In other Met debacle news, Yoenis Cespedes did not show up to the ballpark today and didn’t tell anyone why. Lol.

Mets announcer say team is "not concerned" about his safety, whatever that means
and now a "hot Twitter take" by the producer of that recent "Lebron The Decision" special on ESPN

Now we learn Cespedes is NOT missing but just missing from work. An unexcused absence.
So clearly the first Mets statement wasn’t intended to spark panic for the man’s well-being, which it understandably did, but instead just try to embarrass him.

Cespedes will also be a free agent this winter. So, his days as a Met are likely over. As are his days of getting paid $29 million per season.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Dave Kingman, who hit 35 HR in 1986 and had a career OPS+ of 115 that slipped in his last 2 seasons, was so annoying that he didn't get another contract offer - so he retired.
Cespedes, with a career OPS+ of 125 and who is coming off a nothing season and with far more injury issues, might want to check in with Dave.
I hear he lives a mellow life in the Las Vegas area, at age 71.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

Used to love watching Dave Kingman connect on one of his moon shots when i was a kid. Two of the cable TV stations we got back in the late 70's and early 80's were WGN Chicago and WOR New York. Kingman was a Cub from 1978-80 and a Met from 1981-83. So, i got to watch a lot of his games.“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

Kingman hit a monster shot off Cubs P Tom Dettore which landed on an old lady's porch.
