Let’s check in on the 46-54 Mets, who aren’t having a great season.

Long story short, the team agreed to create a subscription site along with Yahoo, a three-year agreement which would feature paid content plus special events for subscribers. Yahoo was set to pay the Mets one million dollars per year while targeting a March launch date, but it was delayed until June, still didn’t launch, and has now been scrapped for good, according to Andrew Marchand at the New York Post:

Do you remember the Yahoo Sports subscription Mets site that was going to be the start of a potential challenge to The Athletic’s paid model?

Well, it’s not happening. It is dead before it was ever alive.

The Post has learned that the Yahoo platform has gone the way of the Mets’ season — down the drain.

“We’ve realized that there are opportunities which have the ability to scale faster and give fans what they want quicker,” a Yahoo spokeswoman said in a statement to The Post. “We’ve learned a ton during this exploration and intend to use these insights to inform the future of the fan experience through Yahoo Sports.”

This is unfortunate.

Also notable is this little jab thrown at the team by the TV show Jeopardy, after the jump:

Feels like eons ago that the Mets were in the World Series, even though that was 2015. Now the squad is, unfortunately, once again the butt of jokes.
