The Mets version of MLB's Actober commercials is available to view online. How cruel is that this out during this debacle we're in right now?
It's pretty good, but kind of painful to watch with our postseason hopes in the balance right now. But check it out.

Where is the Mets' Actober Commercial?
I posted a while ago about how much I like what MLB has done with their new Actober.com commercials starring Dane Cook.
But I now I have a beef with them. I've yet to see a Mets version of the Actober TV spots.
The Yankees have their own spot. The Indians and Brewers have one (although I'm not sure anybody cares). I vaguely remember one centered on the Red Sox. But where is the Mets' commercial?
The Mets would make a perfect commercial. We have more drama than any team I know. A bullpen that tries to lose games for us. A 5th starter that we select by picking names out of a hat. A first baseman who can't hit an inside fastball. A curse in left field that injures anyone who plays there. The ultimate villain in Scott Schoeneweiss. And of course the ultimate dynamic duo in David Wright & Jose Reyes.
Major League Baseball is free to take any of these talking points and use them in a new commercial starring the Mets. I only ask for a few tickets to be thrown my way and perhaps a David Wright autographed jersey.
If you haven't checked it out yet, go visit Actober.com and you'll find some classic baseball playoff moments as well as some pretty creative user generated content.

Check Out Actober.com
If you have yet to see the MLB commercial featuring Dane Cook, here it is and it's worth a look as it includes plenty of Mets' moments as it promotes postseason baseball.
After you check out the commercial, go visit Actober.com a promotional site run by Major League Baseball. There are some great postseason videos on there you can download and watch as well as some contests and whole bunch of content.
As I marketing guy I really appreciate the unique approach MLB is taking to promote the postseason in JULY! Talk about lead time. Still the Dane Cook MLB commercial is well done, and I still get chills watching Endy Chavez make "The Catch."
This Mets Lifer tips his hat to MLB for using a promotion to get people energetic about the upcoming playoffs while providing an entertaining site for fans.
