Mets Outfielder Becomes Violently Ill from His Own Undercooked Chicken

We're barely into Spring Training, but the New York Mets have already started Mets-ing like it's August.

One of their outfielders, the inevitable Brandon Nimmo, decided to cook himself a meal, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.

However, according to multiple sources inside the Mets organization, the 25-year old apparently doesn't know how to cook.
