Thigh Glazer has a 143 ERA+ with the Mets

It's amazing because he got there in complete Kendrick like fashion. 2009-2010 especially.

Theriot's ISO since 2006:

.080
.052
.085
.043
.070

OPS+ over that same stretch:
71
92
83
71
86

Wow.

ETA: Just noticed that B-R ranks him one slot behind Alberto Callaspo on its all-time hitters list. Hey, if you can't get Callaspo, might as well get the next best thing, amirite?

Adam Eaton The Prospect Gets Checks Meant For Adam Eaton The Former Pitcher

"Cody [Ransom]'s like, ‘Those aren't yours,'" Eaton recalled. "I'm like, ‘What do you mean they aren't mine? They're in my name.' He goes, ‘That's the other Adam Eaton. Do you live there?' It had the address on the front. ‘No.' I go, ‘Do I have to give them back?' He's like, ‘Yeah. You have to give them back.' I thought it over and I'm like, ‘Yeah, I've got to give them back.'"

But sitting at his locker earlier this spring, he had a pile of checks dumped in his lap: more than $120,000 worth.


Bad old Adam Eaton still receives 6 figures (per year?), well after he washed out of baseball.

They get a pretty nice pension. I wonder how it works exactly? Would they be drawing from it already?
Teams lie, sometimes for good reasons, sometimes for bad. They do it to get an advantage while they look at the trade market or just because they can
