Mets as superheroes

[Vic Sage]

Since we seem to have given up on the Superhero contest of champions, here's something:

http://www.amazinavenue.com/2015/4/22/8475789/proposed-superhero-alter-egos-for-the-2015-mets

This writer proposes the following superhero alter-egos:

Matt Harvey = Batman
David Wright = Captain America
Juan Lagares = Spider-man
Syndegaard = Thor
Kirk Nieuwenhuis = Wolverine
Duda = Hulk
Flores = Green Lantern

Others?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Terry Collins = Willie Lumpkin?

[Ceetar]

Colon: The Thing

[Edgy MD]

Colon is Woozy Winks, I thinks.

[Vic Sage]

YES TO:
Harvey = Batman
Wright = Captain America

BUT:
Flores = Cyborg (a teen titan that moves mechanically)
Duda = Concrete (genial, slow-moving giant)
Legares = Nova (he covers more ground than Spidey)

AND:
Recker = The Tick (huge chin)
D'Arnaud = Gambit (French names)
Colon = Matter-Eater Lad (ehem)
Famiglia = Superman (the most saves)
Gee = Robin (a sidekick at best)
Murphy = GL/Guy Gardner (a-hole)
Granderson = Flash/Jay Garrick (used to be fast)
Tejada = Jarvis (doesn't do much but clean up aftewards)
deGrom = Doc Samson (long locks + power)
Cuddyer = Luke Cage (Hero for Hire)

[Benjamin Grimm]

For Duda, I agree that Concrete is a better choice than Hulk.

oh, and:
Niese = Batgirl (Alfred's niece, and Harvey/Batman's bitch)

[Edgy MD]

Hey, wayaminnit!

Niese is Hawkman. Yesterday, today, always.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Or at least until Carlos Beltran ponies up some more dough.

[Gwreck]

Niese did get the rhinoplasty, though:

[Edgy MD]

Yes and he's still the man.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Bobby Parnell makes a perfect Punisher.

Alex Torres = Wizard? Leader?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Modok?

[Edgy MD]

Juggernaut.

[Frayed Knot]

Cuddyer = Silver Surfer
In honor of his hair.
