Mets GM Brodie Van Wagenen, clearly in the best shape of his life, challenged fellow GMs to a Home Run Derby
In Brodie Van Wagenen, the Mets have a new general manager -- and also a pretty charismatic figure in the front office.
With just a few weeks left before pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training (!), Van Wagenen is getting closer to seeing Robinson Cano, Edwin Diaz, Jed Lowrie and his new-look Mets in action for the first time.
And he's stoked. Just look at this hype video he put together and shared with the masses on Wednesday:
Credit to Brodie for the self-effacing "I still need a lot of work my swing" at the end there.
So far, someone has taken him up on the offer ...
I do. Step in the box #butdontdigin ?https://t.co/RbKJ3QWuBC
