Just a couple of days go, I talked about how I wasn’t too keen on Jose Mesa being in the Tigers bullpen. Apparantly, Mesa is a really hard worker as this story indicates. Nice read and they also touch on the 1997 World Series which eventually led to Mesa’s longstanding feud with Omar Vizquel after he wrote some disparaging comments about Mesa in his book.
I’m sure Mesa is a great guy and at one time he was a very good relief pitcher. I just get the feeling he’s being crammed down our throat.
