Quote: Ryan Church loves New York

In late September, on WFAN, Mike Francesa said he had been told that Ryan Church ‘hated it here,’ while adding, ‘I know for a fact that he didn’t like the Mets, he didn’t like the city and he was not a happy guy here.’

Church denied ever making such a statement, according to the Daily News in October, and again in November on MLB.com.

Meanwhile, again, in an in-depth report about the right-fielder, in last week’s Daily News, Church said:

“I never said it.  I have no clue where that came from.  I put a call in to make sure front office knew that was a bunch of bull.  I love New York – it’s where I want to finish my career.  I’m looking forward to putting my Mets uniform on.”
