Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 We've had similar threads in previous seasons as we watch the current Mets climb various all-time lists.So here we go with the 2007 round. I'll start it off with this:José Reyes, with his 3 triples so far this year, now has 43. He's in third place on the all-time Mets list, just two behind Bud Harrelson.Mookie Wilson is in first place with 62. Unless José picks up on his 17-per-year pace, he'll have to wait until 2008 to become the Mets leading tripler.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2007 Author Posted April 13, 2007 And then there's wins. Tom Glavine won't ever pass Tom Seaver, but Bob Ojeda, Craig Swan, and Rick Reed have reason to worry this year:1.Tom Seaver1982.Dwight Gooden1573.Jerry Koosman1404.Ron Darling995.Sid Fernandez986.Al Leiter957.Jon Matlack828.David Cone819.Bobby Jones7410.Steve Trachsel6611.Rick Reed5912.Craig Swan5913.Bob Ojeda5114.Tom Glavine50

Guest iramets Guests Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Are you claiming to know, Yancy, that Glavine isnt in the Mets' plans for 2036?
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2007 Author Posted April 13, 2007 I'm hoping he's in their plans for 2032. It would be nice for him to come back for the 25th anniversary celebration of the 2007 World Championship.

Guest iramets Guests Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 That's "Consecutive Games Hitting," of course.Frank J. Thomas (J.? As opposed to Frank "TBH" Thomas) is the sleeper there--amazin' that his streak held up as long as it did. I think that's a Mets' trivia question I never heard before: Which Met held the record for consecutive games hitting through May of 1970? I would have guessed Hunt, Kranepool, Cleon, almost anyone before I guessed our man Frank.Also interesting is the spate of 1970s hitting streak. For eight seasons, they can't get past 18 and then in one year, three guys do it? Amazin'. There was no hupla attached to it that I can remember either. Look how dramatic this was: in May, Agee breaks Thomas's record that had stood for eight seasons, then in mid-summer breaks his own record, and finally in September Cleon breaks Agee's record. We're going on thirty seven year old memoiries here, but I don't remember hearing any of this natural drama at the time. I'm not sure if Murph and Ralph and Lindsay even knew whose record Agee broke.

A Boy Named Seo Old-Timey Member Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Is there any reason to dispute this streak because it's occurring over the course of two seasons? The Nats announcers last night said that peeps are talking about David Wright's hitting streak, but it's not legit. I think Jimmy Rollins' streak last year was under the same circumstances. Pretty sure that Cal Ripken game streak didn't reset on Opening Days.
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 A hitting streak is a novelty. I see no reason to dismiss it based on the novelty of it being over two seasons.Nats announcers are trying to give their season the illusion of elevation by bringing down other teams and their good news.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted April 25, 2007 Author Posted April 25, 2007 I think I read that Smith recently broke an ancient Mets record for most scoreless innings at the start of a career, formerly held by Dennis Musgraves.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2007 Author Posted May 1, 2007 Jose Reyes stole 17 bases in the month of April this year.

Willets Point Old-Timey Member Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 How many stolen bases would Reyes have for the season at the current pace?
Willets Point Old-Timey Member Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 That's what I got too, but I don't trust my math. That would certainly crush the Mets single season record.
