...as a spring training instructor that is lol. One of the greatest players of all-time will help the Mets, tutoring the players on some of the facets of the game that he was so good at. Specifically mentioned were Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran as two guys he'd work with about getting on base and stealing bases.

As for Rickey, whenever he seriously retires from the game (doesn't he still play in the independent leagues?), he's a first ballot hall of famer.

I once played catch with Ricky when I was working for the Expos. He threw 30 strait one hoppers off the turf and right into my glove, chest high. The guy was just so professional. He really played the game the way it was supposed to be played. I don't know why any team would want him on their coaching staff though, he's not a very personable guy, keeps to himself, and really ... is not that bright. Those who can do , don't teach. A shoe in for the hall !

I heard after the first practice that they couldn't find the bases.

Word has it, Rickey stole them.

Sorry Guys

Just couldn't resist

Wait a minute. Rickey Henderson? Rickey Henderson?

Isn't this guy like, Satchel Paige's age?

Doesn't he already have, like, twenty-seven thousand stolen bases?

Hasn't he basically played for every team in the major leagues two or three times?

When they make his bubble-gum card, do they have to use a point-two font to get in all of his stats?

"Whoa." (Keanu's)

It's good to know that some things stay the same.

Welcome back for the nth time, Rickey. Great to see you.

And cheers to all in the forum!
