Okay, trivia time...

There have been 34 Mets who debuted on or after September 1, and never again played for the Mets in any subsequent seasons.

The challenge: Name them!

The hints are below, the year and date of their debut.

(Not all of these guys are "call-ups." There are a few who were late-season acquisitions from other teams.)

1962 9/10/1962
1963 9/4/1963
1967 9/3/1967
1967 9/7/1967

1970 9/20/1970
1971 9/14/1971
1971 9/15/1971

1974 9/12/1974
1974 9/13/1974
1974 9/16/1974

I'm tolerating this hijack only because it produces the same output that I was going for.

Craig Brazell, September gurl.

Oops! Sorry! Brazell actually debuted on August 17, 2004. Fifteen days later, and he would have qualified.[/quote:3hnkwlgh]

Mike Glavine and Matt Watson, see you in September.

My Child-of-'86 sense is tingling... Stan Jefferson and trade fodder Rick Anderson are two of those, no?

(Dunno the third.)
