I kind of do also, which sensibly makes that Harreslson and Boswell in the crosshairs, but I'm sticking to my guns on Kranepool vs. Shamsky, and could use some support on that one.

I don't see how Shamsky (last horizontal frame) is even an issue. That's Shamsky and I'd bet anything.




(I know you'll make me pay for this brash post if it turns out that I'm wrong and Shamsky's not Shamsky)

Which pretty much makes me wrong on every count. Every contested count, anyhow.

1962: Symbolic Mets baby (1st time).

1963: Mr. Met (1st time).

1964: Symbolic Mets Baby (2nd time), Generic National Leaguer (1st time), and Casey Stengel (1st time).

1965: Symbolic Mets Baby (3rd time).

1966: Symbolic Mets Baby (4th time).

1967: Symbolic Mets Baby (5th time) and Generic National Leaguer (2nd time).

1968: Symbolic Mets Baby (6th time) and Gil Hodges (1st time).

1969: Jerry Koosman (1st time), Jerry Grote (1st time), and Tom Seaver (1st time).

1970: Donn Clendenon (1st time), Tom Seaver (2nd time), Tommie Agee (1st time), Al Weis (1st time), Gary Gentry (1st time), Nolan Ryan (1st time), Ken Boswell (1st time), Bud Harrelson (1st time), Ron Swoboda (1st time), Tug McGraw (1st time), Gil Hodges (2nd time), Ed Kranepool (1st time), Jerre Grote (2nd time), Cleon Jones (1st time), Jerry Koosman (2nd time)

That's definitely Kranepool in the center and Shamsky by the edge.

I agree. Kranepool, Grote, Jones, Koosman, Shamsky.

Edgy DC Mar 31 2009 12:49 PM

Thanks, both. I've already yielded the point.
