Postseason Roster Trivia

[Gwreck]

Vaguely inspired by the discussion about Ruben Tejada's last appearance in his first Mets tenure being a postseason game.



14 players have appeared for the Mets in a postseason game without having ever played in the field. Who are they? Hint: Ruben Tejada is not a correct answer.

Mike Piazza sat out two games in the '99 NLDS, so...

[Gwreck]

Todd Pratt was the starting catcher in the Todd Pratt game (Piazza was injured). He also started a game in 2000 when Piazza was the DH.

[HahnSolo]

Michael Tucker in 2006

[Edgy MD]

He also finished up the last two marathon games against the Braves, as Piazza was too hobbled to continue catching into extra innings.

I'm just pissed off that somebody beat me to Jim Beauchamp.



Let's stay with the 1973 outfield and go with ... George Theodore!

Danny Heep?
