[Guest Edgy DC]

Pretty interesting that, after all this time, the top ten is a three-man club.

Heck, the top 14.

[Guest Benjamin Grimm]

And Matlack is the only southpaw to get more than 200 in a season. In their best strikeout years, Koosman, Leiter, and Fernandez each got exactly 200.

[Guest Benjamin Grimm]

Piazza gets his 1,000th Mets hit with style. A three-run tie-breaking homer against the Braves at Shea.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Sweet.

[Guest Frayed Knot]

Funny how neither of the radio guys mentioned that it was hit #1,000.
Not that I expected it immediately since the result of the smack was a bigger story than the fact that it was a goofy round number, but that's the sort of thing Howie in particular usually eats up with a spoon. And even if he missed it I'm surpised that Jay Horowitz didn't come running in to their booth with road flares to inform them.

Maybe it'll get mentioned during the post-game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Piazza's likely done climbing the Mets career ladder in homers, but the overall ladder goes on.

Active players below are in red. (I''m not projecting all the active players now, but I should at some point.) Did you that Lee Mazzilli is currently managing two of the top ten homerun hitters in major league history?

How about we also get Carlos Beltran out of Daryle Ward's neighborhood. My goodness.

[Guest Elster88]

Ichiro and Crawford are also down there? Lo Duca below Piazza?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Piazza's next chase is Joe Carter. Four hundred is still a reach of sorts.

[Guest Elster88]

Junior Griffey should be in brick color too, no? I'm guessing that's not Senior?

[Guest Edgy DC]

OK, back to an ol' favorite. Jose Reyes's 2005 is already the second tripliest of all Met time. His pace has seemingly fallen off to put him out of contention for catching Lance Johnson, but these things come in bunches.

He has now sole posession of the 17th tripliest career in Mets history, and is still a decent bet to become the youngest Met to triple his age, garnering 22 career triples as a 22-year-old.

Jose has missed one game so far this year. I predicted he would play in 120 games this year in our predictions thread in the old CPF. This isn't a category that gets cracked often, only three new entries to the top 20 since 1991.

Jose's all alone in second place now. It's a long chase after Lance.

Interesting, albeit relatively worthless, info from today's Mets Press Pass notes:

All-Time Games Caught
23. Ernie Lombardi 1544
24. Steve O'Neill 1528
=red]T25. Mike Piazza 1506
T25. Darrell Porter 1506

[Guest Elster88]

Where does one who isn't a member of the press get Press Pass notes? Or is that not possible?

[Guest seawolf17]

They have them on mlb.com... go to News, then Press Pass. You have to create an account, then they'll e-mail you every day when they're ready. I usually check them, just for kicks; if I think of it, I try to print them out before I go to a game (because I'm a nerd). They're an invaluable KTE resource.

A good couple of weeks and Jose is projecting to break the top 3.

Reyes has missed one game this year. Wright has missed two.

I'm guessing that the the 1999 stats, including Olerud's 162, are out of 163 games. Talk about stats that need an asterisk.

I really like the Interactive Statistics in the UMDB.

Reyes looking to break 700. He's looking to pass Kaz's mark from last year. I think he might just.

I seem to remember a time when the single-season record for at bats in a season was 699. (Manny Trillo, perhaps?) I'm pretty sure it's since been broken, and that there have been a few 700 seasons. Though not, of course, for the Mets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Willie Wilson had the first 700-at-bat season, I'm pretty sure.

[Guest Frayed Knot]

700 AB seasons:

Willie Wilson - 705, 1980
Ichiro Suzuki - 704, 2004
Juan Samuel - 701, 1984

Dave Cash (699 - 1975) was the pre-Reagan era leader
