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 […]

We’re getting close, but we still have a few years to go. I hope I can get these all done before Friday. In 1998 the Mets once more sent 2 players to the ASG. This guy’s name is synonymous with the term All-Star, isn’t it? I mean, I know when I think of a baseball […]

Well, I’m not quite sure how I feel about that game last night. Being a National League guy, I’m definitely psyched that they won in such decisive fashion and I’m happy to see that they’re putting together a streak of their own after losing to the A.L. for so many years in a row. I […]

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 […]
