Q&A with Chris Coste

Former Indians farmhand Chris Coste took the time to answer a number of questions for me, for my website (www.SethSpeaks.net). He has some wonderful things to say about Erik Wedge, Jim Thome and more.

Former Indians farmhand Chris Coste took the time to answer a number of questions for me, for my website (www.SethSpeaks.net).

Coste spent the 2005 season with Scranton-Wilkes Barre and was again an International League All-Star. He spent three years with Buffalo.

He has some wonderful things to say about Erik Wedge, Jim Thome and more. Although at 32 he is not a major prospect, he is not giving up his dream as long as teams continue to want him.

Check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks,

Re: Q&A with Chris Coste
I think you have written the definitive work on the career of Chris Coste!

In seriousness, it's a nice piece, and Coste certainly seems like a nice guy.  Coste's main problem is that he didn't make it into affiliated baseball (in Akron) until age 27, so he was only a prospect for about one year at most.  He does seem to have the right idea, that his chance to make the majors is when a team has a need for a backup catcher.  He is getting old, but his skills are still there, and you never know what can happen.  Hell, Sandy Martinez got a World Series ring.
