September 22, 20241 yr slight digs at the org by their social media people actually makes me like them more vs their straight corporate generic boilerplate that they used to tweet out
September 22, 20241 yr Did they ever figure out who was responsible for the Gonzalez graphic last year when his numbers were absolutely horrific? Baseball America? Someone was messing with the Sox about their #1 pick.

September 22, 20241 yr Greg Prince, who pens the popular blog “Faith and Fear in Flushing” and has written four books about the Mets, ultimately agrees with the majority. “I’ve been charmed by all that went into creating 40-120 my entire rooting life,” Prince wrote in an email. “The legend of the 1962 club will endure no matter who holds the record. All that being said, hell yes, let somebody else lose more than my team. Plus, you know, history. Somebody setting a mark like this while we’re here to witness it is worth a dozen Danny Jansens facing off against another dozen Danny Jansens.” https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5729682/2024/08/30/mets-white-sox-mlb-most-losses/ 9 living members still from that 1962 Mets' team...just thought it was ironic we hired someone to run intl scouting from the Mets who JR would undoubtedly rather associate with the 2024 Mets The nine living 1962 Mets are Jay Hook, Craig Anderson, Felix Mantilla, Cliff Cook, Galen Cisco, Rick Herrscher, Jim Marshall, John DeMerit, and Ed Kranepool.

September 22, 20241 yr This is such an important part of their marketing and connecting with fans I hope they promote that guy and give him a raise.
September 22, 20241 yr Wait, so you guys seriously dislike this? This is like the singular thing they’ve done right this year. They’re mocking the team and being funny.

It's not serious. They're making light of a shitty situation. I'm sure it made the 28 people who actually read Sox Twitter laugh.
September 22, 20241 yr Yeah I’ll take an attempt at humor (could have been much better) over keeping the status quo as if something insanely bad isn’t happening Also nothing worse than seeing the few good moments of the season posted to social media. Really not necessary to post about an Andrew Benintendi HR while the team is in the midst of a 2-17 streak. Read the room

Whoever the new person posting is should get a raise.
