Tom Seaver answers a couple of questions at the Thank You Veterans luncheon.
Justin Turner Tweets Los Mets Jersey

Justin Turner
Sweet uni’s tonight for latin aka hoary reyes night!
Justin Turner has a filter on this pic, so you can’t see the blue and orange on both the jersey and the Traditional caps. Great jerseys Mets. One suggestion though. Lose the LOS on it and you have a solid alternate jersey to replace the black ones.
Mets Alumni Thank The Vets Luncheon
The Mets and Citi had a thank you luncheon to show appreciation to U.S. Veterans and to honor Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA), the country’s first and largest non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to improving the lives of the more than 2.2 million veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan and their families.
Here are some pics from the event. I will be working on some videos later for the site.

Tom Seaver and Ralph Kiner will be joined by fellow Mets alumni Bud Harrelson, Ed Kranepool, Ed Charles and Joe Pignatano in a panel moderated by Howie Rose
Los Mets Jerseys Tonight
Little things like this make my day. Actually things like this tend to ruin Shannon’s day, which then ends up making my day. THE RETURN of th LOS METS Jersey.
This is from the Majestic Facebook page.
Jersey alert! For their game against the Braves tonight, the Mets are wearing jerseys that read ‘Los Mets’ across the the front. Be sure to check your local retailers and MLB.com for your ‘Los Mets’ jerseys, wordmark tee and Name & Number tees.
And here is a comment from the post on that page.
P.C.- Oh lovely. This garbage again. Los Mets should go the way of the Mercury Mets.
Seriously though. I am not a fan of these jerseys either. If the Mets want to honor hispanic heritage there has to be some other way then LOS METS on the jerseys.
Mets Johan Santana Update
Official Announcement from the Mets about # 57
New York Mets pitcher Johan Santana was examined today at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City and was diagnosed with fatigue of the left shoulder. His shoulder exam was otherwise normal. Johan will spend the next week with the Mets in New York. He will rest from throwing but maintain a fitness program. He will resume his throwing program once his shoulder is at full strength.
