This means the Mets finally have a career-Met in David Wright! It is the biggest contract in Mets history.
Nice job, Sandy! Well deserved.
“I grew up a Met fan, I was developed, drafted by this team. There’s a lot of joy in putting this uniform on everyday. Hopefully it keeps going for a long time.”

RA Dickey is good at everything ever and I love him andandand I would even if his name didn’t lend itself to penis jokes.
BUT IT DOES.
14 strikeouts… two 1 hitters… No seriously Dickey is the greatest.
I am so high on baseball right now.

I swear if my first game of the year gets rained out I will not be happy.
First Spring Training game tonight! 6:10 p.m. EST, SNY.

First spring training is pretty fun.

Sports bigamy is one of the very few vices New Yorkers will not tolerate. Most social taboos—including many forms of drug use, any conceivable sex act between two consenting adults, misdemeanors, and the less violent felonies—are looked on with more leniency than trying to root for both the Mets and Yankees. On an intellectual level, I realize that loyalty to an arbitrary collection of millionaires who play a game while wearing clothes of a certain color is not really an integral moral principle or a character issue.
That said, I’m no traitor.
Okay so she’s a yankee fan, but I can forgive that because I really want to read this book; she has a secret crush on the mets and is a female sports writer and OKAY SHE IS BRILLIANT I CAN FORGIVE YANKEE FANDOM FOR BRILLIANCE.
That hurts a little bit.
