Curtis Granderson on the Mets World Series Run, deGrom's Injury-Plagued Career, and Harsh Expectations in the Bronx
Curtis Granderson has the rare experience of playing for both the Mets and Yankees, and the even rarer experience of being adored by both fan bases. Granderson set himself apart with his intellect and gracious personality and is using both traits to open access to youth baseball. He discusses why the black baseball player has started to evaporate and how he's trying to remedy that. He explains his introductory Mets press conference that was blasted by some Yankees fans, and how Jacob deGrom's peak was better than any pitcher he ever faced. He also discusses how the 2015 World Series run taught him much about Mets fans, and why Saved by the Bell prevented him from being a Cubs fan despite growing up in Chicago.
