A few years later, and I’m the reason my yankee fan friend watches Johan’s no-no.

I also thought of that as a possibility. Carter was a Florida guy that’s way I thought of him first.

But you know Baron and Cerrone were gushing and slobbering all over themselves when it became Tradition Field again.

Matthew Cerrone, MetsBlog.com:

Terrific! Of course, with all due respect to Digital Domain, I’m pretty sure I never actually stopped calling it Tradition Field. It always had a better ring to it, I got used to writing it, and that was that… I’m glad it’s back.

What a maroon!

Oh and breaking news, Michael Baron says Montero has electric stuff. Add him to the MetsBlog list Niese, Pelfrey, Batista, Familia, Isringhausen Part 2, Harvey, McHugh, Wheeler, Edgin, Schwinden, Beato, Gorski, Leathersich, Lyon, Rauch, etc.

Search “electric stuff” or just “electric” on Metsblog and have a good laugh.

Who doesn’t have electric stuff? Johan Santana (No Hitter) and R.A. Dickey (Cy Young).

Yes 911 and Mike Piazza was class but now the almighty John Buck instead. Yes the Met tradition of being 2nd rate.

But I am a fair and balanced guy and I do not believe there was any naming for Thurman Munson but we did get a Reggie Bar.

Great piece. Kid was one of my favorites. I tried to become a catcher (to no avail). Just one thing, can we chill a bit with this hero worship of TdA. I am EXTREMELY high on him and even though I love RA I love the trade even more but can we please give this a chance to breathe. Like I said, I love the trade and TdA’s potential, but the best way to make sure he doesn’t live up to it is to keep adding to his legend and expectations.
