This is a strong group.

In addition to my 4 (Hunt, Johnson, Noble, Mazzilli) I'd consider Sid and Trachsel (isn;t he the winningest Met of the 00s or something?

Surprised to see Hurt and Likely Bruised Ron Hunt running second in this group.

Sid, Davey, Mazzilli, Hunt. Would have loved to have snuck Ventura in there, but he was tackled by his teammates at second.

Davey is a no brainer.

Marty is tougher - I think he deserves to be in, but that can't be done until after he retires from the beat.

Re: Mets Hall of Fame Group E

I'm not sure why retirement should be a pre-requisite, especially for guys with the type of job they can keep doing until forever.

Similarly, I don't think it's necessary to withold a vote for Valentine because you want him back to. Nothing wrong with a Hall of Famer continuing to work or returning to work.

Davey, Davey Johnson, the only one I voted for here.


Ron Hunt was close, but he was only around for three years.

I think I worded that poorly. I think Bobby is a not quite yet - He would need to add to his credentials to be put in, and I want them to hire him back. Two separate things, actually.

As for Marty, I'm thinking retirement would be a pre-requisite for the same reason that some papers don't allow their writers to vote on post-season awards. There could be a sense of a conflict of interest.

Well, I hear you, but he's got no conflict with us. We's independent.

Only three years, but the first one was the equivalent to an eternity of bliss.
