I don't know
getting kidnapped would show grit.

More so if he’s the one doing the shooting.

If the mets are monitoring
Thole’s as good as kidnapped.

He'll rip a ligament when struggling with his captors
and the Mets will diagnose it as a strain

The kidnappers will ask for a one off $8m payment
and Omar will counter offer with $12m a year for three years

The Mets have received reports that Thole is enjoying his time in Caracas without any concerns about his safety, and that he hopes to stay through his scheduled departure date, Dec. 8.
He should be fine. I would believe that actual baseball players are better protected than a private citizen like Victor Zambrano’s mom. Plus, he’s in Caracas; she lives on a farm in bumblefuck, Venezuela.
