Charlie Puleo



 

No, I haven't started collecting sports cards, and if I were to, I wouldn't buy one in such lousy condition.  I was out riding my bicycle today, and there it was, lying on the street, and clearly the worse for wear.  Anyway, I have an appreciation for players like Charlie Puleo.  He played in parts of nine seasons, had 387 strikeouts, which isn't all that bad.  Also, a so-so 4.25 career ERA, and a 29-39 record.  He played for the Mets, Reds, and Braves.  He was born in 1955, he is still alive, and while he never became a star, he has nothing to regret, either.  Let's hear it for the journeymen.
