Great Job, Omar
A 36-year old shit hitting catcher destined for AAA is totally worth the trouble and insult to the fan base!:
Chris Coste is burning bridges with Mets fans before he even crossed them.
The ex-Phillies catcher/first baseman signed with the Mets today, just three days after belittling his new team in an interview with a Philadelphia sports Web site.
After telling CSNPhilly.com that he “will always be a Phillie,” Coste said he had been hesitant to sign with Philadelphia’s arch-rival.
“It was the Mets,” Coste said, according to the site. “It’s the last team I ever saw myself playing for. I knew I was going to accept [the contract], but had to think about it for a few days.”
Glad he’s dedicated to the cause! Can’t wait to root for him! Anything else you guys wanna do to slap us in the face? Why not sign John Rocker and give him his own talk show on SNY, while you’re at it?
