It's March 24th. Welcome in. This is New York Met's News Today, where team coverage meets AI. The New York Met's owner, Steve Cohen, made headlines by ruling out a team captain. He specifically said no to naming star shortstop Francisco Lindor to the role. Cohen went further, stating there will never be a captain as long as he owns the team. His reasoning centers on letting the locker room handle leadership naturally. Each year, players can decide who steps up as their leader, without an official title. Fans and analysts seem fine with the call. They point out how rosters shift quickly in baseball, especially for a big spender like Cohen, who makes bold trades. This comes amid high expectations for Met's players to arrive ready. One pitcher showed up throwing at peak velocity from last season, exciting the staff after his all-star and side-young caliber year. It underscores pro-sports basics, like staying in shape before cam, avoiding issues seen elsewhere, such as a top hockey prospect limited by poor.
Conditioning. The Met's are focusing on team dynamics their way this season.
