Mets Police Morning Laziness: Who is Robinson Chirinos and Why do the Mets have interest in him?

SLACKISH REACTION:  Oh my, every website and their grandmothers website has the same headline:  METS INTERESTED IN ROBINSON CHIRINOS!

That made me wonder.  Who is that?  Baseball does not have stars.  I have never heard of this person.  Is he repped by CAA?

Apparently Mr. Chirinos is 35 and has played 8 seasons in the majors without me ever hearing his name once.  He spent most of his career on the Texas Rangers before becoming a Houston Astros player and hit 17 HRs last year.  His agency appears to be MDR Sports Management – so who knows what Wags is up to here?   Maybe Inexperienced Carlos Beltran thinks the guy is really good with signs?

Anyway the internet is very very excited about this story.

The Mets also reportedly have a player named Yoesnis Cespedes.  He played back in the days when David Wright played, and Matt Harvey was a thing you’d care about.

So the big kerfuffle today is that everyone is overreacting to the clickbait headline CESPEDES TOOK BP AND YOU WEREN’T SUPPOSED TO SEE IT!

Look, I was on twitter yesterday and saw the clip which is NOW DELETED!!!   Even I am not breaking out Mulder for this one.  The clip was boring.  Wags already told you he isn’t going to tell you what his SECRET PLANS FOR CESPEDES are.    So sure, we weren’t supposed to see or know that Cespedes took BP.  Meanwhile the official White House twitter account is slamming people for testifying in front of Congress.  You go worry about Cespedes.
