    He's already stolen 70 bases in a season the minors, and he stole 43 at three levels this season, so 50 is certainly within reach. I'm less interested in him hitting homeruns, so much as reaching that .395 OBP level that he put up over his minor-league career.

    Is that camera Oil Can is holding?

    But Mookie is the sun. Mookie is the rain. Mookie makes my life this foolish game. Tom Seaver is Tom Seaver.

    Mookie's the bee's knees. He's a cat-in-pajamas print pattern on the pajamas of a cat in pajamas. He's the soft, crunchy taco inside the soft crunch taco.

    I agree that I could do better. I disagree that these were "two historically bad" seasons. Distorting the picture only leads to poorer decisions.

    It had kind of been slow-motion unsettling how little reporting there had been on this as the season wound down, so thanks for sharing the article. I kind of hope for him to come back wearing a helmet on defense, for my peace of mind as much as anything.

    So, so close, Mike! If you just somehow didn't crawl into that deep, dark hole in the 2000 post-season, you might be telling your kids how you beat Willie Mays! I'll go with Cliff Floyd the Ever-Popular Met. He should have piled up some Marlins appearances.
  8. Edgy MD
    Yeah! Bobby Bonilla is my new ride-or-die! Mike Bordick Nixon.
  9. Edgy MD
    Yeah, I'd take some punches and kicks for Lindor, and probably some nunchucks for David Wright.
  10. Edgy MD
    I've got a lot of favorite Mets. Mookie is probably the only one I'd possibly take a bullet for.
  11. Edgy MD
    Bobby Blue Bland Bonilla.
  12. Edgy MD
    Darryl Hamilton Ontario.

    Yes! YES!!! Shout 'em out if you know them!! Shout 'em out if you just think them!! Answer like a man, not a mouse!! Greg Harris, who leans into your sweet spot by debuting as a Torre-era Met in 1981, but was still bringing it (somehow throwing almost exclusively curveballs) well into the 1990s, is our #13 dude! Greg spent the heart of his career pitching about 110 innings per year, almost all of them out of the bullpen, for the Rangers. That'll get you some bWAR!! TWENTY bWAR-RIEST RANGERS WHO ALSO PLAYED FOR THE METS Kenny Rogers 31.2 bWAR Marcus Semien 21.1 Julio Franco 20.2 Nolan Ryan 15.2 Jon Matlack 12.4 Gary Matthews, Jr. 10.2 Darren Oliver 9.3 Marlon Byrd 8.9 Frank Tanana 7.7 Frank Catalanotto 6.9 (tie) Doc Medich 6.9 (tie) Greg Harris 6.5 Jacob deGrom 5.8 Del Unser 5.3

    Dude #13 was a groundbreaker as far as the assets he deployed. He also sometimes chose to use a middle initial to distinguish himself from an MLB contemporary with the same first and last name.
  15. Edgy MD
    Elliott Maddox sits just outside this list at 22nd, with 3.9 bWAR. He, again, might have done better, but he was stuck in the strange pattern of getting traded whenever Billy Martin took over a team, and that's what happened to the Rangers at the end of 1973.
  16. Edgy MD
    Fellow #14 also had a Hall-of-Fame name, and even got a Hall-of-Fame vote, which angered one or two Twitter users. He capped his career with a pretty replaceable stint for the Mets, but with the Rangers ... with the Rangers, he was somebody.
  17. Edgy MD
    Let's get serious, then. Um ... Octavio Dotel.
  18. Edgy MD
    Trot Nixon, legendary president/cross-country champ.
  19. Edgy MD
    Yeah, that's an oily cause. I looked him up after answering with him and he actually played in one gajillion post-season games. Let's try Joolio Franco. He was a Brave for a bunch of years.
  20. Edgy MD
    Dude #9 was a productive long-time semi-regular with the Rangers, but only got into a dozen games with the Mets. He had a Hall-of-Fame name and brought some solid Abraham Lincoln chinbeard action.
  21. Edgy MD
    I was about to type Justin Turner when I foolishly pivoted to Shawn Green. The universe has either forgiven me or is setting me up for further shame, as Turner's name is still out there. Justin Turner.
  22. Edgy MD
    I'm sorry I am not recording missed guesses (or tabulating points for that matter), but Dock Ellis has been guessed.
  23. Edgy MD
    Shawn Green.
  24. Edgy MD
    GOOD ANSWER! GOOD ANSWER! Tanana at #10 also joins with Catalanotto at #11 to form a neat little Frank Block. Gary, Jr. was actually called Sarge, Jr., so he actually shared his father's fantasy military status. He is also correct! In the number 6 slot with 10.2 bWAR!! Todd Zeile is ... incorrect for both lists!! Kenny Rogers 31.2 bWAR Marcus Semien 21.1 Julio Franco 20.2 Nolan Ryan 15.2 Jon Matlack 12.4 Gary Matthews, Jr. 10.2 Darren Oliver 9.3 Marlon Byrd 8.9 Frank Tanana 7.7 Frank Catalanotto 6.9 (tie) Doc Medich 6.9 (tie) Jacob deGrom 5.8 Del Unser 5.3

    I'm not sure where the cutoff for "most career postseason games played" is, unless it is somehow a five-way tie, but I will open with Carlos Beltran.
