Updated pages: Mets Citi Field All Star Game and Media Kit

On the top of MetsPolice.com you will find a pulldown for All Star Game Info.  I’ll be updating that section (and the main blog) from now until July 2013 with the latest All Star Game news and rumors.  It has been updated to include yesterday’s logo flurry.

I also updated the Media Kit (which may be of interest to you if you’d like to spend $50/month on 300×250 ad on the right sidebar.) with the stats below.

One thing I have learned is that the blog traffic fluctuates with how the team is doing, much like TV ratings.  So, July was down from June.   For July…

Here’s how you can buy a 1989 Mets throwback jersey

Since you like supporting your favorite Mets related blog…click this link to go to the MLB Shop. (That way I get credit).  From there pick the Mets page, and under jerseys pick Men’s Authentic.  You’ll find the jersey there.  I know that’s a roundabout way but that way I make a few bucks commission (which I spend on jerseys).  Thanks in advance!

Even more updated: looks like the Mets ARE wearing throwbacks tonight after all!

STILL EVEN MORE UPDATED (5:28pm): They are wearing them.  Turner tweeted about sweet uniforms.

And Rauch tweeted this:

 

Sorry for the confusion on this one.  @Mets_Bro had this right all along.  Then I couldn’t find anything about it, and some reliable folks said it wasn’t happening but now it looks like it is.  Maybe Kierst went to the store at lunchtime and bought some jerseys.  This is like the 7th revision to this post.

ORIGINAL POST:

So while nothing is official until I hear it from the Mets several sources lead me to believe this type jersey will be worn tonight.

It’s definitely 80’s night at Petco and the Padres are definitely wearing their 1989 uniforms. A few sources I trust tell me the Mets are wearing the ’89s.

I’m a little nervous about this story as it’s 11 hours until game time and I haven’t actually seen anything official..and when the Padres did 70’s night the Angels didn’t partake…but @mets_bro gave me the heads up. (I’d suggest you follow him on twitter…I am finding him very reliable.)

So with all things Mets Police I leave it to you to decide if you find the site reliable or not. Do we have the ASG logo story right? Do we have the uniform story right? Or are we just kooks? Up to you.

And if it turns out this one is wrong, well then I will make fun of myself tomorrow. It’s just a blog.
