If you’re heading to a Cyclones home game any weekend this season, I want to tell you about a little discount the Cyclones are offering. I work for MTA NYC Transit, and as part of a MetroCard Deal promotion, if take the subway or bus to KeySpan Park and you mention MetroCard while purchasing tickets to any weekend home game, you’ll get 20% off Field Box seats, and 25% off Bleacher seats. Easy way to save a few bucks for later on at Nathan’s

It's so polished and professional, and it really keeps Cyclones fans fully informed about Brooklyn's comings and goings. Thanks for putting in the effort! By the way, any way of finding out what the heck happened to Angel Pagan??? I know he's on the DL with a shoulder injury, but it wasn't supposed to be a big deal. He's just disappeared, and there isn't a word about him in the mainstream sports media or the Mets broadcasts! Thanks again!

It's great to see that someone can possibly see the potential of an athlete who gives 100% / 100% of the time. Tobi is the kind of guy who will not take defeat lying down. He will work continuously to improve on his game until he betters himself and the team he is on. He is a team player, always was. I feel after this 2008 season that you will see great improvements of Tobi's work ethic and where it can potentially take him. Tobi was always a two positioned player and never concentrated just on pitching. Now that he does, (which may take a little longer compared to most) he will be a major threat with his arsenol. When it gets tough out there and it comes down to it, Tobi is the one that says give me the ball. He was always like that growing up, loving pressure situations. As you can see, as a dad, I'm very proud of what my son has accomplished and I'm sure as time goes on I will not be the only proud fan.
