As a baseball fan I would say except for post season, baseball tickets are some of the best entertainment values in professional sports. I applaud the Mets for doing this and hope it boosts attendance. They are pricing their tickets based on the quality of the product on the field. It just won’t cost as much to watrch them blow another save and lose.

If they do move the fences in they might also create new seating which should help offset the losses due to prices.

ohhh, and just because the guys he signs are not on the roster by the end of the year or even after a month doean’t mean he didn’t sign them, the purpose was the ppl he sign were suppose to help the big league ball club not the triple A squad.
