I spoke to Santana at Mets Fantasy Camp in February: He’s the White Sox’ director of scouting for the Dominican Republic, I believe. Nice dude.

Ray Knight is an on-air guy for MASN, as you may recall from his on-air awkwardness with the excruciating Rob Dibble.

The Wikipedia says Danny Heep has been the head baseball coach for the University of the Incarnate Word in Texas since 1998, in which time he has led the team to two conference championships. Rick Aguilera coaches at Santa Fe Christian High School in Rancho Santa Fe, California.

As for the rest of them? Well, SNY’s Mets on-air team is attempting to get every member of the 1986 club in the booth or on the phone at some point this season. Not sure how they’re going to pull that off with Lenny Dykstra, but I suppose he’s entitled to one phone call…

(That joke completely stolen from SNY.tv video producer Jeff.)

I haven’t. But I suppose this is as good a time as any to announce my intention to review every sandwich in Citi Field.

This is obviously a pretty big challenge, so I can’t commit to doing it all this season. If you add ’em all up, there are a ton of sandwiches available at the park and there’s only so many I’m willing to eat in one trip (specifically: one). Plus there are times I’m at the park when I’m working and too busy to stop at the concessions, and times when I’m just not that hungry. Also, I don’t really care for fish, so I might have to find someone (most likely my wife, if I can talk her into it) to fill me in on some of the options from Catch Of The Day.

Thus far I’ve only done the pulled pork and fried chicken sandwiches from Blue Smoke. I ate a Mama’s Special last week, so that’ll be reviewed sometime soon. Eventually I’d like to rank them all.

Of course, I normally like to actually do things instead of just saying I’m going to do things, and I haven’t really come with the Citi sandwiches yet. But I figure maybe announcing this goal will keep me working toward it.

So I’ll have the Keith burger eventually, is what I’m saying.

I mean obviously it depends on the sandwich. There are plenty of sandwiches that practically have to be hot: Burgers, hot dogs, chicken and veal parmigiana, cheesesteaks, most chicken-cutlet combinations.

But if you’re talking about a traditional deli sandwich, like, I don’t know, turkey with bacon, cheddar and mayo on a hero, I’ll take that cold actually. Because of the way some cheeses melt, hot versions of those sandwiches get pretty greasy and leave me feeling a little sick. I always objected to Quizno’s big ad campaign about how grilled sandwiches are necessarily better than ungrilled ones because it’s really a case-by-case thing.

One note: American cheese doesn’t get greasy when it melts because of an emulsifying salt invented by Joseph Kraft. That’s why you can make such a good grilled cheese so easily with American cheese. Judge me all you want: American cheese is rarely my go-to cheese choice, but I still think it’s delicious.
