Regardless of the sport, every team needs a Mike Harkey on their team.

With that job, he also takes on the responsibility of keeping the mood light when tensions are high.

Can’t just have everyone shitting bricks out there as the game gets late.

Quick story I think of with him is this story from former bullpen catcher Radley Haddad.

Well, the turns have tabled a bit.

Little taste of his own medicine!

All I’m thinking about is Rizzo channeling his inner Ron Burgundy calling Veronica pretending to be her doctor.

Rizzo was a contention point for being on the ALCS roster.

Lots of fans were furious at his addition and were content with Berti and Oswaldo alternating at first.

So far that decision has worked out great as Rizzo is roping line drive after line drive.

You could easily argue this is the best he’s swung a bat since his concussion in 2023.

There’s a real argument to move him up in the lineup to swap out a struggling Austin Wells.

There’s some length to the lineup now they’ve craved for years.

This could very well be his last year in New York, let’s go out with a bang.
