Mets: Jeff Wilpon’s recent statements regarding Mets’ payroll.

While Jeff Wilpon made some valid points regarding Mets’ payroll, more needs to be done to make this team a contender.

Over the last couple of seasons, Mets’ ownership has been very vague when the subject of the New York Mets’ payroll comes to light from the media. However, earlier this week, Mets COO Jeff Wilpon publically address payroll questions during a luncheon with Mets’ beat writers. And at this event, Wilpon made some interesting statements.

When asked about the perception from fans that ownership hasn’t done enough to improve a Mets club coming off a 92-loss season, Wilpon tried aligning with the fans.
