The Amazon Mets

[Guest Mets Willets Point]

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.

Could they lift it with a bunch of Amazon delivery drones?

[Ceetar]

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

[Chad ochoseis]

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

Are you really going to? Love Sunnyside. Lived there for 5 years.

May also interfere with Lefty Jr's plans to get an affordable place in Arlington, VA.

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!

Oh, a house. When you were talking about buying joints I got confused.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

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]

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!!!

[Ceetar]

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.

[Guest Mets Willets Point]

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