I just saw the most unusual press conference. Instead of announcing a trade or free-agent signing, a Mets official was ____________.
Oh, sorry, GENE Rayburn passed away a long time ago, and the Match Game hasn’t been on TV — not even reruns — in quite a while.
I wonder what Charles Nelson Reilly or Brett Somers might have written on their card to fill in the above blank?
In any case, outfielder / utility man Ryan Raburn has reportedly agreed to sign a minor-league deal with the Indians.
That said, another potential position player for the Mets is off the board. We last discussed Rayburn at the beginning of the month, in a scrap heap story.
