I don't think Bob's Bro had any connection with the Mets, other than being the brother of The Voice of The Mets.


The Padres is Randy Jones


I was thrown off by the "with Met ties" description. if you mean x-met, say x-met!!

Si...*sigh* I'll do a second update after a few more posts come in.

A hint of the Ranger remaining actually concerns Glavine, or at least how Glavine ended up his Met career in somewhat the same fashion as this guy did.

Major hints with Brewers and Giants, both are merit and achievement based "Walls of Honor," so think about that when it comes to ex-Met Brewers or Giants.

Still looking for the members of the 2002 Angels.

The remaining Phillie is also a notorious Met villain for his performance, or lack thereof, in a Met uniform.

And so far two of the wrong guesses could have been right ones with a different franchise.

... and that's all I got.




I just took a look at the Brewers walk of fame because I was dumbstruck that the franchise could honor six one-time Mets and George Bamberger, who managed their greatest teams and managed them to their only WS and was beloved, wouldn't be one of them.

Boy is that thing liberal. It appears that if you have two or two and a half decent seasons with the Brewers, you get the honor. But not Bambi. I mean, I could see why he isn't in the Mets HOF but not in that Brewers thing? You should see some of the forgettable players on that thing.

Good quiz, but I need text. Flipping through screens of cards has me
running in circles.

LOL! Like I said, its merit based and based on various career milestones and achievements.

The Milwaukee Brewers Wall of Honor was established in 2014 to commemorate Brewers players who have made significant contributions to the team. Retired players who have met any one of seven conditions while playing for the Brewers will be enshrined in to the Wall of Honor. Active players will be enshrined upon retirement. These criteria include 2,000 or more plate appearances, 1,000 or more innings pitched, 250 or more games pitched, winning of a major award (Major League Baseball Most Valuable Player Award, Cy Young Award, Rookie of the Year Award, or Fireman of the Year Award), managing a pennant-winning team, being recognized with a statue on the Miller Park Plaza, and being elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.[1]


Only non-playing personnel on their Wall are Seilg, Uke and Harvey Kuenn. I think its Kuenn, and that era being called Harvey's Wallbangers, that get more of the credit for being the skipper of that era's Brew Crew.

I'm amazed that Roberto Alomar isn't in the Indians HOF. But the Jays must have honored him.

As far as the Indians, what about his brother Sandy, Jr?
