Yoenis Cespedes Has Won Me Over

Published: Mar 1st, 2016 · 10:05 AM EST

I’ve been holding off on posting about Yoenis Cespedes’ penchant for driving a rotating stable of lux cars to Mets spring training, mostly because I’m predisposed to commence a gag reflex every time I have positive thoughts about the Mets, but I can’t do it anymore. Cespedes road a horse to work today. And it’s awesome:

Absolutely hilarious. This is unprecedented level of off-field comedy, and I can’t even be mad that it’s coming from a Met. I can only name like three guys in Phils camp anyway, so I’ve fully come to terms with getting my spring training fix elsewhere. Well done, Yo. Well done.

Side note: I remember when the Phillies used to be fun like this and now I’m sad.
