seawolf17 Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Inspired by the fact that Willie Harris somehow snuck into 126 games in 2011 (!), I wanted to figure out what other one-year wonders we've had. It's quiz time, friends. Bring it. Name these players who made it into 100 games in their one season as a Met.Year Games1962 1411962 1351962 1181963 1291964 1241966 1331967 1541967 1011971 1041979 1361992 1421992 1172000 1442001 1202002 1142003 1252005 1002009 1262009 1002010 1002011 126 - Willie Harris2011 1012012 1322013 1172013 1012015 1172016 1302016 100

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 That stretch between 1979 and 1992 is pretty surprising.
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Willie Small Balls, also 92 yes?
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Miguel Cairo that one year we had Miguel Cairo

Another guy, like Harris, I would have guessed only getting into 30-40 games.Brett Butler: 90 games in 1995 before being dealt to LA.WWSB: 90 games in 1992 before retirement.Rey Sanchez: 56 games in 2003.Richard Hidalgo: 86 games in 2004.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 I got three of the four misses.That doesn't bode well, but since I'm right about de Aza, I'm sticking with "Overexposed Reserve Outfielders," and going with Jeremy Reed for those 126 games in 2009.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Cuddyer never happened. He just didn't.
