The Mets Police

IDEA:  Mets baseball players should only play baseball for……wait for it……THE METS

Prospect Ronny Mauricio was diagnosed with a torn ACL and is expected to undergo surgery,

In other news….oh wait there is no other news.  This is some off-season.

Now that we have established that the reason the Mets didn’t sign Ohtani is because Ohtani/agents didn’t call Steve, I guess Rylan Bannon did.  That was smart, as Steve is apparently sitting around waiting for free agents to call HIM, rather than hiring some sort of General Manager to make outbound calls.

Anyway, this is a big signing and shows the Mets are not messing around this off-season.  The Wilpons would never have made a move like this one.

Are we really going with “the agent never called me?”

It’s not like there wasn’t a recent group of meetings in Nashville.

CAA Sports?  Never heard of it.  Does anyone have their secret phone number?

 

Hello, may I speak to Nez Balelo  please?

Oh, he’s not.  Well, can you tell him Steve called?

….

The Cohen Apologists on this story are really ridiculous.  I thought the whole point of the billionaire was to get Ohtani type player on here.

Now if you want to tell me Ohtani didn’t want to play on the East Coast – well I HAVE BEEN SAYING THAT FOR 2 YEARS.

But at least call.   Find out.  Ask.

I say this as someone that HAS BEEN CONTACTED BY STEVE COHEN.  Steve was motivated enough to tweet at ME…so he can pick up a phone.

OR…hear me out….maybe hire a General Manager to do such menial tasks.

 

“The agent never reached out to me personally,” Cohen told The Athletic, “and I think that’s pretty telling.” – Ego much?

So what do you guys have for me?

Ohtani didn’t want to be here?

Former Wilpon Intern David Stearns has improved the bullpen?

It was too much money?

With that much money we can get XYZ?

I thought the entire point of the cool billionaires was that we could do things like this now?

Also, wait until baseball realized that blew their best chance to market the sport and the only potential superstar will be playing at 10pm eastern and thus invisible, just like he’s been the last several years.

Some day someone will make a nice looking Mets Cardigan. While this one isn’t the worst I have ever seen, why is it in Cheetah?

The Giants had this right many many years ago.

The Mets versions always miss..
