Today I am super-busy. Historically, on my busiest days the Mets (who probably have my ical bugged) announce all sorts of things. Here’s what I see happening today.
- Actual Fan Fest details come out. We now know deGrom, Alonso, Rosario and Matz will be around, but they will probably put out a big press release right as I walk into a meeting.
- MLB will release the Spring Training caps and jerseys, right before I walk into a meeting.
- Two seconds after I hop on the subway to come home, the Mets will announce Luis Rojas as manager. As for Rojas, that’s the path of least resistance so that’s what they will do. At this point I don’t care who manages.
An interesting twist in all this is the Red Sox being interested in Bam Bam Muelens to manage in Boston. Wouldn’t it be awesome if the Mets also lose their bench coach? Yes. Yes it would be awesome.
SLACKISH REACTION: Not much going on. Looks like Sugar Diaz did some good things…the other sites are all regurgitating that so I’ll let you read that there as I have to shower and shave.
Barry Bonds did not make the Museum In The Middle of Nowhere. Derek Jeter and Larry Walker did. Whatever.
