Believe it or not, it has been worse for Mets – NYPOST.com

I’m still catching up on things.  This is from the other day in the Post, and it mentions Lee Mazzilli who usually gets a mention around these parts on Saturday.

I’m heading out to Queens with The Braves Fan (he’s ok, don’t hassle him, it’s not his fault he grew up in Atlanta in the 1990’s). I have decided to go 1994 Swoosh Jersey today since I haven’t worn that one yet.  Hey we have to celebrate ALL 50 years don’t we?

This was the lineup Joe Torre sent out onto Wrigley Field on April 5, 1979: Lee Mazzilli, CF; Kelvin Chapman, 2B; Richie Hebner, 3B; John Stearns, C; Willie Montanez, 1B; Steve Henderson, LF; Elliott Maddox, RF; Doug Flynn, SS; Craig Swan, P. Yes, that is John “Bad Dude” Stearns — 46 lifetime homers — as your cleanup hitter.

  1. Crap, I was going to mention that John Stearns is one of the most underrated Mets of all time, and there is a link to the story. Oh, well…Either way…still true.
