1992 started yet another stretch where the Mets were only sending the minimum 1 player to the ASG. David Cone headed to the All-Star Game. It wouldn’t be his last, but it would be his last in a Mets uniform. He pitched a 1-2-3 4th inning, facing 3 future Hall of Famers. He got Roberto […]

Being that this is the 50th Anniversary of the existence of the Mets, I’m taking a look at the guys who have played each position for the team throughout the years. In cardboard form, of course. Now, since I don’t want to sit here and scan 1,000,000 cards so that I can show every single […]
