Born on the same day

[Benjamin Grimm]

Here's a list of Mets who share a birthdate with other Mets. (I know you've been dying to see such a list.)



We can play a game, trying to find some commonality between these pairs, other than their dates of birth.



For example, Addison Reed and Rick Porcello both pitched for the Red Sox.



Jacob deGrom and Devin Mesoraco both won Schaefer awards in 2018.

I googled 'Aaron Ledesma dinosaurs' but came up with nothing.



It was a long shot.

[Edgy MD]

Most likely to be fraternal twins separated at birth: Whitehurst and Saberhagen.

[G-Fafif]

The Bob Millers were each born on the same day as another Met, but not the other Bob Miller.

Not too many of those pairs (or trios) were Mets teammates. Hardly any, in fact. I thought there'd be more. deGrom and Mesoraco are the most recent Mets teammates who shared a birth date.

[A Boy Named Seo]

John Mayberry sounds like a flavor you can order at the Taylor Teagarden

[roger_that]

I just read that Greta Thunberg and Kyle Rittenhaus were born on the same day, which shows you something, I guess....

[kcmets]

Nothing Metly, and kinda unnecessarily twisted... no?

[Edgy MD]

No major leaguers born on my birthday.
