The newest little Mets fan has arrived! He was so excited for a Mets run that he made his debut 2.5 weeks early 🧡💙
We are so in love! It’s been the most beautiful whirlwind!
when christopher was diagnosed with duchenne muscular dystrophy, doctors told us he wouldn’t live past the age of 18.
he defied those odds by almost seven years.
i love you, baby brother, forever and ever and always. thank you for making me a better person. miss you already.
to the best

fan i will ever know,
i miss you already. thank you for helping me fall even more in love with the game of baseball. thank you for showing me the true meaning of ya gotta believe.
may christopher's life be an inspiration to us all.
a quick reminder that pete alonso
▪️ donated 10% of his home run derby winnings to 2 nonprofits
▪️ launched his own foundation, homers for heroes
▪️ paid for special cleats to be made for every

RIP Buddy Harrelson. Thank you for not only being a great Met, but also a great human. My brother cherished this picture of you letting him wear your 1986 World Series ring so much!
yesterday was the first mets game i’ve been to since my brother passed away. i still have yet to go back to citi field, but i thought going to a ballpark i haven’t been to before would be a good baby step. and it was! i had so much fun & realized how much i missed going to games.

BREAKING: the
@mets
have just made a major signing….
their newest little fan is coming this August! 💙
@StevenACohen2
just give baby boy a couple of decades and he’ll be ready to actually be signed!
mets fans, we just witnessed history.
baseball fans, we just witnessed history.
with forty home runs, pete alonso has set the all-time NL rookie record.
and we still have a month and a half of baseball left.
I will not get excited about the Mets winning one game after losing eight straight.

I will not get excited about the Mets winning one game after losing eight straight.
instead of being discouraged after last night, he is out there, working hard, in a position that is not innate to him. he is a first baseman, not an outfielder. but, he's not giving up.
I have seen several people including Carlos Beltran in their least favorite
#Mets
list. You're entitled to your opinion, but the truth is this...he's one of the best offensive players the Mets ever had.
in my religion we hold a 40 day memorial for those who passed. today was christopher’s. it was a beautiful service.
i wanted to take a moment & thank everyone who prayed for my family, for christopher & especially to those who held a service for him. it is appreciated so much♥️
Speaking of
@lamelaza_7
, he was one of the nicest people to my brother when we went to Spring Training back in 2009. He not only took this picture with him, but sat down and chatted with him. Christopher still tells everyone to this day "Jose Reyes called me papi!"
one year ago today was the last game i’d ever go to with my brother. we didn’t know then that this would be it & i still fully can’t believe it
a reminder not to take anything for-granted. if you‘re able to watch tonight’s game with your loved ones, i encourage you to do so 🧡💙
My brother is the biggest Star Wars and Mets fan I know. I got him tickets for tonight’s game months ago.
@Mets
, there’s no way he can sit outside in this cold and rain with his Muscular Dystrophy. Please let me know if there’s anything you can do!

is getting retired!
"i was very emotional when steve called to let me know about the number retirement. this is the highest honor an organization can bestow upon a player. i also want to thank mets fans, who have treated me like family since i arrived in 1983.” - keith

but we’re not. we’re not for all the right reasons, but it still sucks.
we’re in this together. remember, ya gotta believe.

Two in a row. A great win. Star Wars. A night Christopher won’t forget.

for stopping by to say hi. Christopher had a blast, and is so happy!
i was born to two diehard mets fans, but today i learned about more about the story.
mama ioannou: “that’s how your father and i became friends. our teacher let us listen to the world series in 1969 and we were both cheering for the mets.”
the complete, fitting irony that the
#mets
didn’t cheat, haven’t even won a world series in over three decades, and yet are still somehow involved in one of the biggest cheating scandals in baseball and we’re going to hear about it all season.
@Pete_Alonso20
@The7Line
pete, you quickly became one of christopher’s favs, b/c of your on the field actions but especially b/c of the ones off the field. he talked for days about what you did to commemorate 9/11. after my first credentialed game, he asked all about you. i really can’t thank you enough.
Today is
#WorldDuchenneAwarenessDay
, a day I encourage you all to take 5 minutes & read about Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy - the disease my little brother battles every single day.
Today we celebrate Christopher & everyone fighting or who has fought DMD. You’re my inspiration ♥️

tonight was my last mets game until september as i will be traveling back to the motherland (🇬🇷) and am entirely missing the next homestand.
mets fans, thanks all for following along.
@mets
, thanks for making this homestand incredible. finish it out strong tomorrow! get loud!!
Last season, my brother made me wait on line at Citi for hours to get him the Thor Noah Syndergaard bobblehead. Naturally for Christmas I had to get him a
@Noahsyndergaard
Thor autographed baseball — wish I recorded his face when he opened it!
After discussing the Astros for a few moments Knicks announcer Mike Breen said "it doesn't matter, the Mets are going to win the World Series this year anyway."

the mets rotation right now is good, there’s no arguing that.
but.. it has been good for the past few seasons. and where has that gotten us? not to the postseason since the 2016 WC.
the mets needed help in the bullpen, and they didn’t go get that.

i love baseball more than most. playoffs are a huge deal. but there are some things in life, like the birth of your child, that are much more important.
if you are arguing that it’s wrong for daniel hudson to be taking paternity leave, you are the one that is wrong.
