The Amazon Mets

So, what affect does the Mets' new neighbors in Queens have on the Mets? Does the 7 train become a nightmare? When the Citi Field naming rights expire does it become Prime Park? Do Jeff Bezos and Jeff Wilpon form a Jeff Club? Place your predictions here.

I hope they move Citi Field to Long Island City, where it should have been built in the first place.

I predict it has almost zero impact. I mean, maybe Amazon signs on as a sponsor somewhere just because. Excited for my random mets.com/amazonPrimePreSale next year.

It can't be Amazon park... because the Mets only sign players past their Prime! Hi-yo!!!

May interfere with the Buckets' plan to buy a joint in $unnys$ide

I'd guess negligible. The Mariners aren't affected by Amazon beyond the effect that it has on Seattle's economy in general.

We'd like to get a slightly larger joint than the one we are in (1 xtra bathroom, 1 extra bedroom), near a main subway line, that we can afford, with a rental unit for mortgage now/mother-in-law later, and Sunnyside is one of the few places we can still do that in NYC. And barely as it is!

Yeah, Sunnyside Gardens is really nice, smallish houses built in the 20s and 30s, but with yards and shared parks, near the 7. Plus its in Queens, the new Brooklyn

Centerfield Nov 14 2018 04:14 PM Re: The Amazon Mets

It is really nice. Some of them you can get some outdoor space in the back. It's near parks, good food. Plenty of Irish bars. Super close to the subway. Bonus: Very easy ride to Mets-Willets Point!!!

Don't think there are any breweries in Sunnyside though.

I don't see the Mets creating a farm team to play in the Amazon. Who's going to go all the way to Brazil for road games? Dumb.

I debated with myself if The Amazon' Mets would make the pun more apparent, but it just didn't look right.
