For the first All-Star Game of the new millennium, the Mets sent 3 players to the festivities. Fonzie was named to his first and only All-Star game in 2000. He had a killer year, batting .324 with 25 homers and 94 RBI’s. That’s pretty damn nice from 2nd base. He came into the All-Star game […]

This is the fourth post in this series. We’ve looked at the field generals, the men who’ve donned the tools of ignorance, and the guys who’ve thrown the first pitch of the season. Today we’ll be taking a trip back through time to see who’s covered the first base bag for the Mets throughout their […]

Back about a million years ago (or at least it seems that long ago to me) (seriously, it took me about 20 minutes of hitting “Older Posts” and scrolling down to find the post I was looking for), The Cardboard Junkie put out a call for all your blank pack searcher decoy thingies in exchange […]

A while back, Ryan from “O” No! Another Orioles Blog had contacted me about having some cards from my Mets wantlist.
