    Folks (part 2): I’m joining The Boston Globe as the Red Sox beat writer, beginning in early June. It’s a special job in a special city, so I’m pumped to be back in New England!
    Folks: This is my last week-plus covering the Mets and with Newsday. It’s been a hell of an eventful seven-plus years — more like 23 in Mets years? — around a team that always keeps it interesting. And I’m going to miss it and you all quite a bit!

    Worth saying each year: MLB totally nailed it with the "every Game 162 at the same time" thing. Today is awesome.

    BREAKING: The Mets don't know where Yoenis Cespedes is. Team statement: "As of game time, Yoenis Céspedes has not reported to the ballpark today. He did not reach out to management with any explanation for his absence. Our attempts to contact him have been unsuccessful."

    Juan Soto bought Brett Baty and Chevy Tahoe as a thank you for giving up No. 22. Cost: $92,000. Soto said he did some reporting and found out that was Baty’s dream car.

    Pete Alonso's season: * won the first base job * became an All-Star * won the Home Run Derby * said "the boys are hot" * set the Mets' single-season homer record * organized a 9/11 tribute * set the major-league rookie homer record * is the no-doubt NL Rookie of the Year

    Periodic reminder that Derek Jeter caught this ball in fair territory, took three steps, and jumped into the stands.
    THE DIVE 21 years ago today, @derekjeter made this iconic catch!

    So if Mets fans want to root for a team to win the World Series, their options are: * the team that eliminated the Mets * an NL East rival * a widely hated team that had a massive cheating scandal a couple of years ago * literally the Yankees

    Tyrone Taylor found a mystery loaf of bread in his locker today. It looked delicious, but he had no idea where it came from. Turns out, Ryne Stanek's wife, Jessica, likes to bake, so Ryne gives out bread to guys. Pete Alonso got one. They embraced. "I love you," Alonso said.
