Movement in All Time Mets In Games Played Per Postiton

[Guest mlbaseballtalk]

Okay, this is fun

Lets start behind the plate

Catcher

For the time being we are starting from scratch with Lo Duca. Castro could get himself in the top twenty though. Mike Piazza finishes 2nd all time to Jerry Grote

First Base

Delgado is starting from scratch, but with an injury free season could vault into the top 15

Second Base

Matsui could get himself in the top 15, but this position could be a start from scratch one

Third Base

A historically Black Hole for the Mets, Wright could get himself in 6th place with a soild injury free season

Short Stop

Despite all the injuries in 2003 and being a 2bman in 2004 Reyes is now 8th All Time! Could be in the top 5 by the end of next season

Next time, OF...

I wanna see Wright and Reyes climbin those lists.

..still, we have had some 3rd basemen to be proud of.
Fonzy
Ho-Jo
Knight
Ventura
Wiggy(I liked him)
Brooks(Hubie)
Garrett (again, not a great player but i like him)
Magadan (thought he was the next Wade Boggs,lol)

Ken Boyer was my favorite player as a kid.

Since Yance has the updated OF positions we can do the OFs

LF

Untill further notice Cliff Floyd is your Left Fielder and is on the verge of replacing Bernard Gilkey for 5th place. Another healthy year could get him all alone in 4th all time.

CF

Man, last year Beltran ended up just edging out Mike Cameron for sole possesion of the 15 slot. So Cameron hits a glass celling at #16. Healthy year Beltran should rocket his way past Brian McRae for 6th all time, just behind Mookie, Agee, Maz, Dykstra and Payton

RF

Been a revolving door for some time now. The last back-to-back team leader in games played was "Mr. 5 Tools" Alex Ochoa in 96 and 97, but both years were less than 90 games played! (84 in 97 and 76 in 96)
Victor Diaz with 78 lead RFs last season, Mike Cameron (the Opening Day guy) was second with 68 (injury of course was the reason) Diaz could break the century mark next season, and could find himself cracking the top 20 next year.

And for the completists


DH

Cliff Floyd with 10 and Marlon Anderson with 2 are the only holdovers. Quite a long way for Cliff to even consider Mike Piazza's 34

Wow. That would have been a neat trivia question. No way I would have gotten that one without cheating.

And you're Alex Ochoa!
