Not the best David Peterson on offer; I'm a bit concerned.
Thank heavens for our sterling bullpen!

I almost fainted when Gary Cohen suggested that now that the Dodgers had released Boom-Boom's brother, the Mets could reach out and reunite them in the orange 'n blue.

Excellent idea! Díaz y Díaz (Los Dos Díazos?) would look great in the matching orange 'n blue…of Syracuse.
(That's what Gary meant, right?)

Gary - NO. I love you to bits, and I will charitably ascribe this motion to old people getting sentimental about family, because one of those guys is well enough to bring the house down already...

I would have thought that Gary had been around long enough to know that, when trying to build a bullpen, the top priority should not be targeting guys who have been
released. Huh.
I mean,
I'm a free agent, too. I'd be glad to play for the minimum and I know how to duck. Doesn't mean I'm the answer, though.
