Possible Tampa Serial Killer Said To Have Worked For The Mets




There has been a serial killer down in Florida over the last few months and authorities think they have their suspect. Howell Emanuel Donaldson, has been arrested in connection of being that serial killer. Of course the way the world works he is tied to working for the Mets and being a former student and basketball player at St John’s University.




From The NY Post
“Donaldson had a brief stint as a walk-on player in the 2011-12 season for the Red Storm, school sources said. The point guard from Alonso HS in Tampa never played in any games.

The profile also said he worked for the Mets in the 2016 season as a “guest experience host,” scanning tickets for season subscribers and VIPs and operating elevators.”

Does anyone that worked at Citi Field during that time remember him?

NY Daily News Headline: Mets hope new pitching coach Dave Eiland’s fresh voice will help turn around struggling staff


Mets hope new pitching coach Dave Eiland’s fresh voice will help turn around struggling staff -

You don't say. Who writes these headlines? The article itself is much better though.

From the NY DAILY NEWS 
LaTroy Hawkins knew he wasn’t pitching well. The Yankees fans who booed him knew he was struggling. The Yankees front office and the coaching staff all knew Hawkins was having a hard time. There was just no hiding it.
And Hawkins, the veteran reliever, appreciated that Dave Eiland just came out and talked about it with him.
“He’s honest. Sometimes, he’s brutally honest, but he lets you know what’s going on, what he’s thinking and what the team is thinking,” the former Met and Yankee reliever said. “A pitching coach’s job is to help you get better and Dave is there to do that for you.
“The bottom line is that a pitcher has to make the most of working with a pitching coach. Dave Eiland will work with you and help you, but as a pitcher, you have to work with him, you have to put the work in,” Hawkins said. “I am a big fan of Dave Eiland and I think he can help a staff.

“But the pitchers have to do the work, and they will make the difference.” 
That's a good vote of confidence for the new coach. Do we think certain pitchers will put in the work though? Will they listen or do they "know" everything now? Will there be push back because certain pitchers were pro Warthen? Guess we'll see.
