Yoenis Cespedes’ not-so-little piggy is off to the butcher.
The outfielder confirmed Wednesday that the hog’s days were numbered, telling reporters that the swine would be sent to slaughter.
A day earlier, the Mets said that Cespedes had no plans to kill the prized 275-pound porker, but that was apparently semantics: The team meant that Cespedes wouldn’t do it himself. According to a source, the Mets were concerned about any possible backlash that might come with revealing Cespedes’ plan for the animal.
