Trading a Cat For an Animal

IMAG0095

There’s a tinge of sadness in the release of Frank Catalanotto, mainly because of quotes like these:

“Chances are this is the end of my career.  I’m very happy to have had a chance to play for the Mets. I always wanted to play in New York.”

But it’s only a tinge of sadness.  For at the end of the day, this deed needed to be done.  Because after repeated attempts to dip Catalanotto into a fountain of youth which resulted in Frank almost drowning at least twice, the Mets had no choice but to cut bait with him after Monday’s game.  Finally, finally … The Animal is coming to a major league ballpark near you.  Yes, here comes Chris Carter, ladies and gents … in New York where he belongs.  It’s good enough news to almost make me forget that this team can’t hit.

Almost.
