Blessed With Versatility

[G-Fafif]

Now that I have reached Jesse Orosco status, I am utterly, utterly charmed that he is listed as a starting pitcher, relief pitcher and right fielder.

We're nothing around here if not completionists.

Fielded 1.000 in '86.....B-R has him as RF & OF....did he play left too?

or is that the same position?

[Willets Point]

I missed that game the first time around. I'd love to watch it end to end.

Seconded. Come on SNY, there's only so many times I can watch a Damian Easley home run to win an April game against the Rockies as a "Mets Classic".

I wonder who holds the rights for those game shown on SportsChannel and WOR.

Pretty sure Fran Healy has them locked in his basement with the remains of Steve Zabriskie.

One of my all-time favorite Met games.

I agree, it's one of those that I would most like them to replay, along with the July 4th game in Atlanta in '85.

SNY does a pretty poor job with the Mets Classics (as G-Fafif has done an excellent job documenting).

Generally, I'm no bloodthirsty fightmonger. (If you're looking for that, you want my cousin, LeiterWagnerFighterMonger. He's in Apartment 2B-- you'll want to stand back from the door after ringing the bell.)

That said, I remember thinking that was PRETTY cool when Ray Knight wanna be startin' something. (And I kinda liked Eric Davis.)
