Following apparent threats to members of Steve Cohen’s family this week, his wife Alex Cohen and daughter Sophia Cohen also appear to have deactivated their Twitter accounts. https://t.co/FZEQtM76Eb
Going to paraphrase, but Josh Thole had the best #Mets-related explanation for canceling his Twitter account. Basically said he has people telling him he sucks three hours a day at the ballpark. Doesn't need it the other 21 hours a day on social media too.

1947 - Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan is
born in Refugio,
Texas. Ryan will make his major league debut in 1966 with
the New York Mets, kicking off a major league
record 27-year career. He will win 324 games with the Mets, California Angels, Houston Astros, and Texas Rangers.
1962 - The Mets sign former slugger Ralph Kiner, who joins Lindsey Nelson and Bob Murphy in the announcing booth.
1969:
The National Association approves the use of
the Designated Hitter for the International, Eastern, Texas and New York-Pennsylvania leagues. The rules vary
slightly for each league. The Texas League will be the first to use the DH, in
April.
· The American and National leagues agree to try an experimental rule change in spring training using a designated pinch hitter, but they don't agree on the implementation. The AL tells the teams to use the DPH when they are the home team; the NL gives the home manager the choice of which rules to use, but the visiting manager has to agree. The Mets, Giants, and Cardinals say that they will not use the rules, and the Astros and Reds follow suit.
