The former Mets GM Sandy Alderson is now the acting GM. He took the role over from Acting GM Zack Scott because he was charged with a DUI the other night and placed on leave. Zack Scott who is acting GM and on administrative leave became the Acting GM after former GM Jared Porter was accused of sending lewd and explicit texts and pics to a female journalist.

Acting Mets GM busted for Drunk Driving Charge

 

This is definitely a thumbs down situation. Just when you think the Mets get clear of one PR hiccup now they are possibly about to hit a disaster.

From the NY Post

Acting General Manager Zack Scott is facing driving while intoxicated charges after he was busted dozing in his car in White Plains, The Post has learned. 

Scott, 44, was nabbed at 4:17 a.m. Tuesday when cops caught him snoozing in a 2018 Toyota on South Lexington Avenue near the federal courthouse, White Plains Police Capt. James Spencer said Wednesday. The embattled GM refused to give blood or submit to a breathalyzer but underwent a field sobriety test and failed, Spencer said.

There is no excuse for this. Failed a field sobriety test and refused a breathalyzer? Come on. The Mets in the Cohen ownership era hasn’t been doing to great with front office choices. 

 

 

 

@Mets, Where were the Players during the Honoring of the Fallen Soldiers?

 

@Mets @StevenACohen2 not to start another #Mets controversy. But why is it only 4 Mets players (McNeil Nimmo, JD, Pillar)came out to honor our fallen soldiers & National Anthem. While the whole @Marlins was out on the field? Kind of disrespectful. #LGM pic.twitter.com/dpqSuYEKUS

Hey Mets, what's going on here with this? I don't want to throw anyone under the bus yet but what happened to the Mets players? Feel free to reach out to me with what the organization's side of this is. 

Dave wasn’t the only one to notice.

Please forward this to Mr. Alderson,

While the Mets do a great job with veteran of the game, it was disheartening to only see McNeil, Nimmo and coach Jauss on the field honoring the 13 Marines that died in Afghanistan. There were 21 Marlins on the field led by Don Mattingly with hats over hearts. Where was Rojas? It was a chance for Baez and Lindor to look like they care and have class. Marines deserve honor for protecting our country. Not to honor Marines killed in the line of duty is shameful. I was in 113 row 24 seats 1 and 2 last night. I felt like leaving when I saw 21 Marlins and 3 Mets on the field for the ceremony.  The Mets never come in first, but they almost always lead the league in classles selfish people and acts.Porter, Calloway, Baez, Lindor, Alonso. A who's who of classes people and worse. Too bad Trevor Bauer got away, he fits in with the Mets. I am probably missing a few. Maybe Daniel Murphy should have given the fans the finger. You might have given him a long term contract.

 Should I buy a bunch of these to sell to Mets fans going to the home games rest of the season?
