Gary Carter Could Use Mr. Met Hug After Shunning

Gary Carter, Expo Hall-of-Famer and world champion Metropolitan, misses the Mets organization so much that he can’t stop asking for a job there, usually while someone else holds the position.  He also can’t stop quacking on the topic of the day, which is why he’s the manager of the Long Island Ducks of the Atlantic League.

Heck, Mets fans, he’ll even volunteer to catch a baseball thrown by another ex-baseball player in a ceremonial fashion if you’d just let him.  For free!  He’s a giver.  So why didn’t the Mets invite him to do so when they closed Shea or schedule him to open Citi Field?  That’s all Gary Carter wants to know.

Maybe he could work for Alex Rodriguez after calling for forgiveness of A-Rod for his steroid use (while refusing to make his golfing buddies mad by suggesting Rodriguez should make it into the Hall of Fame). He’d have to work from April to early October every year, though.  (Never through Halloween.)
