The New York Mets and Their Intellectual Elite
Following the signing of Chris Young, Adam Rubin had this to say:
“The 6-foot-10 Young played basketball and baseball at Princeton. Capuano was Phi Beta Kappa at Duke. Dickey was an English major at the University of Tennessee and is extremely well-read. Left-handed reliever Taylor Tankersley is also known as an intellectual, and his father is a nuclear physicist.”
While the Mets clubhouse lending library should be impressive next season, Crash Davis summed it up best: “Don’t think; it can only hurt the ballclub.”
