There's a wonderful piece by Bob Klapisch at Baseball Analysts, remembering his confrontation with Bobby Bonilla nearly fifteen years ago. I've often read that today's ballplayers are dull material in the locker room compared to the good old days. The Mets, circa 1986, were a candid, colorful group (to say the least). The same team, six years later, was anything but.
Dave was called a "national treasure" by Rob Neyer. Seriously. Comments about this article can be sent to him through the miracle of e-mail.
