Orosco (last game 9/27/03) was the last member of the '86 Mets to retire from baseball. Jesse outlasted the next to last remaining '86 Met by two full seasons.

I thought Straw played until 2000 or thereabouts.

Tom O'Malley. (OE: No, I'm conflating him with Corcoran.)

batmagadanleadoff Nov 03 2010 10:04 AM Re: Quiz Time -- '86 Mets content

One Met to go. Here's a hint. This Met was mentioned on this forum in at least one other thread, very recently.

HahnSolo Nov 03 2010 10:10 AM Re: Quiz Time -- '86 Mets content

Gibbons?

For the record, neither Gooden, Elster nor Aguilera played MLB the 21st century. But good quiz nonetheless.

MFS62 Nov 05 2010 08:13 AM Re: Quiz Time -- '86 Mets content

Wasn't there a thread that led to a question about opponents of the 1986 team who still played into the 21st Century? Was it spun off or renamed? I posted an answer and am trying to find out if I was correct. Later
