The Mets completed a series in Colorado over the weekend and decided to dress up with a Western theme for their flight to Houston. The players wore cowboy outfits, and pitcher R.A. Dickey seemed to have the best time of all. Dressed as a sheriff, he shared the pictures you see above on his Twitter account. On the left he’s with the outlaw Johan Santana, and on the right he’s sticking up catcher Mike Nickeas.
Below are several other players in their cowboy outfits:

Sure, the Mets may be following the Rays’ lead with the themed road trip, but we’re not complaining. Baseball is a long season — gotta do something to keep it entertaining.
