Countdown to Mets Fantasy Camp 3 Days to Go.

Every year for the last 3 years as Spring gives way to Fall, Mets season merges into NY Rangers season, I have been able to keep the baseball side of my brain occupied with thoughts of Mets Fantasy Camp. This year more so then ever, in the past I have simply gone down to cover the week long camp as a reporter, this season I am headed down to actually participate as a player. Each year I have tried to find unique ways of counting down the days until camp and sharing them with Mets fans, So this year I will do the countdown by Jersey numbers, When possible I will post my 3 favorite Mets who have worn that number, some numbers are harder then others.

#3

#1

Bud Harrelson

Everybody's Buddy, amazing range, my most vivid memory of Derrel McKinley Harrelson comes from the WOR channel 9 open for the Mets game on TV when Buddy gets better vertical lift then any current Ny Knick to pull in a line drive.Bud was a human highlight film at short before the Web-Gem Days! The other one of course is when he took on superstar Pete Rose to lead the Mets in the 1973 playoffs---he will always be a Mets Classic! Here is my interview with Bud from WLIE 540am SPORTSTALKNY

#2

Curtis Granderson

While Curtis did not put up the numbers Mets Fans expected in his first year, he never stopped working or coming to the park with a smile on his face. As awful as his season was he still managed 20 home runs and 66 RBIS, I am expecting a big bounce back season from the Grandy Man in 2015. Here is my interview with him from 2014.
