This is an interesting development. Uncle Steve mixing it up with fans.
My prediction has been and continues to be – Uncle Steve is gonna love twitter until some moron is rude to Mrs. Cohen and then….watch out.
The Post recapped these exchanges…
“What exactly are we doing? Is [catcher] James McCann really going to be our biggest pickup this offseason? Please say no.”
Cohen then added: “Let me put it differently. Don’t you think someone will take our money? It just has to make sense.”
When another Twitter user tagged him in a post saying “time to hibernate until Spring Training,” Cohen shot back, “That’s the spirit, just give up and go to sleep…I don’t need to be popular, I just need to make good decisions.” (NY Post)
There are some pointing out that signing a catcher, some middle relievers and a first base coach is a typical Wilpon Off-Season.
Others are saying that getting Thor back is just like signing a #2 starter!
It should be interesting to see what happens when Steve raises ticket prices or the Mets miss an 8 team playoff again.
It will also be interesting to see how soon Steve gets off twitter. Steve, if there’s one thing I can tell you first hand- if you want to be UN-popular, be on twitter all day and tell it like it is. Most people don’t want to hear it. Oh and Steve – trade Pete Alonso while you can still get near-max value on him. You know about selling high and buying on the dips, right? Sell high. While you still can.
