I love my NY Mets, well… not mine per se, they belong to the ultra rich Steve Cohen, by I borrow their images on my TV when I’m feeling too happy so it can bring me down back to earth. But, this is my team, in the good times and… now. The Mets went out to prove this year that money doesn’t mean a damn thing in baseball because you can pay people what you want, they can still lose on a regular basis. They’re not losing big, most of the time, they’re losing by one run in a game where they were up by three or four, but still stacking up those ticks on that L column. What the Mets are teaching is us is that… wait I know this…. they’re teaching us…. I got it… that winning isn’t everything! or maybe that winning is for losers while losing is for winners? or maybe that incentive based contracts are better in sports, especially when you have an owner that pays big, because if you pay up front, there is no getting those hundreds of millions back. The Mets, in 4th place and 18.5 games back with a 38-46 record, still haven’t figured out what to do to turn things around. Well, at this point, the Phillies, in 2022, who made it to the World Series last year, were, let me check… above .500 at this point, huhhh, I thought maybe they weren’t, but no, they were. Well, it isn’t too late for the Mets to do something Amazing! like, bringing up Vientos and/or Mauricio so they can get some big league experience and get rid of Vogelbach and send Danny Mendick down. Rotate them in the DH spot with the starters so they can get field time as well. The Mets need some youth if they need anything. They’re a walking Ben Gay commercial, Geritol shows their games on their channel, Metamucil is one of their sponsors and delivers to their clubhouse, the players wear a medical alert bracelet just in case they dive for a ball and can’t get back up, they have a stairlift chair from the bench to the clubhouse. I think you get what I’m saying… they’re the oldest team in baseball by average age. They need a shot in the arm and I don’t mean a B-12 shot to stave off dementia, they need some unbridled enthusiasm even if its hopeless. I don’t know what Eppler is doing besides collecting paychecks but he needs to get these young ready players up in the majors even if they fail miserably. Lets do something here… If you’re going to fail, then fail big… don’t just fail. What do you have to lose, I mean your job, but you’re going to lose that anyway, might as well enjoy watching these young hungry players try their best. I love my NY Mets….

Oh, yeah, I put a pic of the current best NY Mets….
