New enough, long enough, properly referenced with no evidence of plagiarism or overly close paraphrasing. Since the original nomination, the stadium section has been spun out to its own article, so the original hook and ALT1 are no longer applicable and I've struck them out. ALTs 2 and 3 are properly formatted, short enough, interesting enough, and inline cited to reliable sources. Not a self-nom so no QPQ requirement. Only problem was the stub rating on the talk page, which I have now fixed. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 11:15, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

::::::I also think there's better possibilities for a hook, to me the Mets thing is a peripheral issue. Particularly as the NYT reference used says "Mets officials declined to comment on the deal".
