From the Post:

The Brooklyn Cyclones’ owner owes the city nearly $130,000 for underreported attendance and special-event income, city Comptroller William Thompson charged in an audit to be released today.

It’s alleged they under-reported by 28,000+ fans.   The team says that the city knows bleachers aren’t part of the count.    I wonder why that is?

The Mets Police suggest the city hire Howie Rose, who can continually claim there are “about 40,000” in the stands – that way the city can make money off the Wilpon Juniors.

No truth to the rumor that the Mets will move the New Orleans team to upper Manhattan where there supposedly was once a National League team with a familiar looking NY logo.

Spent a lot of time talking Mets with the fellas today and…

The Mets should just go for it

There’s nothing to trade.

You shouldn’t move OverReyes because he’s inexpensive, you shouldn’t move Maine, and if you move Wright you might as well move the team so the Marlins can move to Citi Field.

Beltran is probably the only piece you could get something for – but it’s hard enough to find three bodies to stand out there every night as it is – and ‘Coco Crisp and prospects’ doesn’t sound exciting.

There’s next to nothing to rebuild with. Next year some dead weight like Four Inning Pedro comes off the payroll so you’re looking at a free agent rebuild, which never works in Flushing.

Might as well go for it with Santana and Maine, pray for rain and hope the Phillies pull a Willie in September.

Cool link. A dude walks around Shea and does cooll stuff like bug a Jete fan and take a pic of the 41. Click.
