Saw some early postings that Steady Eddie passed away early this morning. First a Mets Fantasy Camper on Facebook that has since been deleted. And now Art Shamsky’s girlfriend (teresataylorpro) on Instagram.

Rip to Mr Met himself

If the team really cared, they’d correspond with the alumni. Especially the older ones. Just have them stay in touch, keep the team informed of any changes, etc. Unfortunately they do very little and I’ve spoken to players that notice. Some have traveled to NY and Citifield and got the ‘who are you?...

Sorry just found out about this today. Many of these gents go unnoticed in their passing. I think Danny Napoleon was close to a year and a half. Here’s a pic of Murph from a friend that visited him in 2014. He loved the Mets and greeted my friend wearing that hat. [img][img]
