I mentioned Zane Smith on th elast page of the thread. It was wrong.

Dick Ruthven

Oh no, Could one be John Franco?

[Guest sharpie]

Bryn Smith.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Another clue about the non-Smith guy:

If you're writing a book about the 1986 Mets, his name has to be in it.

[Benjamin Grimm]

1. Steve Carlton 36
2. Rick Reuschel 25
3. Jerry Reuss 21
4. Greg Maddux 16
4. Nelson Briles 16
6. Ferguson Jenkins 15
6. ___________ 15

We can do another one tomorrow.

Any category suggestions?

[Guest sharpie]

I'd vote no on outfield assists but otherwise whatever you want.

[MFS62]

Home runs or saves


I just remembered, I won't be able to participate in the next gut-wrnching installment.
I'll be on the road through Friday.
Have fun, kiddies.
Play nice, and remember to share.

It's hard to find other categories. I would say saves or batting average, though for batting average you'd probably need to give a ton of clues.

Games by position.

[Benjamin Grimm]

This thread started with homers.

I can easily do all of Edgy's suggestions except games by position. That one does sound interesting, so maybe I'll take a look at that and see if it's feasible.

[Elster88]

Maybe you already have this Yancy, but is there a way to search on MLB awards? Like Cy Young Award, Silver Slugger, etc?

[Benjamin Grimm]

This page is probably the nearest thing to what you're asking for.

[Elster88]

Do you still have a display of most popular over the last three weeks or whatever it was? And least popular?

[Benjamin Grimm]

I had to disable that a month or so ago. The process that was building that information stopped working because of a server "upgrade." I put in another way to build the info, but it crashed the database.

The reason it crashed the database has supposedly been fixed, so I plan to restore that feature. However, I don't want to do it until after my upcoming vacation, in case something else goes wrong. I don't want the database to be down for a week or more while I'm getting chased by bears in Alaska.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Wow, I just reread this thread. I had promised another fun game the following day, but never followed through.

It's back.

I found a picture for one of the Faceless Bottom 20, Tito Navarro

Thank you!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Some more scavenger hunting for photoless Mets.

The best Marrero I can find:


DiFelice. I don't know your policy on backwards caps, but if you ask me it adds a nice backstop flavor.


The begoggled Juan Padilla


Jose Parra


Jorge Velandia


Kane Davis, blue cap special.


Eric Cammack, rockin' the blue cap.


Dan Murray


Jim Tatum


Rick Wilkins, with DiFelice syndrome


Tony Phillips


Tim Spehr


Todd Haney, feeling blue


Ok, I'm stopping at 1998 because my eyes are starting to bleed.

="OlerudOwned"]Eric Cammack, rockin' the blue cap.

Thaaaaat's Steve Trachsel. You can tell by how long it took him to throw this pitch.

I thought it looked like Trachsel, but the caption and beard threw me off.

Eric Cammack

Billy Wynne is an unusually unpopular Met.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Francisco may have only gotten two big-league at-bats, but he went on to manage the Mexican national team, as well as the Leon B's:

[Benjamin Grimm]

Wow, thanks for all of the images, people. I'll have to grab a few of those.

Meanwhile, in hit popularity news, this guy seems to be generating a lot of UMDB hits for a rather unpopular former Mets relief pitcher.

Beating the rap pays off, as Jeff Reardon yesterday once again became the UMDB's top lookup.
