happen to the Cubs? NOTHING. Some dude on the Cardinals took the field in a red cap. What will happen? Nothing. Maybe a letter from Joe Torre. Oooh scary.
What’s going to happen to the Mets? Torre will send you a letter (maybe), and he will call and yell at Brodie or Jeff or someone. Who cares? Actually Jeff getting yelled at it is reason alone to do it.
Mr. Thor, Mr. Polar Bear – you will get a letter from Torre. Ooooh scary. You will also be heroes forever. Here’s page 217 of your union’s CBA.
WEAR THE CAPS!
