R.A. Dickey on “The Dickster”

Newsday’s David Lennon snapped a photo of R.A. Dickey’s lunch earlier this week and Tweeted it. It looks like this:

So what’s on “The Dickster”? I asked everyone’s favorite eloquent knuckleballer today.

It’s a wrap (as you can see), with turkey, bacon, Havarti cheese, lettuce and mayonnaise. Not a bad combination, if you ask me. Obviously a distinguishing fellow like Dickey knows well enough to choose a fine sandwich cheese like Havarti, and, unlike at least one of his teammates, Dickey fears not the bacon.

The Dickster is prepared by the Mets’ kitchen staff. Dickey enjoys one every road trip.
