Well Mets fans, we made it.
Pitchers and catchers officially report to camp today.
We made it through one of the most tumultuous offseasons in recent history. This winter, the Mets hired/fired/hired their manager, sold/unsold their team, and dealt with one boar-related news story. Let’s hope that the regular season won’t be as turbulent and that the Mets have a successful 2020 campaign.
