At Wednesday afternoon’s New York State of the State Address, Governor Andrew Cuomo spoke about the sports franchises that belong to our state. Of course since the Mets are one of them, their latest purchase in Syracuse this past year was a big deal and worth mentioning.
Cuomo shared some information about the acquisition of the Triple-A franchise by the Amazins and noted that they would undergo a change in name once they take over next season.
No longer would they be known as the Syracuse Chiefs, but instead, they’ll now be called the Syracuse Mets.
