Mike Piazza hangs it up

Announced today, ol Mike is done. In his speech, it seemed to me he was securing a NY METS cap on his bust if/when he enters the HOF. Great ball player and a class act.

Sad. I didn't know he wasn't playing for the Mets. Oh well. Bu-bye.

Best hitting catcher ever, bar none. Called a great game also. Weak throws hurt his reputation and his usefulness behind the plate towards the end.

Been a big fan of his forever.

One of the best catchers to ever play the game. Good bat, good knowledge of the strike zone and calling pitches and just a good guy. He should make it to the Hall of Fame based upon these qualities. Will miss him!
Best,
