Yikes, These are hideous. And based on the design I was like…where is the game this year, is it in….Montreal? Nope it’s obviously Atlanta.
And they are only $215.
In better news, MLB finally decided to be Less Stupid and these are only worn in the Derby and hanging around and stuff. In the game the players will wear THEIR ACTUAL CLUB JERSEYS the way God intended.
Now maybe MLB can be Less Stupid and return Extra Innings to real baseball. The ghost runner is one of the reasons I have completely stopped watching baseball.
I got this ad on social media…(btw note the Mets are all about Pride except they won’t wear on-field caps, which is a thing you can do as the Dodgers did it the other night)
That’s weird. You’d think people would be excited to see these games. So I went to the MLB.com site and was told…
Which makes sense….except for the sold out part. I would like to buy two tickets…seems I easily can.
Also note the Friday day game, which I think the Mets should do every Friday in the summer…see Wrigley for how to do that.
Hmmm seems like there are a lot of tickets available but someone priced them at crazy numbers.
Yeah MLB you and your poster boy Lindor that disrespects the customers can hose off with this. And how exactly do you define “sold out?”
Never forget. Never forgive. If he hit .220 you’d side with me dear reader, but you sell out for offense. I don’t.The Lindor loving LFGM kind, or the self-respecting pinstriped uniforms blue caps kind?
The Mets should shut Senga down until August 10th. Why? INNINGS LOAD.
Take a look at the IP column here..
Here at Mets Police, there’s one goal – win the World Series while nicely dressed. Now Steve & Alex have fubar’d the nicely dressed part so we won’t be hanging any Mission Accomplished banners this year – but it still would be nice to see another World Series parade after 4 full decades.
Look at the IPs.
5.1. Its a lot to go from 5 to 200, assuming you want Senga pitching into late October.
OK you wanna throw the 5 out? Lets look at the year before – 166.
He’s already at 74 and its June 13th.
Lazy math of 16 more six inning starts would match the 29 starts from 2023 and bring us to 170 innings, an MLB career high. He did throw 180 in Japan at the 26.
So I say give the man the summer off. I think he said something about a sore toe or a blister. Throw him on the IL and let him come back in August with an arm that can win the games that actually matter – the October ones.
The Mets are TWENTY ONE games over .500 which is a LOT. Lazy math again – if they play .500 the rest of the way 91-71 is 20 games over .500 They have a 5.5 game lead and they have 7 more wins than the 3rd Wild card. At 21 games over .500 if would be nearly impossible NOT to make the playoffs.
As the Bronx bidder tried to whip votes in favor of the resolution, and over the objections of the local lawmaker representing the area, the team behind a competing casino bid backed by Mets owner Steve Cohen embarked on a lobbying effort of its own, according to several people familiar with the calls.
“Their large army of lobbyists is going very hard,” said one Council member familiar with the matter who requested anonymity to speak freely. (via Politico)
My sense of things is this is more or less a done deal and Mr. Cohen will get his way, and we the people will had over parkland to a billionaire. I’m sorry if you don’t think the parkland is pretty enough, but it IS parkland.
I continue to encourage Mr. Cohen to buy some other land and build his casino there. if he’s serious about just wanting the place to look nice, I’m confident the could afford some easy improvements. I’ll even chip and buy 100 of the benches myself if Mr. Cohen would like to make the park nice without a casino on it. Lemme know Steve.
Gotta make content. It’s always a tell when organizations use the word Content. Content usually means content for content’s sake. Let’s see what they have made..

NEW YORK METS ANNOUNCE TWO NEW CONTENT SERIES: “INSIDE THE DIAMOND” AND “ON THE ROAD”
These all-new series will provide fans with a unique, behind-the-scenes look at the Mets organization and their favorite players.
(Shannon here. I don’t have any favorite player on the Mets right now. I have two I actively DISlike though)
FLUSHING, N.Y., June 10, 2025 – The New York Mets announced today the next phase of mid- and long-form content development with the introduction of two new, multi-episode series, “Inside the Diamond” and “On the Road”. Both series will offer fans access behind the clubhouse doors, with “Inside the Diamond” providing an exclusive look at the lives of Mets players and “On the Road” capturing the unseen work that goes into traveling as a Major League Baseball team. All episodes, shot and produced by the New York Mets Content team, as well as bonus content, will premier exclusively on the Mets’ YouTube channel.
(Shannon again – look at this next para. This guy is using the word “journey.” No real humans speak like this. It’s possible he’s an android posing as a human. I am sure Mets fans are excited to go on this “journey” with you Bobby)
“We’re excited to continue our journey in producing storytelling content with these two all-new series,” said Mets Vice President of Creative Content Bobby Clemens. “Coming off the success of “The Pursuit,” we saw this as a great opportunity to continue to expand beyond what fans see on the field with behind-the-scenes access that showcases the personalities of their favorite players.”
The “Inside the Diamond” series dives into the daily lives of Mets players with unprecedented access. Starting during Spring Training as players prepare for the start of the 2025 season and continuing throughout the year, the series will highlight players’ on-field preparation and their off-field personalities. The first episode of “Inside the Diamond”, featuring Francisco Lindor, aired on Thursday, June 5 and new episodes will drop every Thursday throughout the season.
(Shannon again. Wait, the announcement went out after the launch????)
The “On the Road” series gives fans an all-access look at what it truly takes to travel as a team. From players grinding through the demanding schedule with early morning arrivals to the ballpark and late-night flights, to staff coordinating equipment, meals, hotel and travel, the series captures the unseen hustle across the organization behind every road trip. The first episode of “On the Road” will air today, June 10.
(Oh man it sounds so hard flying charter. I may have to watch this. Also it won’t “air” if it’s on Youtube. It will stream.)
“Inside the Diamond” and “On the Road” are the Mets next ventures in storytelling content this season. Earlier this season, the Mets debuted the team’s first long-form documentary called “The Pursuit”…..
…The two-part series took fans behind the scenes of the 2024 Mets magical season and shared the details of the team’s offseason pursuit and ultimate signing of Juan Soto.
Fans can tune in to the Mets YouTube channel for all content produced by the New York Mets Content team.
(And what sounds more personal that the New York Mets Content Team? This business gets less and less personal every day.)
