As the Mets enter the playoffs, the outstanding broadcasting duo of Mex and Cohen will be replaced by the deplorable Buck and McCarver.

We post this picture in memory of Gary and Mex who will likely be relegated to SNY in studio work, as we have to endure the broadcasting stylings of the Fox network. I personally want to thank both of them for making this the best broadcasting season the Mets have had on television since i've been a fan.

The Mets have always had a fine radio presence with Cohen before he moved to SNY, Gary Thorne, Bob Murphy, Ed Coleman and Howie Rose, but now the Mets finally have a reason for people to have the volume turned up when watching the games on television. The Mets SNY booth is one of, if not the most informative and entertaining in baseball.

Until next year, we wear our rally caps in your honor.

Hat tip to Can't Stop The Bleeding for the photo.

“Such is Keith Hernandez. He's arrogant, vain, condescending,
impolitic, opinionated, judgmental, profane, sarcastic, obnoxious and
scornful. And because of it, rather than in spite of it, he's among the
best pure baseball analysts we've ever heard or ever hoped to hear.” -Phil Mushnick (The New York Post)
