Mr. Beisbol


Edgardo Alfonzo was one of the best all-around players to ever don the orange and blue, but a bad back and a steep decline led to his becoming persona non grata in the big leagues a couple of years ago. Since then he has repeatedly attempted to resurrect his career, spending time in the minors and Mexico, even playing in the independent leagues. Now he is going to Japan--Fonzie recently agreed to terms with the Yomiuri Giants for $380,000. A far cry from his glory days with the Mets … but just a smidge more than I will make this year from watching baseball on TV.
