Better than Choo Choo, who in turn was a better catcher than Derrel Thomas.

Who was, in turn, a better catcher than Harry Chiti. The first player to be traded for himself as “the player to be named latter”. That’s how bad he was! The 1962 Mets sent him packing.

...I liked Hobie Landrith myself...also liked the original Mets coaches of Solly Hemus, Cookie Lavagetto, and the great Rogers Hornsby, to say nothing of good ol’ Casey Stengel...
