Former Michigan outfielder Patrick Biondi is off to a good start with Low-A Savannah in the Met system. Biondi, who was drafted in the 9th round, is hitting  .304 with 24 stolen bases (but eight caught stealing) in 76 games. Over his last 10 games, he's really heated up, batting.421 with 2 homers, 9 rbis, and 5 sbs. Last night was his best yet: 5 for 7 with a homer.

To think that kid was 5 years old shooting FT in my driveway when I was in high school and now he is getting a shot in the minors. It's too bad he went to DC!

I was going to ask how he's played 76 games already, since that's unreal for a player that just started a couple months ago, but then I realized he his senior year was 2013, not 2015...

Biondi started out with the Brooklyn Cyclones (Mets) the same year Michael O'Neill started with the Staten Island Yankees.  A friend's a season ticket-holder with the Baby Bombers (gave up on the overpriced Bronx Boys) and invited me to the game between our two alumni.  O'Neill's now in the Yankee's High A team in Tampa.
