No team has a support staff quite like the New York Mets. We're still waiting for the names that former batboy Kirk Radomski fingered as recipients of performance-enhancers after he pled guilty to charges of steroid trafficking and money laundering in April and now comes word that one of the team's former massage therapists was also operating on the wrong side of the law. Carlos Araque is being sued by another masseuse who leased office space from him in Manhattan. Marty Jaramillo, who has worked for the Knicks and the Mets, claims that Araque was also renting the space for different kinds of therapy.
The suit said Jaramillo, who has worked for the Knicks and the Mets, subsequently learned the spa was being rented out "for sex swing parties and adult pornographic photo/film shoots."
Jaramillo's suspicions were first raised when he read that his landlord was arrested for operating without a license and sexually assaulting a female client.
Prosecutors say he violated a woman during a massage on Jan. 30, penetrating her manually and performing oral sex on her against her wishes.
Araque's spa, Essential Therapy, won an award from New York Magazine in 2006 for what he called his "make-nice" massage. It was described as being "enough to put you to sleep" which is when Araque would begin to make nice. You'll then wake up and feel "fully refreshed."
Araque massaged Mike Piazza and Jose Reyes, among others, while he worked for the Mets but isn't accused of having anything to do with a photo shoot that left Reyes and David Wright looking like 80's-era rent boys. Piazza's blond adventure, however, is still up for much discussion.
LETS GO METS!!!! 3.5 games ahead of the Braves!

My best team of MLB is The New York Mets . This why I always fallow their games especially whenever I have some time. I’m always trying not o miss any of their game and hear about the team’s news. But The New York Mets tickets get more pricy especially when there are some hot games. But, if we’re really good fans we should try not to be mean when we’re talking about a favourite teams. It’s not only the Mets tickets that got pricy, but there are other major teams too, so the team needs our support and we should provide as much as we can.
