i agree, but that’s what they put on the racks…

How are you even comparing them? Thats a high expectation for a kid. He hasn’t even been playing on this level that long so how do you know that he can’t play? Thank God your not the Yankees front office man.

I can’t remember what the others did, though.

They were a mostly a group of Red Sox fans as well, I do know that, lol.

gb7-
you just made me make a connection i hadn’t before.

do you remember when i said that carl taylor used to fish with ted williams every sunday when he was 15-16 years old in the florida keys ?

guess who was the yankee bullpen catcher when rivera came up?

yup, carl taylor.

if you want to see one of my favorite photos click on my username. there’s a photo of carl and me throwing in pre season when he was the yankee bullpen catcher catching mariano.

carl had quite the baseball life. he was also boog powell’s half brother.

I envy you (God…I can’t believe that I said that) that you and PAT M were able to get that far inside the game. I never had much chance to talk to pro ball players other than one time when I was introduced to HOfer stan Covelesky and he was talking with a bunch of kids that had fathers who were part of the Kiwanis Club and I went with a neighbor.

Other than that, the closest I ever got to instructions from a pro…..nahhh…better not talk about her instructions….errrr….was when Orville Moody told me to find another, less dangerous hobby than golf. I only assumed that he meant “less dangerous” for him and others.

I would love to here that sort of conversations, especially back then.
