Ed Hearn Trivia

[Gwreck]

=‘seawolf17']Gary caught every inning of every game, and they couldn't even find Ed a single spot? Oof. I don't know how I never realized that.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Kevin Plawecki

[Gwreck]

Correct. Never played in either ‘15 or ‘16.

Didn't the Mets have someone on the roster who would have made his MLB debut in the 2015 World Series, but didn't get into a game? I remember the Royals had someone who did -- Mondesi -- but I thought the Mets had someone who potentially could have -- an infielder?



Was it Matt Reynolds?

[HahnSolo]

Not his MLB debut, but the guy you're looking for is Matt Reynolds.

[Gwreck]

Elster didn't get any hits in ‘86, but he did play (and also in ‘88).



Reynolds was added to the NLCS roster after the illegal slide, vicious assault, and profoundly erroneous officiating debacle in the division series in which Ruben Tejada's leg was broken. He didn't play but it would have been his ML debut if he had. He was removed from the roster in favor of Juan Uribe for the World Series.

[Edgy MD]

Matz.

[Gwreck]

Steven was the starting pitcher for 3 games in ‘15.

[HahnSolo]

Probably some bullpen guy from the '16 team...Eric Goeddel?

[stevejrogers]

Anderson Hernandez

[Gwreck]

Goeddel was not on the wild card game roster in ‘16, but he did pitch in the division series in ‘15.



Anderson Hernandez made it into a couple of LCS games in 2006; he ran for LoDuca as the winning run in the bottom of the ninth of Game 7.



There are 5 players left on the board from the 2016 Wild Card game roster...but another 2 players left from elsewhere.

[G-Fafif]

Fernando Salas.

[stevejrogers]

=Gwreck post_id=20248 time=1567086555 user_id=56]
Steven was the starting pitcher for 3 games in ‘15.

[Gwreck]

Yes to Salas.



Neither Matz nor DeGrom was on the roster for the Wild card game in ‘16. But keep in mind the quiz is only looking for players who never made it into a postseason game. DeGrom started 4 games in the ‘15 postseason.
