  1. I do have a memory of Angel Berroa as a major leaguer, but zero recollection of him in a Mets uniform at all.
  2. Meh. Details. 1. 1984: Must have been those eleven hits in 27 AB that made him part of that big trade. HERM WINNINGHAM 2. 1999-2001: Came in like gangbusters, hitting 25 HR in AA/AAA in 1999, but that never translated to big-league success, finishing just 7-27 with 0 HR, all with the Mets. JORGE LUIS TOCA 3. 2007: 5-27 in a short stint as a backup outfielder. Was a reasonably highly regarded prospect who never amounted to much success either. BEN JOHNSON 4. [crossout]2011[/crossout] 2009: Won a ROY, was part of a huge three-team deal, then finished his career quietly going 4-27 as a Met. ANGEL BERROA 5. 2015: 4-27 as a backup infielder; now in camp with the Tigers. DANNY MUNO GFafif 21 JCL 15 Batmags 12 Edgy 9 Ben Grimm 8 FK 4 Hahn 3 Chad 2 DocTee 2 SteveJR 1 Lefty 1

  4. We're less than four weeks from opening day. FOUR WEEKS! So tell me about these fellas, won't you? 1. 1984: Must have been those eleven hits in 27 AB that made him part of that big trade. 2. 1999-2001: Came in like gangbusters, hitting 25 HR in AA/AAA in 1999, but that never translated to big-league success, finishing just 7-27 with 0 HR, all with the Mets. 3. 2007: 5-27 in a short stint as a backup outfielder.

  5. That's cool, everyone. Just let Greg win. WHATEVER. 1. 14th on the all-time Mets games pitched list, but only 2-28 at the plate from 1967-1971. that's DOCTOR Ron Taylor to you, bub 2. 5-24 in 1977, 0-4 in 1980... the entirety of this C/1B's major league career. LUIS ROSADO 3. 4-28 in 2014. Drafted in the 3rd round by the Rangers but only got 500 MLB at-bats.

Edgy MD wrote: I'd understand where his Nathan-and-Koehler experience might leave him with that impression, though. Not a fair point. Joe is a super nice dude. (Never met TK.)
  9. All professional athletes are douchebags.
  10. WHOA. Almost forgot to pay; expired tomorrow. Done.
  11. We went out with friends today and got to the restaurant/bar for dinner in the 8th inning. I didn't realize one of the TVs had the game on, but it was behind me; I asked my friend what the score was and he said "14-10." I said "No, not the basketball game. I can see that one." Welp.
  12. Traveled down the road (from Pittsburgh) and back again. Figured the Pirates was too easy of a hint, so I didn't use it. Well done. 1. 1965: 3-29. Big dude who was involved in the Mets "first no-hitter." KROLL 2. 1966: 1-29, 17 K. Played for the Mets and Yanks in the same season. BOB FRIEND 3. 1991: 6-29. A complete zero in his only MLB season. McDANIEL 4. 2009: 2-29. Probably the best player to ever come out of Monroe CC in Rochester. REDDING GFafif 19 JCL 13 Batmags 11 Edgy 9 Ben Grimm 6 FK 4 Hahn 3 Chad 2 SteveJR 1 Lefty 1 DocTee 1 Don't go up against Greg in Obscure Mets Jeopardy, by the way. The points will start to pick up, folks, so get your guessing hats on. Don't let Greg run away with this. We've got three 28s, five 27s, and four 26s... and then it starts to blast wide open, with NINE points available each day Thursday and Friday.
  13. Edgy picks up one, Greg picks up two, and our mystery MetYank is still on the board. (Reniff will show up again in a few weeks.) 1. 1965: 3-29. Big dude who was involved in the Mets "first no-hitter." KROLL 2. 1966: 1-29, 17 K. Played for the Mets and Yanks in the same season. 3. 1991: 6-29. A complete zero in his only MLB season.

  14. Three pitchers and an outfielder today. 1. 1965: 3-29. Big dude who was involved in the Mets "first no-hitter." 2. 1966: 1-29, 17 K. Played for the Mets and Yanks in the same season. 3. 1991: 6-29. A complete zero in his only MLB season. 4. 2009: 2-29. Probably the best player to ever come out of Monroe CC in Rochester.
  15. Greg with the two-pointer! GFafif 16 JCL 13 Batmags 11 Edgy 8 Ben Grimm 6 FK 4 Hahn 3 Chad 2 SteveJR 1 Lefty 1 DocTee 1
  16. 1998: 8 for 30. June pickup for the pennant drive who never quite did what we hoped. 2010: 6 for 30. Utility guy who's already been a wrong guess.
  17. 1. 1998: 6-31. Outfielder who finished fourth in the ROY balloting in 1993 with Cleveland. 2. 2012-13: 7-31. Corner infielder who will spend 2017 with the Atlantic League's Somerset Patriots. GFafif 14 JCL 13 Batmags 11 Edgy 8 Ben Grimm 6 FK 4 Hahn 3 Chad 2 SteveJR 1 Lefty 1 DocTee 1
  18. "What, you were expecting someone else?" 1. 1998: 6-31. Outfielder who finished fourth in the ROY balloting in 1993 with Cleveland. 2. 2012-13: 7-31. Corner infielder who will spend 2017 with the Atlantic League's Somerset Patriots.

  20. Yes, you're right. Rivera is to his left.

  22. TJ Rivera. Gelbs is talking to him now, asking if his teammates are giving him shit for ducking while Luis was in there SAVING LIVES.
  23. Guillorme gonna guillorme. [tweet:dlipl6s0] [/tweet:dlipl6s0]
  24. Hey, I'm watching baseball in my office. Cool.
  25. Fantastic work all around right there. 1. 1962: 11-32 with 3 HR (!!), which gave him far and away the highest OPS+ of any 1962 Met. 1B/OF. JIM MARSHALL 2. 1980-83: 7-32 in 43 games. Spent his entire MLB career with the Mets, but did nothing of any memorable significance that I could find. SCOTT HOLMAN 3. 1998: 6-32 after a midseason acquisition to help fill a hole created by another midseason acquisition.
