I wonder if she used pine tar?

M. Donald Grant was the first Mets' asshole.

What a gem he was. I can still remember the midnight massacre, when he traded almost all the key players, for what amounted to a group of nobodies, except Joe Torre who was washed up.

When you think back, this was probably one of the first salary dumps in baseball history.

I think Connie Mack was the first dumper of salaries back with his early A's.

Yes, you are probably right.

I can't believe that Pete can believe a guy like Koosman who cheated on his taxes and is in federal jail right now over an honest guy like Gil who is gone and can't speak for himself.

If Gil had Koosman doctor the ball, good for him.That was always part of the game, back then. Even now, if you can fool the umpire, good for you.
