If you come out to 'Meet the 2022 Syracuse Mets' on Opening Day this year, you'll also have a chance to meet a legend from storybook 1986 Amazin' Mets.

Here's a look at the latest free-agent signings and trades involving New York's baseball teams entering the 2022 season.

Turk Wendell isn't a "big city" kind of guy. From growing up in Massachusetts' Norman Rockwellsque Berkshires Mountains, to currently residing in deer hunting heaven Iowa, Wendell squeezed in 11 MLB seasons - parts of five of those seasons pitching in New York City.

Former New York Mets first baseman Keith Hernandez is going to be awarded the highest compliment from a baseball club this coming summer.

I've done something bold. I've taken the ten professional "big four" sports teams in the state of New York, and I've ranked their jerseys from one to ten. Do you agree?

Finally. Gil Hodges is elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York.

Noah Syndergaard is staying in New York a bit longer before he leaves for the West Coast, and is spending $16,500 a month to live in this incredible SoHo apartment.

Well, if the players "booing" the fans with their "thumbs down" ritual this week wasn't enough for you, we have more. If you like drama from the team that occupied first place in the National League East for most of the season only to free fall into third place as much as 8.5 games out as of last Friday, well, hang on. I can't imagine it but it gets crazier. The New York Mets "acting or interim" General Manager Zach Scott was arrested this morning. This is the guy that replaced Jared Porter who was kicked out after about six minutes on job for inappropriate behavior that apparently everyone in baseball knew about except for the Mets.

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. The New York Mets precarious lead in the National League East is down to 1/2 game over the Philadelphia Phillies. And guess where the Mets travel to for a Friday match-up? Yup, you guessed it, Philadelphia.

The New York Mets finally pulled the trigger on a deal, agreeing to acquire an outspoken MLB star a little more than one hour before Friday's MLB trade deadline.
