Lenny Dykstra came out on Saturday against the “eagles” that forced Mets billionaire Mets owner Steve Cohen to make a Twitter account amid the GameStop riot.
“He should never have gotten on Twitter, it was only a matter of time before the eagles started flying,” the former Mets center-back, known as “Nails,” told The Post.
The owner of the billionaire he met said that “personal threats” unrelated to the team forced him to deactivate his account for now. Cohen’s hedge fund, Point 72, offered Melvin Capital a $ 750 million lifeline, which lost billions in bets on stocks such as GameStop in a so-called short squeeze orchestrated by amateur investors on Reddit.
“It’s just a waste of paper – a bunch of Reddit pages that I think are smarter than everyone will eventually get F-ing Dk!” Said Dykstra. “The man with gold always makes the rules.”
Dykstra continued: “NOTHING TO GAIN EVERYTHING LOST.”
The former MLBer also told the Redditors: “A lot of punks is not our fault that they were last selected in their small league team.”
Investors in the minor leagues have said they will not go back – and have even put up billboards in Times Square and across the country, urging believers to continue to hold the shares to push them even further.
