David Wright, The Captain, on the doubleheader loss:

"It's unacceptable to want to win a division and not rise to the momentum we had this weekend. It's not one thing or the other. It's overall...We had all the momentum in the world coming into this series and we couldn't do anything with it."

"It's mediocrity. We have to do a better job of maintaining some consistency and going out there and pitching well and hitting well on a consistent basis."

The Captain took a big step yesterday in accepting his destiny as The Captain.

Sounds like Wright was the one who spoke up in the meeting yesterday.

"I feel like, hopefully being one of the young cornerstones here, slowly but surely I need to be more of a leader," Wright said in a private moment at his locker before the team meeting. "I feel more and more comfortable each year. But in this game, you have to earn your stripes. You can't come in as a rookie and start yelling and screaming at people."

If You're Visiting For The First Time

If you are visiting The Mets Police for the first time, welcome.

This blog aims to be a little different. We're less likely to complain about a pitching change than we are likely to complain about what the pitcher was wearing.

We're about Mets history and tradition. We'd like to see a Seaver statue at Citi Field. We'd like the black uniforms to go away. We'd like the team to always treat the fans with respect.

We're just regular old Mets fans like you who have migrated from the uppers to the Promenade where we were saddened when we found plexiglass. Finally, for all our complaining we just want the franchise to win the World Series (while nicely dressed).

The site is updated several times a day, usually morning, noon, and night (cliche but true) with other items as they come in.

Mets Police in no way claims to be news nor accurate, including anything to which we link. It's just a blog. Read the blog and/or take our advice at your own risk.

We strongly encourage everyone to support the New York Mets and their business partners, just don't wear a black jersey while doing so.

Welcome!
