May 8, 2019May 9, 2019jakeryanbrown

I’m excited to announce that I will now be writing a weekly Mets column for WFAN.com. I know the Mets inside and out and I’m looking forward to writing and ranting and venting about the team that I have rooted for and loved since I was a kid.

In my debut weekly Mets column, I wrote about the team’s struggles and desperate need for some pitching help. Dallas Keuchel and Craig Kimbrel are both out there as free agents and the Mets should be pouncing all over the chance to sign one of them.
