My daughter called and said Demetri was drafted into the Mets! He’s nine! Can you imagine that third grade baseball has a draft?! The coach told her that they looked through the records for the years the kids had played ball and got so many batters, so many fielders, so many pitchers, etc. Yesterday Danielle said she didn’t want us to go to his first practice and it hurt my feelings a tad. We don’t get involved with the game; we’re just watchers. But she was just married in May and wanted her husband to take him. I understand (grudgingly.)
