I’m sure fines will be coming their way soon.
Update: And Turner keeps tweeting… He even admits he’s not sure if he should be tweeting during games.
Oh boy.
Someone stop him!
Update 2: Now he’s moved to retweeting. Strike that, he un-retweeted it.
In three years hedge fund manager David Einhorn could gain control of the New York Mets for $1.
Sounds like a pretty sweet deal. Get the majority stake in the Mets for cheaper than anything you can possibly buy at Citi Field.
He should pay in pennies, if he ever decides to do this deal.
I hope that's how long.”

can keep up his current hot streak
This man. Pay this man his money. It’s not Carl Crawford money anymore, it’ll be Jose Reyes money (ripped from Peter Botte’s tweet). And he’ll deserve it.
He’s slashing .339/.389/.512/.899 –that’s average, OBP, SLG, OPS, in case you didn’t know.
He’s tied for the major league lead in hits, with 84.
He leads all of baseball in triples with 11. Second place has 6.
He’s only tied for 4th in the majors with 18 doubles.
Stolen bases, you ask? Tied for third, with 19.
Not enough walks for you? He’s 17th in MLB with a .389 OBP.
Pay this man his money.
He’s healthy. He’s in his prime. He’s killing opposing pitchers.
And he’s awesome.
Pay the man his money. Whatever it may be.
Open your checkbooks, Wilpon family. Sign whatever has the most zeroes on the end of it. Trot out more merchandise to fill your empty pockets. Do whatever you have to do.
Pay the man.
Something went wacky with my MLB AtBat app and this is what the game sounded like…
Wayne Hagin never sounded so good.
Apologies for the lack of posts on TheRopolitans.com lately.
I’ve been plugging away making sure the 32 news sites we just launched in Westchester County, NY were ready to go live. If you happen to be a Westchester native, check out TheDailyWestchester.net, which will link you to one of our local news sites.
I’ll get back to the Mets soon enough.
Thanks for understanding!
Sad news in the Mets-fan family today, as fan and author Dana Brand has passed away.
Above is a note from his wife on his Facebook page.
Brand was the author of The Last Days of Shea and Mets Fan.
Our thoughts are with Brand’s family.
The Mets have agreed to sell “less than 49 percent” of the Mets for $200 million, according to ESPNNewYork.com and the New York Daily News.
Update: Adam Rubin says the Mets have confirmed the sale.
The sale is to David Einhorn, an investor from Westchester County, NY. The sale does not include stake in SNY.
Never a dull moment in Mets-world, eh?
“Actually, Dykstra came to visit me on ‘Celebrity Rehab. I’ll tell you what, it was crazy. He thought that I had been hypnotized and (Dr. Drew) got me in there and was holding me hostage. He tried to come in with two guys to get me out of there.”
