It's March once again. But did it ever leave? I know, I'm tired of that joke already, too.
In all seriousness, we're back to playing baseball. Monday marked the first game of Spring Training for the Mets and today will be the first televised on SNY. Let's go!
This was one of the wildest offseasons in franchise history – and that's saying a lot. Think about it this way: Steve Cohen officially bought the team in November. Doesn't that feel like a lifetime ago? Well, that's because it kind of wise.
From Steve Cohen to the first televised game of spring, let’s look back on everything that went down during a wild Mets offseason...

Let's do a quick refresher on what went down this offseason before we move on to a fresh start:
Sit back and enjoy today's action. Fingers crossed to a full, uninterrupted season with us back at Citi Field sooner rather than later. Uncle Stevie is looking for a World Series in 3-5 years. Let's hope that comes sooner rather than later, too.
P.S.: The first televised game of spring marks hot dog Opening Day. That's just a fact.
Swing by the K Korner on Tuesday April 22nd before the Mets take on the Phillies. If you're sitting with us or not, you can enjoy discounted Montauk draft beers by rocking T7L merch to the bar.
Listen, I too was an idiot from time to time. Have one or two extra beers and do some dumb shit I probably shouldn't have. Last season we were the Team Of Fun. Let's be that. Certainly not this.
Meet up with The 7 Line Army at Royal Sands Social Club before heading in to the game on April 26th! This venue is located just across the street from the Center Field entrance at Nationals Park.
