NEW YORK — Former Mets pitcher Marcus Stroman, who signed with the Cubs this winter after two and a half seasons in Queens, blasted the Mets organization, its fan base and GM Billy Eppler on Tuesday.
Stroman claimed the Mets front office turned a blind eye to the alleged vitriol that he experienced while playing for the team. He also said he received death threats from Mets fans.
He tweeted: “Endless death threats, being called a n----- often, hearing Black lives don’t matter, and playing for a front office who didn’t care about any of that. I will speak on this topic on my time and on my podcast at some point. Still dealt on the mound through all of that!”
