Steve Cohen Denies Mets Are Planning To Sell At Deadline 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri May 17, 2024 12:22 pm

The New York Mets are enduring another disappointing season, but owner Steve Cohen insists that the club won\'t sell at the trade deadline.

In a since deleted tweet, Cohen replied Wednesday to a fan on social media who said the front office should blow it up and sell at the trade deadline.

\"All in the future, not much we can do until the trade deadline,\" the owner tweeted.

On Thursday, Cohen clarified his since-deleted tweet to SNY, the team\'s regional network, saying he did not intend to signal the Mets are looking to sell. 

\"I believe in this team,\" Cohen said. \"I believe in the back of the baseball card. It\'s way too early to speculate on anything. It\'s May 16. I expect to make the playoffs. I know the fan base is frustrated, but it\'s still early. We\'re still very capable of making the playoffs. I fully expect to make the playoffs.\"
