I saw Metspolice posted the pictures that the @mets account tweeted, I'm merely the spreader of info.

It can't be fixed. Interleague took all of the luster off of the All Star game, these guys face each other all year now, even moreso next year when Houston jumps.

Sorry, Bud, it's a dud.

the luster was coming off anyway. Interleague? Why, did the Mets see Mike Trout or Mark Trumbo this year? last year? Did Rangers fans get to see Harper or Dickey?

Dickey got screwed...LaRussa put him in as an afterthought.
