Well, we were given some clarity over the weekend with reports that the Mets are indeed back on the market and this time there will be no preconditions regarding control of the team. Why that condition wasn’t afforded to Cohen is beyond me. Your guess is as good as mine. Nonetheless, the Wilpons are ready to field new offers…LATEST: The New York Mets are on the block again, and the pricetag may have just soared. The Wilpon family will have no preconditions regarding control of the team attached to any upcoming sale. https://t.co/4QiAqB7GsV

The one mistake I won’t be making on the next go-around is trusting any news until I know the ink on a final term-sheet is dry. Spring Training is upon us and the Mets have a damn good roster. What billionaire sports fan wouldn't want to get deGrom, Alonso, McNeil, Syndergaard, Conforto and more in the prime of their careers? Owning a baseball team in New York is as good as it gets.
Get this deal done already so we can avoid distracting conversations during what will hopefully be a championship season. LFGM.
We had a magical run at The Playwright during the 2024 Postseason. Night after night the place was packed out with Mets fans and we witnessed some pretty incredible moments together. Watch the game here on Saturday March 29th!
Kick off the 2025 season at our tailgate on Friday April 4th! You don't need to be sitting with The 7 Line Army to tailgate together. Let's get the good vibes started in the parking lot and hopefully they continue until last pitch. Food, drinks, games, music and more in the Marina Lot.
We're kicking the season off in Houston with The 7 Line Army on Saturday March 29th at Daikin Park. Start your day off on a positive foot with this fun run (or walk) 5K!
