That doesn't look much like a cookie cutter to me.

The asphalt parking lot is a better ballpark then Shea.

Seems like if the Mets had a nice new stadium, they may become a little bit more attractive of a team. It's hard for me to watch the Mets at Shea because that place is such a dump.

300' down the right field line is pitcher-friendly?

That's what I thought as well...

391 in Right center is pretty deep. This picture makes it look like the outfield has quite a bit of area.

Minute Maid has deep alleys, too. This smacks of a crawford boxes for lefties. I hope there's a high wall, at least.

Ebbets Field, you have a baby on the way. It's going to be a replica of the Brooklyn stadium.

Where are the bullpens?

I think it's more comparable to a steeper Pesky Pole than the Crawford boxes. The Crawford boxes stay close for quite a bit of left field, and then goes back to 362. The diagram makes it look like the NY park goes straight back to 391.

Looks like in the outfield.

Looks like in the outfield.

Are you talking about the single area to the right of the batters eye or the two areas in LF? Because the two areas in LF would be the first pens I've ever seen behind the bleachers. The one to the right of the batters eye doesn't look big enough for two sets of pens.

They're leaving those at Shea.

I know it won't happen, but I hope they keep the name Mets Ballpark. It's nice, simple, to the point, and it rolls off the tongue nicely.

Meh, anything is better then Shea I guess, but I really cannot wait for the Camden Yards of the next generation is made.

I like it... I can't stand watching games at Shea.. Such a dump.

 

I like how they already have the Subway (Diet Pepsi, Bud, and SBC too) ads up in the sketches.

Looks llike a two-tiered bullpen in right-center.

Shea may be a dump but I like the easy parking and ease to the highway.
