According to Multiple Reports, Mets Police has learned that the Syracuse Chiefs will rebrand as the Syracuse Mets. The source here is Gov. Andrew Cuomo – but check out this update where I think maybe perhaps Cuomo misspoke.
Of course this is stunning as the trend in MiLB is to have a name like Pizza Rats or Chocolate Elves or Forest Fairies, so that they went with Mets as opposed to Rumple Ponies is fascinating.
Sorces tell me @mediagoon is on his way to Syracuse Modells to buy two of everything.
As of 4:49pm I am not sure this is a real thing or not.
5:16pm Or or or is this even more updated report from 5:16pm the real story? Maybe they WILL change their name…but to what?
