Lenny Dykstra came out on Saturday against the “vultures” that forced Mets billionaire Steve Cohen to keep his Twitter account amid the GameStop riot.
“I should never have gotten on Twitter, it was only a matter of time before the vultures started circling,” the former Mets center player known as “Nails,” told The Post.
The owner of the multimillion-dollar meetings said unrelated “personal threats” to the computer forced him to deactivate his account for now. Cohen’s hedge fund, Point 72, offered a $ 750 million bailout to Melvin Capital, which lost billions in bets on stocks like GameStop in the so-called short squeeze orchestrated by Reddit-loving investors.
“It’s just a waste of paper, a bunch of Reddit pages that are thought to be smarter that everyone will end up getting their F-ing Dk!” Dykstra said. “The man with the gold always makes the rules.”
Dykstra continued, “NOTHING TO GAIN EVERYTHING TO LOSE.”
The former MLBer also nailed Redditors: “A lot of punks are not our fault that they were chosen last on their small league team.”
Investors in the minor leagues have said they are not backing down, and they even pulled out billboards in Times Square and across the country urging loyalists to continue holding stocks to increase them even further.
