The trade needed to be made for the bullpen’s sake, but it’s sad to see the back of Endy Chavez as he leaves town. We’re not used to this view of the little left fielder who could and did. We’re used to something more like this.
 
Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans. Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here. Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here. Got something to say?

Gentlemen, I say ye Endy Chavez.
My heart is broken in ten million cruel shards. Omar, it's soooooo over between us.
Au contraire. My most recent lasting memory of Endy is a very similar view.
(By the way, didn't I take this picture?)
Or did someone else take it and you sent it to me? I just know I've looked at this picture a thousand times. And not for the obvious reasons… hahaha
