These are cool although I wonder why the MLB Shop is saying “debut” since I wrote about this back on January 6th. (Wait until everyone finds out in a few days about the Celtic jersey).
Anyways, you can go pretty deep on these. Even Kingman/Wilson is pretty “boring” considering you could order a “Richard Aguilera” (read this post for more mocking).

metspolice What years would be considered. “era appropriate” for these jerseys?
The color of these should officially be called “‘it’ll never sell’ blue.”
metspolice When did the Mets wear jerseys that looked like this? Trying to be era appropriate.
STLMetsFan5 metspolice I think they wore them as alternates in the 80s.
The closest game jersey they wore was a road alternate in 1982:

Those had different stripes, gray outlines and front numbers that the replica did not.
The replica is close to the early 80s batting practice jerseys…but those had front numbers and no names on back.
