The Mets were back to a one All-Star performance in 1999, but at least he was a legit All-Star and not just chosen because they had to pick someone. Piazza once again donned the tools of ignorance for the National League, starting the game behind the plate. He went 1 for 2 with a strikeout. […]

This is the third post in this series. So far we’ve covered the men who have served as the manager of the Mets and the men who’ve caught the pitches. Today we’re going to take a look at some of the guys who have thrown those pitches. Initially, I was toying with the idea of […]
