stevejrogers Old-Timey Member Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 Mets need go 16�5 the rest of the way to get Terry Collins to 400 wins as a skipper on the high Met seas. He is also on the verge of passing Joe Frazier in the win percentage column. And maybe his antecedent Jerry Manuel too if he hits that 400 mark.Wins by a Mets ManagerDavey Johnson: 595Bobby Valentine: 536Terry Collins Projected to End of Season: 395.91Terry Collins: 384Gil Hodges: 339=#FF8000]Terry Collins at Start of Season: 304Willie Randolph: 302Yogi Berra: 292Joe Torre: 286Dallas Green: 229Jerry Manuel: 204Casey Stengel: 175Wining Percentage by a Mets ManagerDavey Johnson: .588Willie Randolph: .544Bobby Valentine: .534Bud Harrelson: .529Gil Hodges: .523Yogi Berra: .497Jerry Manuel: .489Terry Collins Projected to End of Season: .488784Joe Frazier: .488Terry Collins: .486689=#FF8000]Terry Collins at Start of Season: .469136Dallas Green: .447What I take away from this is, its probably time to discuss Bobby V for enshrinement in the Mets HOF.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 I agree. Bobby Valentine should be in the Mets Hall of Fame.This year, Terry has also reached third place in the number of games managed.[list:3stuxcyl]Davey Johnson 1012Bobby Valentine 1003Terry Collins 789Joe Torre 709Gil Hodges 649Yogi Berra 588Casey Stengel 582Willie Randolph 555Dallas Green 512Jerry Manuel 417Wes Westrum 380Art Howe 323Bud Harrelson 274George Bamberger 208Joe Frazier 207Jeff Torborg 200Frank Howard 116Roy McMillan 53Salty Parker 11Mike Cubbage 7[/list:u:3stuxcyl]
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted September 12, 2015 Author Posted September 12, 2015 Cubbage still has a chance to get out of that cellar.When I get grant to do baseball research, I'm going to study how the crediting of managerial wins and losses would be affected if you gave the occasional W's and L's to the guy who takes over when the manager has been ejected, or is absent due to illness or family or somesuch.Don Zimmer went 21�15 while managing the Yankees during Joe Torre's recuperation from cancer. This would put him over 900 wins for his managerial career, but these games are all instead marked on Joe Torre's record.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Bartolo Colon led the National League this year in hits allowed by a pitcher, with 217. He's only the second Met to lead in this category. (The other was Frank Viola, with 259, in 1991.)
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 5, 2015 Author Posted October 5, 2015 Had he got one more out, Colon would have had the second stingiest year with regard to walks of any Mets starter ever. The stingiest seems out of reach.Walks/9 by Mets' Starters1) Bret Saberhagen, 1994: 0.6602) Bret Saberhagen, 1993: 1.0983) Bartolo Colon, 2015: 1.1104) Rick Reed, 2001: 1.1365) Rick Reed, 1998: 1.2296) Ed Lynch, 1985: 1.2727) Bartolo Colon, 2014: 1.3348) Rick Reed, 1997: 1.3399) Eric Hillman, 1993: 1.49010) Tom Seaver, 1968: 1.554And he led the league hands-down.

Except for Colon and Haren, those are all power pitchers. But walks per 9 is a traditionally a finesse pitcher category. This year in the NL, five of the top ten in walks per 9 were also in the top 10 in K's per 9. Ten years ago, there was only one pitcher on both lists (Pedro!). That used to be typical. Something's happened to the way this game is played.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 I can't believe that we missed this, but on September 29, in Philadelphia, Lucas Duda became the 12th Mets player to reach 100 home runs. He's poised to move up another five notches next year, which will put him on the cusp of being in some pretty elite territory.[list:l04dn2nu]1. Darryl Strawberry 2522. David Wright 2353.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Wow. I was too busy counting Murphy's doubles.Periods of Mets success are so much fun for everybody, except Ed Kranepool, sadly.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 The team's 51 stolen bases ranks but 46th of the 54 Mets teams in history. All the teams below them are from the pre-Torre era, with the exception of the 1994 Mets who were the least-stealingest Mets in history, with 25.The Mets 2015 stolen base leader is Curtis Granderson, with 11. The 1994 leader was John Cangelosi, with five. Roger Cende�o once stole four in a game for the Mets.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Terry moves ahead of Casey Stengel, Wes Westrum, Salty Parker, Roy McMillan, Joe Frazier, Joe Torre, George Bamburger, Frank Howard, Bud Harrelson, Mike Cubbage, Jeff Torborg, Dallas Green, Art Howe, and Jerry Manuel in post-season games won as a NYM manager.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Hopefully he'll remain tied with them for losses.
