Mets Juan Soto has the wrong goal

The goal should be to win a championship with the Mets. Preferably multiple.  I assure you if you win multiple WS you will find yourself in the Hall of Fame.  This is a mindset, that it’s not about YOU, it’s about the team.  Study David Wright if you need a mentor.

Meanwhile, was Steve’s off-season plan just to make his wife happy by bringing in a player she liked, and then put his feet up until someone hands him a public park?   Are the 2025 Mets right now (and a reminder they are minus Pete Alonso) better than the third place gimmick team from last summer?

Mets retiring David Wright’s #5 and adding him to Mets Hall of Fame

Hello.  Obviously I have bee away from the blog for a few weeks, but now I am back from one of my MI6 Missions and wanted to catch up on this one,

Obviously great all around.  So refreshing that the Mets aren’t dilly-dallying with this and making DW wait until he’s an old man.  Obviously he deserves it (especially in the new Mets culture of retiring numbers left and right).  It also makes sense to add him to the HOF as well (too bad some idiot castrated the museum and turned it into a gift shop).  Also a point off for sticking a sponsor on this.  Steve has enough money, must EVERYTHING be for sale?  Can’t anything just be pure?

Also as nitpick – why does the Stadium patch diss the Polo Grounds?  (Despite what some of you think, I don’t walk around all day kicking dirt grumbling about how the patch doesn’t mention the Polo Grounds.  I move on with my day.  It’s just an observation.)

Another observation – is the biggest image of DW actually David, or what AI thinks David looks like, or an artist’s conception of David?

Another other observation – all the images they used are pinstripes.   No Pinless, no black, etc.  Very nice.

Anyway, nice job Mets.  Keep it up.

Mets photoshop team brings their A game

Well this is a beauty.

Also the Mets were pretty slow yesterday on the Rickey news   If only there were some way to do posts via portable devices.

Anyway, who approved this?  Steve this tells me you guys are committed to quality, and the suites will be a first rate experience where every detail is meticulously considered for a first rate experience!

Have a Happy Metsivus

Santa Zeile to hit Mets Holiday Party today

The Mets have learned not to give their players the jinx, although Soto Claus would be a baller move.

The Mets will host more than 125 Queens students during the annual Kids Holiday Party at Citi Field from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Students from local elementary schools will enjoy games, lunch and participate in holiday crafts, while also receiving gifts, new winter coats and a special visit from Santa and his elves.

RHP Reed Garrett, Mets Alumni Todd Zeile and Mr. and Mrs. Met will be handing out presents to the children and participate in the festivities.

The Amazin’ Mets Foundation funded a grant to Operation Warm to provide 1,000 new coats to New Yorkers in need this winter season. Students attending the Kids Holiday Party will each receive a coat from Operation Warm.

I’d like to thank the Mets for inviting me this year.  I have had a nice time in the past when I was able to attend.  As you can tell from how little I have been posting, I have been extreeeeeeemly busy lately.
