Mets GM Brodie Van Wagenen saying “Come get us” makes me cringe

Since taking over as general manager for the New York Mets, we’ve all seen as many different opinions as possible about Brodie Van Wagenen. The former agent turned rookie GM has been undoubtedly a smooth talker everywhere he has gone. Talking can only go so far.

On Wednesday, Van Wagenen added a new phrase to say when you pull the string attached to his backside: “Come get us.”

To boil it down and provide some context, he’s telling the rest of the National League East to meet him at the flagpole after the ninth period school bell.
