    Thing is, Jeff Francoeur is probably the single nicest baseball player I have ever got to see play. The only player I know of to have his own fan section in opposing stadiums and he would buy all of them t-shirts, food, and autograph baseballs. A true class act.

      Am I missing something? Every player on the team presented Reyes as deaf when he joined the team. They all stayed with the joke through games and team events. I’m not sure why he’s an idiot for being tricked. Why would anyone suspect that this situation isn’t what it seems. Especially since he just joined the team. And he has a good sense of humor.

    I give it a 9. They should have ended it by having Jorge fall down during practice when Jeff was not looking and making believe Jorge was hit by a batted ball. The trainer and all the players would run over to him and after a few minutes Jorge would yell out "I can hear !! It's a miracle" That would have made it a 10. Make it an 11 if it was on video.

    It was a pretty elaborate prank and that’s why I wouldn’t say frenchy is an idiot. He’s new to the team and everybody tells him Reyes is deaf. The joke is maintained on the field, waitresses are bribed and even reyes’ wife is in on it. Even if Reyes gave him clues, why would he not believe this. I don’t come away convinced he’s an idiot, even if he is. But he does come off as a good sport. My question is why Frenchy. If this is just what they do to everybody, great.
