Mets employees wear RED hats? It's a Phillies red. Doesn't anyone notice these things?

Long long lines at rotunda

I'm at rf gate. People are psyched.

Stadium outside is awesome

There are banners of Mets players (past) on the outside. The players you'd expect.

Line talk hates Sheffield move

SI Reports Mets To Sign Sheffield

SI.com is reporting that Sheffield has agreed to sign with the Mets – an announcement is expected this afternoon.

Shannon and I disagree a bit on this.

Do I love it? Not really- Sheffield could be trouble. But frankly, for $400,000 signing him is a no-brainer. The Mets needed a right handed power bat.

The great thing is, at $400K if he doesn’t work, they just drop him – no harm no foul.
