Welcome to New York: Gerrit Cole Handled The Media Perfectly In His NY Paparazzi Debut And Did NOT Fight a Cameraman!

Annnnnd we're off! In my opinion that could not have gone any better, minus the dumbest questions in the world being asked. Gerrit was as nice as can be there, signing baseballs for everyone and even answering those idiotic questions after saying he was going to save those for the press conference.

Fucking New York media are a bunch of motherfuckers huh? Hounding the guy, seemingly trying to make him question coming here. Guys, RELAX for one goddamn second please. Someone asked if it was a hard decision twice in 60 seconds. Please let the man breathe for the love of god. Credit to Cole for handling that perfectly. Welcome to New York. That's my ace!!!

Looking back, the fact that Randy Johnson pushed a cameraman on day one is actually insane. I mean you cannot have a worse day one if you tried. All the guy wanted was a picture. No wonder it didn't work out.

Anyways, good job being nice Gerrit! We love you already.
