Mets Mess

The Mets owners head to court today.

The Mets begin a three-game series at home against the Brewers tonight. They received encouraging news on the Jose Reyes front, with the real possibility that he will be activated next Tuesday.
But what you’ll want to know about the Mets future will be taking place in a federal district courtroom in New York.

Put simply, Sterling Equities, the Fred Wilpon-led group that owns the Mets, is being sued by the trustee for the Bernie Madoff victims for $1 billion. Arriving at that figure is complicated, and I have elaborated on it in greater detail elsewhere.

Stay tuned.
