HERE IS WHAT OTHER METS FANS HAVE TO SAY:

One of the funniest things I can remember about Al, was the time a bunch of us went to a Mexican Restaurant for his birthday when he was playing for the Tides. I have a picture of Angel Salazar sitting next to Al who was wearing a HUGE sombrero while the waiters and waitresses sang happy birthday to him. He was upset that he didn't get to keep the sombrero!

Now the Diamondbacks manager. A buddy of mine dubbed him "Awesome Al." I seem to recall McCarver making one of his silly jokes about Al's last name rhyming with Fred Manrique.

Another member of the "Can you remember when I was a Met" club. He was a marginal prospect who was with the Mets for a couple of weeks and was then traded for the then useless Bill Almon.

He was a 1988 Topps All-Star Rookie, with a little trophy. Ironically, the photo on the card was taken at Shea once he was already on the Pirates.

I met Al in 1985 when he was playing for the Tides in Norfolk, VA and I was an usherette at the ball park. He has to be one of the all time nicest guys in baseball. I was with the group mentioned previously by Nancy at the Mexican restaurant that night when we celebrated his birthday. I'm glad to hear that Al has had a successful career as a minor league manager and major league coach. I wish him all the best.

I knew Al in Jackson in '81-'83. He is one of the nicest people I ever met. My family had him over to dinner several times as I was friends with his girlfriend at the time. You'll never find a better guy.

Alfredo is a true baseball ambassador. His love for the game and the players he teaches is unmatched. I met him in Detroit during his time with the Tigers in 1989. Now 34 years later he remains a dear friend. I consider myself honored to know him and it is always good to see him. A friend for life!!!
