Couldn’t Coca-Cola Feature a Better Met?

Yesterday, while at Target, I stopped to get a Diet Coke. With the summer nearing, they’re back to putting names on bottles. Here’s what I would up grabbing:

Vargas as in Jason Vargas.

With Coke now having the Coke Corner at Citi Field, you’d think they can do better than that.

deGrom. Syndergaard. Lugo. Gsellman.

Really, any other pitcher.

In retrospect, maybe it was genius. After all, the soda was done in the first inning. After that, there was nothing left leading me to find something else. And that Vargas bottle was quickly discarded.

On the bright side, I didn’t have to overpay for it or carry it around empty for two years, so that was a positive.
