Williams



One more batch today. Continuing the common-surname theme, can you name the five Mets with the surname "Williams"?



1. Charlie Williams, 1971

2. Mason Williams, 2021

3. Trevor Williams, 2021-2022

4. Dave Williams, 2006-2007

5. Gerald Williams, 2004-2005

Tennessee and Alex are incorrect, though I understand the confusion on both. Mason was a top prospect once who never really got a fair shake from anyone. When he played he was decent (.286 avg. from 2015-2019), but big league teams barely used him.

Gerald it is! Chris is currently in the Mets system, but has yet to play for them.



Moving down the list...



If it's Brown, we're Flushing it down



(the Brown--Flushing wordplay was as lot harder to come up with than I thought it would be)



Brown is the fourth-most common surname in the USA, but only four Browns have ever played for the Mets. Can you name them?



1. Emil Brown, 2009.

2. Kevin Brown, 1990.

3. Andrew Brown, 2013-2014.

4. Leon Brown, 1976.

Quick work of the Brown squad.



My main Gerald Williams memories are him getting called up the day after the Cameron/Beltran collision, and him folding up and quitting on a catch before hitting the wall when Pedro Martinez had a no-hitter going.

I had remembered Kevin Brown (the Mets pitcher) mostly for him not being the Kevin Brown (the Yankees/Rangers/Padres pitcher who won 200+ games and also imploded against Boston in the playoffs as a MFY) and for being the more 'brown' of the Kevin Browns.



Andrew Brown? I got nothing

Emil, Leon, Kevin and Andrew are all correct!



Emil was one of those random names thrown out there during that injury-ravaged 2009. I remember Andrew was clumped in with Mike Baxter a lot.



That was quick! So quick we'll do one more, even though I was going to limit them to one per day.



Mr. Jones and Me



Can you name the eight "Jones" in Mets history?



1. Chris Jones, 1995-1996

2. Cleon Jones, 1963 & 1965-1975

3. Randy Jones, 1981-1982

4. Sherman Jones, 1962

5. Bobby J. Jones, 1993-2000

6. Bobby M. Jones, 2000 & 2002

7. Ross Jones, 1984

8. Barry Jones, 1992
