Memories of Gerson Bautista

Five appearances for the 2018 Mets, four that involved giving up runs. His last action occurred in one of the signature nights of this dreadful season, the thirteen-inning affair of June 2 when deGrom and seven relievers struck out 24 Cubs to absolutely no avail (well, they got 24 outs, albeit in a losing cause0. During the World Series, when the Red Sox pen was having a bumpy inning, I thought to myself, "I wonder if they wish they had Gerson Bautista back." I kept hoping Jose Bautista would pinch-hit for him.

Tall drink of water. Awesome hair. Wore his hat with great style. Seemed to not know where the hell the ball was going when it left the bazooka that dangled from his shoulder.

The most Gersonable of all 2018 Mets. Supposedly one of the prize gets in Addison Reed deal, underwhelmingness reminiscent of the 2003 reliever trade haul that brought us unforgettable Mets like Royce Ring and Edwin Almonte. Predicting he has an outside shot to break Octavio Dotel's 13-team record.

Gerson will be Diaz someday, if only for a season or so.
