>Activate Paulie O on Sunday!

>Here's an idea for Sunday night's meaningless Yankees-Orioles game:

Start Paul O'Neill in right field.

That's right. Right fielder #21.

The fans would go bananas. It would be a nice farewell to the Jeter teams before the big move to the House That A-Rod Brought Losing Baseball To.

Or should that be the house to which a-rod brought losing baseball – but I digress.

Anyway let him play RF in the top of the first. Wait until one out and then take him out. What's the worst that happens – he let's a ball get past him for a double? Who cares!

Think of how awesome Suzyn Waldman's on-air orgasm would be. Then announce #21 will be retired and not given to LaTroy Hawkins at a ceremony next year.

>Is Gary Carter Even Welcome At Shea Goodbye?

>I was thinking about how the Mets will welcome back their great players like The Former Franchise and The Guy From The Dodgers and The Guy Whose Number They Give Out To Every Tom, Dick and Fernando….

..and then I thought about former co-captain Gary Carter. The guy who calls Freddie Brooklyn to let him know he's available to manage, you know, if you were to fire the manager or sumthin'

Is he even welcome? Is he persona non-grata?

I say this is a celebration. Welcome everyone back. Dr. Koke, Doug Sisk, Bobby Bonilla, Juan Samuel….invite 'em all!

>Some Hints About The Final Games At The Stadiums

SPORTS BUSINESS

The Yankees and the Mets have said little, if anything, about their plans to say farewell to their old stadiums.

One part of Sunday’s pregame ceremony will be the introduction of Yankees greats who will go to their former positions; those who have died will be represented by family members. One of Mickey Mantle’s sons, Danny or David, could be in center field, and one of Roger Maris’s sons could be in right.


After the Florida-Mets afternoon game on Sept. 28, the Mets plan to bring back 45 former players, including Tom Seaver and Mike Piazza, for a celebration called Shea Goodbye.
