Shhh. Do you hear that? It’s the sound of a minor league third baseman weeping gently into his pillow. He’s not going anywhere. Looks like this card could be a reality.

I’ve got to get this up before 4:10. Of course I had to leave right field for last. The Mets have had more right fielders in their history than any other position. Typical. Anyway… In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the New York Mets, I’ve been looking at the primary players at each position […]

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 […]

As I was listening to the Yankees / Tigers game tonight (or at least as far as they got) either Ron Darling or they other guy mentioned in passing that Justin Verlander won the A.L. Pitching Triple Crown this year. Although I can’t say that I was aware of that fact, I also can’t say […]

Can I just start things off by saying that last night was one of the best baseball watching nights I’ve had in what seems like forever. My head was spinning trying to keep up with all the craziness that was happening. My television was on a constant loop from ESPN for the Boston/Baltimore game to […]

So, September is upon us. This weekend is Labor Day already. We all know what that means. Even though there’s officially still 19 days left of the summer, it’s over. This is the last hoorah. For the Mets, that means 27 games left to play, and considering that they’re 22 games behind in the N.L. […]

Carlos Delgado is retiring. Apparently the official announcement will come tomorrow. I know his time with the Mets didn’t end the way we hoped, but I always liked Carlos when he was on the team. I was really hoping for him to come back healthy after his hip injury in 2009. I thought if he […]

5 more days until baseball. Glorious baseball. Or at least the Mets version of baseball. Starting at third for the 1986 Mets, position #5 on your scorecard, was Ray Knight. I always kind of forget that 1986 was close to the end of the road for Ray Knight. I guess because I didn’t pay much […]
