Bummed the ceremony got cancelled but still got the giveaway book (which I'm very excited about).

Going to the game today (hope it they don't cancel it). Not gonna lie, I'm already in my feels about it. Howie Rose is the best in the business, and so much of my #Mets fandom included listening to him on the radio. It's an end of an era. Or, as he'd say, it's time to put that era in the books.

Anyway, here's the view from the seat.

ICYMI: I did a deep-dive into the (very) many times the #Mets were linked to OF Andrew McCutchen. almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/andrew-mcc... #MetsSky #LGM

Morning, #MetsSky! With the dust settled, I figured I'd share my thoughts on the #Mets trade deadline. It was a significantly different vibe than it was last year... almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/grading-th...

Randomly noticed that my "Best Food I've Eaten At Citi Field in 2026" newsletter from a few weeks ago has *exploded* on Google. Guess folks want to know what's good to eat at a #Mets game... If you haven't read it yet here it is: almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/best-food-...

Hey #MetsSky! ICYMI: In my latest newsletter, I spoke with Mike Mayer @themainemets.bsky.social of @metsmerized.bsky.social about the #Mets pursuit of OF Michael Bourn. It's a fun look back on that interesting era of Mets history! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/michael-bo...

Scrolling early today, #MetsSky? ICYMI: Orlando Hudson 'dreamed' of being on the #Mets. Here’s why that never happened. Read it ➡️ almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/orlando-hu...

It has been one year since I pressed send on the first newsletter for Almost A Met! What a year it has been! I’ve written some fun deep-dives, seen subscriptions grow, talked to a lot of great people, and really have had a ton of fun writing a #Mets newsletter that is *mine.*

About to finish @gregprince.bsky.social's book at probably the best possible spot. (It's absolutely incredible, Greg! I can't tell you how many snippets I've shared with family and friends).

Almost A Met Newsletter @almostamet.bsky.social · 17/04/2026

Sorry @foiaball.com. I'm pretty sure this was my fault yesterday evening. (We had a fun meeting of the newsletter minds / catching up right after this was being sent out) 😬

ICYMI: Yesterday I wrote about how the #Mets ‘clandestinely’ set up a meeting free agent SS Jhonny Peralta before getting ‘sticker shock’ at his price tag. Check it out! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/mets-jhonn... #MetsSky #LGM

I'm mostly not a fan of any City Connect jerseys, but this Brewers grill / baseball patch goes hard.

Current weekend reading plans. Been looking forward to this book by @gittlitz.bsky.social for a very long time and pre-ordered it the second I saw it was announced. #LGM #MetsSky #Mets

Ok, a Bobby Valentine disguise giveaway is hilarious. Good job #Mets marketing department. 💯

I laughed, ngl. But, hey, ya gotta believe!

Almost A Met Newsletter @almostamet.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

It's true. (Well, maybe mine also 😜) @foiaball.com. Seriously go sub if you haven't already. David is killing it over there. 🔥

The #Mets acquiring Luis Robert Jr. always felt somewhat inevitable. I took a look back at all of the rumors linking him to the team (plus my thoughts on the trade) in a special edition newsletter. Check it out! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/luis-rober... #MetsSky #LGM

010

Almost A Met Newsletter @almostamet.bsky.social · 21/01/2026

Well... I was right on the player, just not the return. I think Robert Jr. is a very good gamble for the #Mets. #MetsSky #LGM

I swear I didn't plan on doing a more "recent" Almost A Met newsletter just hours after the #Mets lost out on Kyle Tucker but ... that's how it worked out. Read it here: almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/robert-sua... #MetsSky #LGM

What's up #MetsSky! Today's newsletter is a little different. I decided to do a #Mets 26-man roster prediction for 2026. Check it out here: almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/2026-mets-...

Almost A Met Newsletter @almostamet.bsky.social · 24/12/2025

Hey #MetsSky. I've got a fun newsletter for you all on Friday. I'll be doing a 26-man #Mets roster projection for 2026 on Dec. 26. (It worked out that way, I didn't plan it, but I ain't complaining). Subscribe to get it in your inbox on Friday! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/2026-mets-...

Good morning, #MetsSky! Today’s newsletter is out! Did you know that 2 games may have changed whether or not the #Mets got Justin Upton? almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/justin-upt...

Good morning #MetsSky. I know there is a lot of doom-and-gloom right now, so for tomorrow's newsletter I thought tomorrow I'd revisit happier times in #Mets history: 2015. Here's a sneak peak of tomorrow's newsletter. Wanna get this early? Subscribe! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/about

Good morning #MetsSky! Today's newsletter is live. I looked at how everyone seemed to think John Lackey and the #Mets were a perfect fit. But were they really? Read it here ➡️ almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/john-lacke...

ICYMI #MetsSky: I took a look back at all the times Brandon Nimmo was *almost* traded in the wake of the #Mets trading him to the Rangers. Hope you enjoy! almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/special-ed...

Brandon Nimmo with a headline that says "Special Edition: Brandon Nimmo was almost traded alot"

Happy Saturday #MetsSky! Why not grab some coffee and start off the weekend by reading about how the #Mets were "not bluffing" about wanting C Jonathan Lucroy in 2016? The rumored demand for him was quite high... almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/the-mets-w... #LGM

I buy the #Mets team set every year and while I think this year's design is better than some recent ones, I still love the 2003 design. It just screams *baseball card* to me.

Saw this New York Post back page posted on Facebook. I wrote about the #Mets and Barry Zito saga in July! (Pretty good back page, IMO) almostametnewsletter.substack.com/p/mets-were-... #MetsSky #LGM
