  5. Matt Harvey is our current reigning champion. Now it starts to get a little trickier. 1. Matt Harvey (202 covers) 2. Jacob deGrom (196 covers) 3. Yoenis Cespedes (168 covers) 4.

  11. I decided to leverage (and expand) the collection of tabloid covers used in the Tabloid Cover Derbies and present them as content on the UMDB. I added a bunch of older covers, dating back to 2008, to the collection. Here are some examples: http://leaptoad.com/mets/Home Page http://leaptoad.com/mets/gamedetail.php?gameno=9307Box Score Page http://leaptoad.com/mets/profile.php?PlayerCode=1000&tabno=B&coverYear=2019Player Page http://leaptoad.com/mets/metannual.php?ThisYear=2019&tabno=V&activeMonth=AugustSeason Page And now, the QUIZ! Who are the twenty Mets personalities (real humans, Mister Met doesn't count) who have appeared on the most covers since 2008? (Note: The years 2015 through 2021 are more heavily represented, because the years 2008 through 2014 are limited to the Daily News and the Post. No Newsday for those years.) So let's fill in the blanks. Sixteen of the twenty are players and four have never played for the Mets. Usual guessing rules apply. One guess per post and no additional guesses until someone else has posted, or existing guesses have been acknowledged. 1. ____________________ (202 covers) 2. ____________________ (196 covers) 3. ____________________ (168 covers) 4. ____________________ (146 covers) 5. ____________________ (131 covers) 6. ____________________ (95 covers) 7. ____________________ (87 covers) 8. ____________________ (85 covers) 9. ____________________ (73 covers) 10. ____________________ (66 covers) 11. ____________________ (57 covers) 12. ____________________ (54 covers) 13. ____________________ (48 covers) 14(t). ____________________ (47 covers) 14(t). ____________________ (47 covers) 16. ____________________ (46 covers) 17. ____________________ (40 covers) 18. ____________________ (38 covers) 19. ____________________ (37 covers) 20. ____________________ (33 covers)
  12. They were responding to a 911 call and apparently got there in time to see Ozuna attempting to strangle his wife.

  14. . http://phpbb3.leaptoad.com/mets/archives/2300/f1_t2382.shtmlNickname Methodology!
  15. Let's take a moment to remember Danny Frisella. http://leaptoad.com/mets/clippings/00021.jpg>
  16. I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Definitely Tovar and Lee. Maybe Barnes instead of Smith?
  17. Call it. Or make it a bullpen game. Let deGrom pitch tomorrow in Phoenix.

  19. About a week's worth of runs in one inning.
  20. Frayed Knot wrote: Flaa? Really? You were expecting maybe Zack Pop?
  21. Okay... I had been thinking that the last three innings would be May, Familia, Diaz but now I'd like to see Barnes and Smith finish it out, unless the score narrows, of course.
  22. Nice! Give up one then get back two!
