there's money to be made by creating swag that features a Yankee logo with a cross-out that's fading into a gloriously glowing Mets logo
AA - Good one
Why would Soto want to stay with this franchise? We all know it's a fucking disaster with no desire for excellence. He knows it too. If I was in Soto's place I would have taken less money to move across town.
Juan Soto is gone
Hal and Cashman live on
Heirs are a crapshoot
