RA DICKEY RUMORS & GOSSIP
R.A. Dickey to Have 3 Knuckle Ball Speeds?
Metsblog posted today portions of fan Q&A with R.A. Dickey.
At one point, Dickey was asked if he was going to still throw two speeds of Knuckleballs, to which he responded “3″.

Mets Card of the Week: 2012 R.A. Dickey
2012 TOPPS R.A. DICKEY
Who needs Punxsatawney Phil?

Dickey Is The Best Choice For Mets Ace If Johan Isn’t Ready
With the uncertainty of Johan Santana being ready for Opening Day, the idea of R.A. Dickey being the Mets opening day starter are starting to take shape around Metsland. Dickey was at the Munson Dinner last night where he addressed that possibility with reporters.
I certainly hope that’s not the case. My first reaction would obviously be that I would be honored to do it, but...

Dickey Is A Good Pitcher On A Bad Team
Fake Teams takes a look at some good starting pitchers who are toiling for bad teams and lists our own R.A. Dickey among his five picks.
Yes, he is 37-years old. But, in knuckleball years, he is really like 27. Now that he has returned from climbing Mt. Kilmanjaro, with all his fingers and toes, Dickey should continue his surprising success against National League hitters. Over the...

R.A. Dickey starts climbing anyway
Robert Allen Dickey certainly isn’t a normal baseball player. First off, he’s a knuckleballer so that automatically makes him weird. Second, he loves Star Wars. Like, he really likes Star Wars.
