More on Ed Kranepool and the Mets

It’s funny that someone won’t say who reached out to who to get Ed back in the fold.

“This is about Ed and trying to get some awareness for his battle right now with his kidney and hopefully this does a little something,” said Mets chief operating officer Jeff Wilpon, who sat in the dugout with Kranepool. “We appreciate everything Ed is doing and we’re just here to support him.

“It doesn’t matter who reached out to who. We’re happy to have Ed here. As you can see, he just spoke to Conforto for a while. He’s been around baseball so long, the things he can impart, just in a five-minute conversation with somebody like Michael. He’s done it with other players before. It’s just invaluable to us.”

And Kranepool needs help so it’s time to help.
