This is big news in Northern Wisconsin today:
A Mets player broke down crying on the field after he was mistakenly told he got traded in the middle of a game
A bizarre scene unfolded during game against the Padres when Mets shortstop Wilmer Flores started crying while on the field after a premature report broke that he had been traded.
The chaos began around the seventh inning when multiple reports broke stating that the Mets had agreed to a trade for Brewers All-Star center fielder Carlos Gomez.

I think that his critics should give him a break.

Stressful time of year for some of these guys. Gomez ended up in Houston when it all sorted itself out. Houston is really going for it. It's quite a rapid turnaround for that team.

And the Mets continue to display why they are the laughing stock of baseball.

Irk.....I hate the word " traded"......it sounds like sports people are slaves, indentured servants at best.
