I am not one of the people booing right now.

About to finish @gregprince.bsky.social's book at probably the best possible spot. (It's absolutely incredible, Greg! I can't tell you how many snippets I've shared with family and friends).
Good morning, #MetsSky! Today's newsletter is about how Corey Kluber was almost a part of Brodie Van Wagenen's wild #Mets offseason in 2018. Check it out!

Sorry @foiaball.com. I'm pretty sure this was my fault yesterday evening. (We had a fun meeting of the newsletter minds / catching up right after this was being sent out) 😬
The 2026 Mets have lived 10% of their regular-season life. They remain as blank in identity as they do on the scoreboard. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/04/13/b...

Anyone at today's game? Let's say hi.
Sausage and peppers is my go-to. Every game I'm like 'Citi Field has so many great options! Time to try something else!" Then I pass the sausage and peppers booth and it's game over 😂
Sausage and peppers. Been getting it since I was a teenager lol. What can I say, I'm a simple guy.
#MetsSky - I'm heading to my first game of the season tomorrow. Any food recommendations? I have my usual go-to but I'm wondering if I should branch out a bit. 👀
ICYMI: Yesterday I wrote about how the #Mets ‘clandestinely’ set up a meeting free agent SS Jhonny Peralta before getting ‘sticker shock’ at his price tag. Check it out!

Happy Friday, #MetsSky! Today's newsletter is out! I took a look at the #Mets having a secret meeting with SS Jhonny Peralta before getting spooked at his price tag. Hope you enjoy!

Jorge Polanco's replacement.
I'm mostly not a fan of any City Connect jerseys, but this Brewers grill / baseball patch goes hard.
I always like to remind myself that Francisco Álvarez is only 24 and he made his MLB debut when he was only 20 (far earlier than a lot of catching prospects). Yes, they’ll be growing pains but nights like last night are reasons why I continue to stay excited about El Troll. #LGM #MetsSky
ICYMI: This week's newsletter is about the #Mets and Norihiro Nakamura being very close to agreeing to a deal. Then it collapsed.

Good morning #MetsSky! Today's newsletter is about the... unique way the #Mets deal with Japanese slugger Norihiro Nakamura fell through in late 2002. Check it out below!

Current weekend reading plans. Been looking forward to this book by @gittlitz.bsky.social for a very long time and pre-ordered it the second I saw it was announced. #LGM #MetsSky #Mets
ICYMI: I simulated the #Mets season in @ootpbaseball.bsky.social - there were early struggles, epic comebacks, and heartbreaking loses. Read on to see what happened!

Good idea. I know everyone wanted him to be hitting coach, but maybe this gives him some latitude. Seems like a no brainer.
Good morning #MetsSky! Part 2 of my special edition series of newsletters where I simulated the 2026 Mets season in OOTP is out! And, yes, we play ‘meaningful games in September’ 😏

It's obviously just part of one game but you know David Stearns is smirking right now. #MetsSky #LGM #Mets
Today's OOTP newsletter is already wrong... And I'm happy about it. #LGM

Alvy is in the record books. That was the first successful ABS challenge in MLB history.
Buster Olney tweet at 1:26 pm: If the Pirates make the playoffs, the narrative starts with that Lowe homer.
Good job Buster #oldtakesimmediatelyexposed
I did not have the #Mets scoring 5 runs in the first inning with Paul Skenes pitching on my bingo card. Let's gooooo.
