Mets 2024 giveaway bundles aren’t bad

My friends the Mets want to sell you some tickets to….what…see a SS that boos the fans and a vulgar one dimensional first baseman whose OPS last year wasn’t even as good as Keith Hernandez had in 1986 (look It up) proving that hitting a home run every 6 days isn’t winning baseball.   Anyway, I digress.

There was a time when I would have been super interested in the Sports Jerseys one….but baseball is dead and the SS doesn’t like the fans so the wallet is closed.

Fireworks, whatever.

A Hawaiian shirt is fun.  A bucket hat is not bad.  A pickleball paddle is lame, and if you play pickleball you’re not going to actually use a cheap Mets paddle…but hey at least they are trying.

A Mets rugby shirt could be cool, but Rugby shirts are usually thick and I can’t imagine the Mets giving out something that isn’t lightweight so the idea is probably better than the reality.

Bobbleheads whatever.

Overall, not bad Mets.  Now I continue to think anyone who buys tickets instead of a big TV is insane, but sure….not bad.

$53 Mets Cherry Blossom Cap

I am too busy today to dive in on the new ticket plans, I will get to that tomorrow.  meanwhile…

This $53 cap is screaming BASEBALL HATES YOU but you won’t break up with it.   Baseball hates you.  Here is the proof.

My take on the 2024 MLB Hall of Fame Ballot (no on Beltran, Reyes and Wright)

IN:  Home Run King (both records) Barry Bonds.

IN: Roger Clemens, who won 350 games.

IN: Pete Rose, the hit king.

IN:  Alex Rodriguez.

As for the new list, there’s a lot of ‘Hall of Garvey” on there (this is where we send people like Steve Garvey and David Wright who were pretty good but not Cooperstown).

I am scanning the list and everyone on it, other than A-Rod, I feel like I’d have to look up their stats.  And if I have to look up your stats, you shouldn’t be in.

You might be able to convince me on Vizquel.  As the pitching numbers continue to get worse and worse here in the Slow Death Era (2020-2045), Andy Pettitte’s resume is going to look better and better (256 wins, 5 rings, whatever went down with PEDs and Mrs. Clemens)

 

 

Mets Cloud Spiral Cap

What if a Mets cap had clouds on it….and of course, a side patch, as all caps must have side patches according to Side Patch Act of 2018.  Only $48!
