Going out for a run, so will start wityh a vague round of clues: a) Of the remaining 6 players we're looking for 3 pitchers, and 3 position players b) None of the 6 were Mets in the 60s or 70s. seawolf17 Aug 03 2009 07:05 PM Timo?

Valadius Aug 03 2009 08:51 PM Ron Gardenhire John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 03 2009 09:34 PM Not Gardenhire. Players are hereby forbidden to view the remaining answers on mbtn.net, although I left onof the remainders off that list too to run trivia there. This is a great triv question if I may say so. Edgy DC Aug 03 2009 09:36 PM Jefe Innis. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 08:12 AM Not Innis. Time for more clues: The other five-timer was a Met as recently as 2007. Of the two remaining four-timers, one was a position player and the other a pitcher. They were teammates for three seasons during this decade. Valadius Aug 04 2009 08:20 AM Mike DiFelice John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 08:23 AM DiFelice it is, Mr. 5-time. Two 4-timers left, one a pitcher, one a position player. Played on three Met teams together this decade (but not necessarily three Met teams only). Edgy DC Aug 04 2009 08:32 AM Gerald Williams. Orber Moreno. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 08:42 AM Neither Orber nor Gerald. Next clue: This is a great trivia question LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 04 2009 08:56 AM Jay Payton Jae Seo John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 09:07 AM Neither Jay nor Jae.

So now... who is the final guy to be added to the 40-man roster four different times? LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 04 2009 09:29 AM Frankly, I'm kinda stunned it's NOT Grant Roberts. This round of trivia buffet, I'll have the Benny Agbayani, and the Pete Walker. EDIT: Scratch my Benny; I'll have what Val's having (good call). Same side order, though. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 09:31 AM This question is extremely awesome. And you've all played it just like I thought you would. (not Walker) Edgy DC Aug 04 2009 09:33 AM Who is Bill Pulsipher? Thank you very much, Alex. I'll move on Potent Potables for $400.

[/quote:3faupubx] FYI: I will not cut off my own ankle to win this trivia contest. Valadius Aug 04 2009 09:41 AM This really has been a great trivia question. I'm stumped on the final pitcher. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 10:07 AM ]Bill Pulsipher Wrong. Clue: Start thinking about the last guy you'd guess. Fman99 Aug 04 2009 10:59 AM Traschel?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 04 2009 12:46 PM The answer is Franco. Traded for once, re-signed as a free agent three times.
