While most bloggers accounts match up I noticed a disturbing trend emerging. It seems that many of the bloggers were completely ignoring some of the more bizarre, controversial, or downright inflammatory things that Sandy was saying. If you read other accounts it's almost like he didn't say any of these things. Clearly, the Mets collective of chosen bloggers is covering for the GM with the hopes of keeping their access and all the free steak sandwiches that come with it.
Fortunately for you, The Apple cannot be bought. Here are all of Sandy Alderson's more edgy quotes from last night's call in their entirety. Enjoy!
On Travis d'Arnaud:
"It's true that we've asked Travis to not block the plate. We've also asked him not to run the bases or slide EVER." - Sandy Alderson #Mets— Randy Medina (@ReadTheApple) February 27, 2013
On the outfield:
Alderson: "I wouldn't eliminate Bonilla as a potential OF candidate." #Mets— Randy Medina (@ReadTheApple) February 27, 2013
On Amway:
Alderson: "I expect Amway products to play a key role in our surprising run to a world title in 2013." #Mets— Randy Medina (@ReadTheApple) February 27, 2013
On spending responsibly:
Alderson: "Free agents are like prostitutes, simply spending more doesn't always get you the best quality." #Mets— Randy Medina (@ReadTheApple) February 27, 2013
On timing:
On R.A. Dickey:
Sandy: "I'm the guy in the Kung Fu movie just standing there during a fight. When I finally do something, you know it's gonna be good" #Mets

Alderson: "Everyone else was afraid to say it, but R.A. Dickey was kind of a c***." #Mets— Randy Medina (@ReadTheApple) February 27, 2013
