    Robrock30 got a reaction from Lou in Mets players let their booing fans 'know how it feels' with strange thumbs down celebration   
    Steve Cohen has deep pockets unlike the Wilpons but the Mets appear to be a vanity purchase for him just a rich man's toy so he can feel cool.
    Tonight is an off day and Steve Cohen will be attending a Charity event with his 2 malcontents Lindor and Baez.  That should go well.  I wonder what the media will be interested in.

    New Owner but still the Same Old Mets!
    Steve Cohen purchased the Team but retained the Wilpons Manager, Coaches, Medical & Training Staff, and Scouts and rehired their failed GM Sandy Alderson. He traded for Francisco Lindor and extended him for 10 more years for $ 341 MM which he demanded prior to the Season without assessing if he fit and knowing that there was a plethora of top SS FA's coming in the offseason.
    The Team was 4 Games in 1st Place and have had a brutal August and now are 7.5 GB in Division and Wildcard so they are done.  They can't hit with RISP and are at the bottom of most offensive categories and their ace SP Degrom has been MIA.  The FO big acquisition in the offseason was Baez while the Braves improved.  They Fubared the Draft # 10 pick with Kumar Rocker who they didn't sign and didn't line up a high upside talent as a backup plan unlike the Angels who bypassed him at # 9.  The Fans and Media are dishing it out but the Players ( Lindor who has been a massive failure & Baez who has just arrived can't handle this.)  What a mess as usual.  LOL

    I didn't have a doubt we'd win from the 1st inning on!
    Crowd was about 60/40, Angels/Padres fans!
    Fireworks after were a nice nightcap!
    Excellent time tonight!
    Go Halos!

    Nice to hear you say that and glad to know that is still a practice after Ws.
    I caught the ending and it was encouraging.

    True.  Pittsburgh Pirates pocket the revenue sharing and make no attempt to field a quality product churning players other teams castoff and trading off their expensive players.

    The Rays have the best record in the AL with a payroll a little shy of $60M.  Why should a team like that be forced to spend an extra $40M if they can win without doing so?
