This following the arrest of their GM for DWI:

Absolutely cackling. That fucking franchise.

The failed Bauer pursuit, Jared Porter, the “rat or raccoon” fight, a do-nothing trade deadline (where the owner made an ass of himself on twitter), an August collapse (where the owner made an ass of himself on twitter), the “thumbs down” controversy, the replacement GM getting arrested for drunk driving after a team event…

“What a year, huh?” “Lemon, it’s September.”

ETA: In fairness, apparently the DWI was about seven hours after the work event. Slightly lower reading on the Mets-o-meter.

It makes sense the Korean baseball league doesn’t take a flyer on them. They already have their hands full with the domestic players.

The Boston defense today has been worse than awful. Breaks my heart.

Never at any level have I seen a catcher back off like that.

Breaking News: Gary Sanchez is a shitty, shitty defensive catcher.

Did Villar run through a stop sign?

You know how there are certain outfield arms that you’re always going to run on? Maybe they’ve decided that Sanchez is a catcher that you’re always going to run on.

No, he ran through Sanchez
