Last Monday, David Groveman wrote about some early-season surprises in the Mets minor league system, and one of the most-prominent names mentioned was Eli Serrano III, a lefty-hitting outfielder starting the season with the Brooklyn Cyclones.
Can you elaborate on why you believe Serrano will end up in a corner? I guess that's always the most likely result for any outfielder - just curious what it is that you think pushes him away from CF.
Also, for what little it's worth, with the hiring of a new men's basketball coach, the school made it known that it prefers not to be called North Carolina State. So, if you announce any more of Serrano's at-bats, you should use N.C. State.
Enjoy the article. Laughed because all I could think about reading Serrano’s name was Cerrano from Major League. I guess the school is embarrassed that they’re in North Carolina and they’re trying to hide the fact.
Sorry Brian. As a graduate of a state school in NY, I was only trying to poke fun at states that have similar named schools (ie University of Michigan and Michigan State) where the rest of the country tries to figure out which is the better school and which one is known for their sports teams. UNC at Chapel Hill gets the sports nod but both NC schools are rated very highly with the latter being a major research college. I’ll be better in the future 🤷♂️
Thanks for this update!

Was this supposed to be funny? Because it it was, it missed the mark by 100 miles. Do better.
