Ode To The Mets, Part 2

Last year, on the eve of the Opening Day of the 2022 Major League Baseball season, I wrote one of the most heartfelt Toilet Read Newsletters to date about my love for the New York Mets. The Mets, for those of you who don’t know, are a completely cursed baseball team who seem to enjoy torturing their dedicated fan base year after year.

Surprisingly, though, they don’t torture us by being horrible. Instead, they torture us by being pretty damn good before they, inevitably, and seemingly out of nowhere, collapse/implode/get horribly injured/all of the above. 

This year, though, will be different. I know what you’re thinking: Andrew, didn’t you say that last year? Yes. And what happened last year? Well, if you must know, they lost their division that they had a firm lead on for almost the entire season. But this year, for real this time, things will change. 

The Mets start their season today against the Miami Marlins. A season that, I can say with the utmost certainty, will end in a World Series victory. 

Official Record Prediction: 91-71
