Strawberry is the next guy to bash players in a book
Just when you thought the books of bashing players was going to stop. It’s not…. Darryl Strawberry is going to be releasing a book in April. “Straw: Finding My Way” will detail the boozing, skirt-chasing New York Mets of the
mid-1980’s.
mid-1980’s.
“We were the boys of summer. The drunk, speed-freak, sneaking a smoke boys of summer,” Strawberry writes.” I have read that Strawberry will not be saying names of players but will tell it how it was during that time from his point of view.
I know I can’t wait to read this one. I have a few books that I want to read. This is another to add to my to do list. I always liked Strawberry. He just never was able to keep his nose clean. I remember when the Giants had him (1994). There was a sign behind him at the stadium saying “Strawberry Patch”. Awww the memories. =) Click here to read about the Strawberry book.

King – have you read “The Bad Guys Won”? It is about the “86 Mets. (Yes – the team that beat the Red Sox!) Boy – the things that went on with the Mets then. Wow! I highly recommend it!

Another book about drugs… will anything else shocking be revealed? I don’t know how much more I can take. Not that I was alive during the 80’s or anything, but I do know my history. Strawberry had such a cool name.

This sounds like a very “colorful” book. Should be a fun read.
