…i was able to speak with keith for the first time yesterday, for an interview that i will post to MetsBlog next week…i have to admit, i was quite nervous and i hope it didn’t show

i hope it was an interesting discussion, as i talked with him mostly about his experience going through what appear to be the three phases of a major-league career, i.e., adjusting from college to the minors to the majors, adjusting to fame and maintaining your performance, and, lastly, recognizing diminishing skills and adjusting accordingly…
