The Mets Police

I’m loving TC’s rant because it echoes what should be this team’s slogan.

Carlos Pena had this team pegged last year and now the manager sees it too. It doesn’t matter who isn’t in the lineup, it matters that you’re in the lineup.

Dig down, run hard. Use all 27 outs. Man Up. Play Better. I guarantee you that we will be able to say both about whoever wins the World Series.

2 outs to Boston, you’re about to lose the World Series. Do you quit? No, you get a single! That’s the kind of thing they retire your number for!

Now once again I’ll point out that when you’re chasing even the Pirates in the Wild Card (and hand them two games) you’re not going to make it to the postseason…but winning organizations are a build. Start with today. Man up. Play better. Demand the same from your teammates and your future teammates. Someone be the LoDuca. Someone be the Paul O’Neill. Someone be the Keith Hernandez who threatens to punch you in the face if you throw that pitch again.

There’s no better way to say it than Man Up and Play Better. Someone should put that on a t-shirt. I’d buy one.

My inbox had lots of goodies from my Special Ops Force this morning. Here’s some cool shots from the Teammates in the Community outings this week. I really wish I could have tagged along on some, especially the Intrepid.

I think this set from the Empire State Building shows that a Mets jersey goes with a button down shirt. Run that past your HR department.

And I love this one

Some more shots of the wheelchair softball game. That’s Beltran, Gee and in the smaller shot Tejada.

Beautiful day out today, and a day game. Good day to head to Queens if you can!

I think it’s fun that everyone enjoys the crowd shots. Imagine if we had done this in 1979!

It’s very cool that this is a community effort and you guys chip in.

@therealsoxy took this in the 9th

And @philhecken took this one earlier in the game
