Former Brooklyn Cyclone, and New York Mets second base prospect, Daniel Muno, was suspended by Major League Baseball for 50 games upon testing positive for PEDs/Banned Substances.
MLB issued the following statement:

As a season ticket holder of the Brooklyn Cyclones Baseball Club, and being a Brooklyn native, I have an untethered affinity from the Mets, for any current or former Cyclones player. Many of the present Flushing Mets have passed through Brooklyn. So, I feel fortunate with regards to being able to see many Mets’ prospects before most of the greater scope of Mets’ Fans do.
In a manner of speaking, the Brooklyn Cyclones are my team. They are Brooklyn. And this twelve year old club which plays in my backyard, has become a very important part of my Summers in the Borough of Kings. So it wounds me to hear of this development.
In 2011, Danny Muno (pictured #16 with Fresno State Bulldogs) batted .355 for the Cyclones in fifty-four games played. The twenty-three year old’s career is now in question, and his future in doubt. I would be less upset by this news had this Mets’ prospect bypassed my Boardwalk Bombers Club of Coney Island.

I live, work, and play, in Brooklyn. I am a U.S. Army Veteran; a Husband; and a Father. I coached Little League for 10 great years. I am you. My name is Mike. And I am a Mets Fan. I’m a self-proclaimed pragmatist. But that’s ultimately for you to decide. My promise is to give you my best effort in presenting engaging METerial. I claim to have total Mets recall since about the 1974-75 seasons or so. I know I’ll have to tap into many of those memories to touch a chord or two along the way. Like me or loathe me, I’d love to interact with you through comments and social media. You can find me on Twitter. I am also the author of my own personal blog -
