HERE IS WHAT OTHER METS FANS HAVE TO SAY:

While successful rebuilding the farm system in the early 80's, the Mets went thru a number of draft duds that finally caught up to them in the 90's and Donnels was the best player they developed in that time, scary.

I think the Mets draft in the first round as well as the NY Giants, terribly. Chris was a long line of 1st round losers. The only reason he made the club at all was because he was a first rounder. At least he worked out better than Ryan Jaroncyck who retired at the age of 20. I did feel bad for him one time though when he made a costly error and John Franco turned around and yelled at the poor guy. I love Franco but that was not called for.

When I first saw Donnels on TV, I remarked to my friend Jimmy Wells, "He looks like Ike from The Waltons." Jim and I laughed uproariously.

For those who don't remember, Ike was the general store owner on The Waltons. He probably could hit a little better than what Donnels did in his brief tenure with the Amazin's.

I remember going to a game at Shea and seeing Donnels make a great bare handed play at third base and nail the runner at first. After that play the whole stadium strted chearing "Donnels, Donnels" and I heard Bob Murphy remark "I dont know if theyre cheering 'Darryl Sarryl' or 'Donnels Donnels'"

I saw him poke one out against the Yankees the other day as a member of the D-backs. I was surprised to see him still playing ball since I hadn't heard his name in years. Unfortunately the home run didn't help as the D-backs lost.
