Fangraphs - OF - Vincente Lupo



Vicente Lupo, the Mets prospect pictured in the right part of this picture, is exhibiting considerable emotion. Is it because:
  1. He realized only after waiting in line at the DMV that he’d neglected to bring either his checkbook or the requisite amount of cash to renew his license; or
  2. His parents just related, in unnecessarily graphic detail, the circumstances leading to his conception; or
  3. He accidentally read a James Joyce novel; or
  4. His hands, which are transplants from a deceased murderer, are attempting to strangle him; or
  5. His hands, which are transplants from a deceased murderer, smell terrible?

Funny. I wonder if that was a shot of when he stole home the other day. Any NY Mets steal home, and they can use the Vicente 2 hand salute like he did there.

When the heck did a Met last steal home? Was it Jackie Robinson? Let me ask the Wilpons.
