Mediocrity is the first word that comes to mind in the broken marriage between the New York Mets and the Wilpon ownership. Their decisions, hirings, and lousy PR led to the Mets becoming the laughing stock of baseball and the butt of every joke. The Mets 15-5 loss to the Washington Nationals closed an ugly 18 years of Wilpon majority ownership.
The next time the Mets play baseball, Steve Cohen will be sitting in the owner’s box.
Long live the Wilpons.
Seth Lugo likely made his final start as a Met in which he allowed six runs and did not make it out of the second inning.
