- Original Met Chris Cannizzaro passed away last week at the age of 78. Cannizzaro was also an original San Diego Padre, and was their first All-Star in 1969.
- Connor Byrne reviewed some remaining off-season needs for each National League East team for MLB Trade Rumors. It should not come as a surprise that the Mets could use a center fielder, a right-handed reliever and a left-handed reliever.

2001 Topps Jae Seo Authentic Futures Game-Worn Jersey baseball card
Good news: After being offline except for what I could access from my phone for the past day and a half, I replaced my router and I think I’ve finally gotten the problem solved.
Bad news: Johan Santana continues to set new Mets team records for awfulness, and I have no desire to write about tonight’s game.
So here’s a random Jae Seo baseball card that I had scanned months ago and never posted. I find it amusing that calls the fabric swatch a piece of an “authentic Futures Game-worn New York Mets(R) Jersey,” even though Seo pitched for the World team in that game. Points for matching up the relic with a photo from the game, though.
