Mets Fans, Sandy Alderson Is On Twitter, And He Has Jokes

Mets general manager Sandy Alderson joined Twitter today. Here's what he's had to say so far:



You're a brave man, Sandy. Get ready for the onslaught of messages any time you do ANYTHING. I just hope fans can be respectful and state their opinions in a civilized manner, and Alderson can ignore all of those Keyboard Warriors out there (For those wondering, a Keyboard Warrior is someone who feels they can say whatever they want from behind a computer screen).  I'm not asking too much, am I?

Play nice, Mets fans.

Mets Take To Twitter To Defend Bringing In Turnaround Consultants

On Thursday, Amazin' Avenue's Enon Sarris reported that the Mets had hired CRG Partners as turnaround consultants. These are the same consultants who handled the bankruptcy sale of the Texas Rangers.

The Mets confirmed with reporters that they have been in contact with CRG, but not for bankruptcy purposes.

The team even took to their twitter account today to discuss the matter with fans.





When asked what services were being offered, it looks to me like the Mets gave a nonsense answer. The question did not ask what services does CRG offer in general, it was what services are they providing for the team.

While bringing in turnaround consultants does not in any way mean the Mets are on their way to declaring bankruptcy, it certainly doesn't look good.
