WTF with the Mets pregame show?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Maybe this is the first time I've watched this season...



They're giving betting odds on whether Howie Kendrick will get a hit tonight or whether Pete Alonso will hit a homer. (Bet $100 and if he homers you win $265.)



Are the Wilpons looking to make some extra money by making book on SNY?)

I guess it's kind of an additional broadcast endorsement of the sponsor, maybe

part of the advertising contract package.



I'm all for legalized gambling, but pimping odds on stuff on a team-owned broadcast

is kinda dumb to me. Kids are watching, people with gambling issues too.

There's no secret that sports and individual teams are starting to embrace sports gambling as a source of income and synergy.
