Another in the long line of Mets pickups of all-star has beens. Gave up on Jorge Julio too soon.

I love how everyone talks about how old El Duque is. I have heard everything from 37 to 49. By the time the season is over I bet he'll be 60. I am just happy to have him here.

Oh great, another Yankee. By signing cross-town Has-Beens, we are quickly becoming the 1996 Yankees. I certainly don't want to win this way.

Orlando was a component of the incessant Yankees hype machine that made it unbearable to be a Met fan (sort of like being a Catholic in Ulster). Remember that absurd commercial that fashioned his pitching as a new dance craze? It had Cone in the bathroom of the night club (no, not crying or with his lady friends) trying out the dance. The commercial even had a jungle called “Do El Duque!”

When he pitches, he always seems to be worth the price of admission. A great big-game pitcher. Getting rid of that bum Julio for him was a steal.
