Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 A speculative (and hugely premature) look at the race for some all-time NYM hitting records if the two long-term players continue at their current paces.For each stat the current record & holder are shown, where Reyes & Wright are and how far along to the overall team record, plus the projected season when one or the other will reach it assuming things continue at more or less current rates.

Elster88 Old-Timey Member Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 I don't imagine that the doubles and triples records will hold up very long.
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 Beltran belongs in there also maybe.

Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted October 3, 2007 Author Posted October 3, 2007 Didn't think of including Beltran mainly because I was looking at this as if Wright & Reyes become NYM lifers, or at least something close to it.Beltran got his Met start later than either of the others, is already 3/7 of the way through his deal, plus is older and probably won't last as long in a Met uniform.So, except maybe for HRs, most of the records are out of his reach unless a contract extension follows this current one.
