Good Morning. Happy Birthday Ron Hunt, Ken Boswell, and Bobby Bonilla. Franscisco Lindor, Jeff McNeil and Zack Scott hold pressers and Pete Alonso deletes his social media accounts.

Pete Alonso exited both Twitter and Insta...

Assume some went after him for some reason.
Social media at its worst.
I know of another player who has done the same and they did it to go head on 100% into baseball focus. Likely Alonso did for that reason perhaps.

Post: The Mets’ roster tinkering appears over for now.
- “Scott likes roster – ‘I feel really good about the roster,’ general manager Zack Scott said. ‘As it is right now, I think we’re pretty settled with the 40-man. We may have some other types of non-roster deals, and there may be other opportunities that present themselves during the spring, but I feel very good about the group that we have here.’”
- “(Virtual) team meeting - Because it was too windy at Clover Park to hold a socially distant meeting outside, players dialed in via Zoom from various spots around the complex.”

Jeff McNeil talks about the depth of the Mets' lineup:
— SNY (@SNYtv) February 22, 2021
"This lineup from top to bottom is pretty incredible. There's so much protection in it too. So you gotta go after the guy at the plate because the guy behind him can do just as much damage" pic.twitter.com/qNSpreUorg
Francisco Lindor was impressive all-around during his first official day in a #Mets uniform. Now they’ve got to decide how long he’ll be wearing it. https://t.co/2w6ThLWvWf

Jason Bay, who mutually agreed to terminate his contract
with the Mets in November after three years of futility in New York, clouts a
two-run homer in his first at-bat of spring training in the Mariners' 8-6
exhibition victory over the Padres. The likable, but oft-injured outfielder
signed with Seattle in the offseason for $1 million, a far cry from the
four-year, $66-million free-agent deal he inked when he left Boston for the
Big Apple in 2009. |

2016 |
At a news conference at Borough Hall in Queens, the Mets
announce the team will host an LGBT Pride Night on August 13 at Citi Field,
featuring discounted seating for the game against the Padres and a free
postgame concert. A portion of the proceeds from each ticket sold at
Mets.com/pride for the event, which is expected to attract more than 5,000
lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender fans, will benefit the LGBT Network, a
non-profit organization, and its Safe Schools Initiative working to stop
bullying in Long Island and Queens. |
