    Here’s hoping sooner. Gate receipts from guaranteed playoff games largely go to the players, so maybe they’ll care about this during the upcoming CBA negotiations. All seriousness, we know the real money is in TV and thus that dictates the timeslots. What continues to baffle me is that it’s more profitable for TV to show games at 2 and 5 PM versus, say, staggering the starts at 6, 7, 8, and 9 PM. I guess it must be, since they keep doing it that way…but it sure seems odd.
  2. Gwreck
    Yes. Ventura is #11 with 37 career postseason games.
  3. Gwreck
    That’s our #1 answer. Olerud also had several appearances with Seattle and then also Boston and that other NY team at the end of his career. 1. John Olerud 66 2. Carlos Beltran 65 3. Curtis Granderson 64 4. Rickey Henderson 60 5. Travis D’Arnaud 57 6. 7. 8t. Francisco Lindor 41 8t. JD Martinez 41 10. Darryl Strawberry 40 11. 12. Tom Glavine 35 13. 14. Willie Mays 33. He’s the highest number to have not played at least one postseason game in 1995 or later. Too few games Shawn Green Bartolo Colon Julio Franco David Cone Octavio Dotel Mike Piazza Todd Zeile Carlos Delgado Didn’t play in postseason for Mets Adrian Gonzalez Andres Gimenez Jeff Kent Justin Turner Trot Nixon
  4. Gwreck
    Carlos’ only postseason games were the 10 he played with the Mets in 2006. .352/.442/.757 in those 10 games too. Could’ve been NLCS MVP
  5. Gwreck
    Only 29 for Todd
  6. Gwreck
    Piazza - 32 Dotel - 26 Cone - 21 No pitchers on the list other than Glavine. Hints: all of these guys had played in the postseason with at least one other franchise before reaching it with the Mets.
  7. Gwreck
    Trot’s only year with the Mets was 2008.
  8. Gwreck
    The paid attendance for this game was 30,127 — meaning there were more than 10,000 empty seats in Atlanta/whatever suburb that park is located in yesterday. It’s almost as if selling tickets with no gametime and not announcing it until 48 hours in advance is not fan-friendly.
  9. Gwreck
    31 postseason games for Julio, a little short of this list.
  10. Gwreck
    Justin did not appear in the postseason for the Mets.
  11. Gwreck
    Only 17 postseason appearances for Bartolo.
  12. Gwreck
    As a New Yorker, there’s much that I find offensive about the Yankees but the fact that they’re profitable for TV broadcasts is not one of them. New York is where the most people (and most baseball fans) live and thus its teams are more likely to get the most important viewing windows. This benefits the Mets too (and especially as an attendee) in years in which they make the postseason.

    Duran was brought in in the seventh inning after the Phillies took the lead. Pitched a 1-2-3 seventh but things unraveled in the eighth.

  15. Gwreck
    Shawn Green only played in 13 career postseason games, 9 with the Mets. He missed Toronto’s runs and the Dodgers weren’t that good in the 00s. Kent was with the Mets from 92-96 so no postseason there. He played in 49 career postseason games with other teams.

    1. 2. Carlos Beltran 65 3. Curtis Granderson 64 4. Rickey Henderson 60 5. 6. 7. 8t. Francisco Lindor 41 8t. JD Martinez 41 10. 11. 12. Tom Glavine 35 13. 14. Willie Mays 33. He’s the highest number to have not played at least one postseason game in 1995 or later. Didn’t play in postseason for Mets Adrian Gonzalez Andres Gimenez (Yes, there was a counting error when I put up the list initially)
  17. Gwreck
    1. 2. Carlos Beltran 65 3. Rickey Henderson 60 4. 5. 6. 7t. Francisco Lindor 41 7t. JD Martinez 41 9. 10. Tom Glavine 35 11. 12. Willie Mays 33. He’s the highest number to have not played at least one postseason game in 1995 or later. * * * Adrian Gonzalez did not play in the postseason for the Mets.
  18. Gwreck
    Lavender is my pick, not because he did as much but because he was the true dark-horsiest of the bunch.
  19. Gwreck
    Give me…Todd Zeile for both lists!
  20. Gwreck
    1. 2. Carlos Beltran 65 3. Rickey Henderson 60 4. 5. 6. 7t. Francisco Lindor 41 7t. JD Martinez 41 9. 10. 11. 12. Willie Mays 33. He’s the highest number to have not played at least one postseason game in 1995 or later. * * * Adrian Gonzalez did not play in the postseason for the Mets.

    Steve, you have a different definition of “craze” than I do. But, we can still make this into something productive. Trivia time: who are the 5 players with the most career postseason games played who also played at least 1 postseason game for the Mets?
  23. Gwreck
    Marlon Byrd? Maybe he was a Ranger long enough?
  24. Gwreck
    My guy Dylan Ross had a 0.00 ERA and a 0.000 WHIP for the Mets this year. Just saying.
  25. Gwreck
    Biggio went to Kings Park HS though
