Well this was unexpected. I am so shocked I don’t even know what to say. If the Mets don’t like US, why should we bother supporting them?
Javy Baez on the thumbs down sign Mets players have been flashing to the crowd after their hits:

Congrats to Lindor to becoming the new Bobby Bonilla. I’d say it’s going to be a long 12 years but it will be wind up being a very ugly 4 years or so until the Mets have to move him….Bonilla style.
Javy Báez said the Mets’ new thumbs down celebration is a response to fans booing the team.
“We’re not machines, we’re going to struggle. … It just feels bad when I strikeout and I get booed. … We’re going to do the same thing to let them know how it feels,” he said. pic.twitter.com/CYkHVpE2KH

I had been hoping to have a new favorite Met in Baez but I hereby denounce him and make him my least favorite Met and call for his immediate release. I get that Steve can’t eat Lindor’s contract but he can eat the Baez contract.
Or just let him sit there and never play.
Javier Báez said the “thumbs down” sign Mets players have made on the field is a response to fans that have booed him and others. Báez said the players disapprove of how often they’ve been booed.
“I love the fans, but … we can’t have our fans against us,” Báez said. pic.twitter.com/OJmkZQX3xZ

Then don’t thumbs down us. You broke the bond between the uniform and the fans. There is no coming back.
For years we have – justifiably – fricasseed @Mets management and ownership endlessly.
But this from Javy Baez is THE dumbest thing ever to come out of CitiField. He and any other player who “boos” the fans can shove this up their ass. And @StevenACohen2 should get rid of them. pic.twitter.com/P0NklgDgaF

And for those of you who want Pete Alonso to be a captain….right now we need a captain. THIS.
Where is Pete Alonso telling his teammates to stay positive like he had been for the month?

I want Pete Alonso live on SNY and Mets.com apologizing for his teammates and apologizing to the fans and I want it by 9pm.
The Mets are off today so this will be a two day thing.
The full on Circus is back, and it’s not the Wilpons fault. Your move Steve.
MAN UP AND PLAY BETTER
