Add another unpleasant story to the less than illustrious history of Citi Field. The bonds used to finance the stadium have now been classified as junk bonds.
The Mets are among the five teams who are showing interest in Endy.

Mookie Wilson was a good baserunner.
Chris Wilcox reminds everyone how bad the Mets have recently been at some key positions.
Carlos Delgado is talking retirement. Guess those contract offers haven't come rushing in.
