All time Mets leaders in Runs scored
We have a two-way tie for the all-time lead, and with David Wright idled, we're likely to make that a three-way tie before long.

A little late to this party but that's insane - 1925 was the last time someone had at least 26 in a season? And Jose's on pace for 28-29? Wowzers.

Pssst, hey Jose - you know where the best park to hit triples is right? How about re-upping for a few years? You give us a discount, you get a chance to be known as the 'Triple King'? How about that? Pretty cool nickname riiiiight?

So basically he's on pace to wind up with the 2nd most triples in 'modern baseball' history; aka, the most in just under a century.

I'll likely never forget him, with him having his worst game in a 7-1 loss to the Nats I took in, when I couldn't even clap because of a not-yet-diagnosed fracture in my hand.

John Lannan vs. John Maine. It's always those two with me.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

Not much movement on the DOUBLES list since we last checked in a few weeks ago. (That's largely because Jose keeps insisting on taking that third base.)

DOUBLES
1. David Wright 266
2. Ed Kranepool 225
3. Howard Johnson 214
4. Edgardo Alfonzo 212
5. José Reyes 211
6. Carlos Beltran 199
7. Mike Piazza 193
8. Darryl Strawberry 187
9. Cleon Jones 182
10. Mookie Wilson 170


Also, tomorrow night, Jose Reyes is due to become the tenth Mets player to appear in 1,000 games. He won't pass anyone else this year, unless David Wright fails to come back as expected. If Jose plays every game the rest of the season, hell finish just a few games shy of Edgardo Alfonzo. But, if he comes back in 2012, he'll be poised (with a healthy season) to pass Fonzie, Darryl, Mookie, Hojo, and Cleon.


GAMES
1. Ed Kranepool 1853
2. Bud Harrelson 1322
3. Jerry Grote 1235
4. Cleon Jones 1201
5. Howard Johnson 1154
6. Mookie Wilson 1116
7. Darryl Strawberry 1109
8. Edgardo Alfonzo 1086
9. David Wright 1043
10. José Reyes 999

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

Where does Jose rank in career defensive stats - putouts, assists total chances and errors for Met shortstops? I'm guessing his comp would be Bud Harrelson.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

I don't have that info handy, but I can give you games played at shortstop. (Remember, Jose was a secondbaseman for a little while.)

1. Bud Harrelson 1281
2. José Reyes 951
3. Rey Ordóñez 907
4. Kevin Elster 524
5. Rafael Santana 478
6. Frank Taveras 372
7. Roy McMillan 335
8. Howard Johnson 263
9. José Vizcaino 236
10. Ron Gardenhire 230

Jose is a little bit ahead of Rey Ordonez, but still significantly behind Bud Harrelson.

Jun 27 2011 09:26 AM
Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

I remember Bud having great range. He was probably the best I ever saw going back on pop flies down the left field line, taking "doubles" away from opposing hitters. But he had more strikeout pitchers on the staff, so the other numbers, especially total chances, might be very close. (just guessing)

Jun 27 2011 09:58 AM
Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

Harrelson fielding totals as a SS
11,510 Innings played:
2,387 Put-outs
3,975 Assists
203 Errors

Reyes:
8,385 Innings Played
1,299 Put-outs
2,592 Assists
105 Errors



About 750 or so of those Harrelson innings were NOT as a NYM but, with even a full season consisting of about 1,400 innings, Reyes is still a ways away from matching Bud for longevity.
And if you're really looking for a comparison you'd want to account for Reyes playing in a more offense-oriented era but at the same time in a higher strike-out (fewer balls-in-play) era.

David Wright finally broke that months-long tie with Darryl Strawberry on the runs scored list:

1. José Reyes 703
2. David Wright 664
3. Darryl Strawberry 662

And... Jose Reyes recently became the first Met to score 700 runs!

Jose Reyes now has 99 triples, which ties him with Jimmy Rollins for 3rd on the Active list. Next up (yeah, like Rollins is gonna keep pace?) is Johnny Damon with 104, which might also be doable this year. Crawford has 109.

That would be the All-Time Active List of course.
Jose just tied Larry Bowa (among others) for 161st place in the career triples race.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

The good thing about the All-Time list with a stat like triples is that with each new one he'll catch & pass several guys at once and move up the list in multiple steps.

With two more, for instance (and, hell, that could be later today), he'll not only leave behind his ties with Bowa, Rollins, Phil Cavaretta, and Jack Tobin, but also leap past Hi Myers and Dan McCann (100 each) and into a new tie for 156th place (101) with Stuffy McInnis, Cupid Childs, and Sam West.




OK, I admit it, I really just put up this post so I could type out some of those names.

This is kind of nutty: Daniel Murphy, who hasn't played in about a month, still leads the team in games played this season. This isn't likely to last: Murphy has 109, and there are a few players just behind him:

Murphy, Daniel 109
Bay, Jason 108
Pagan, Angel 107
Reyes, Jose 105
Harris, Willie 105
Turner, Justin 101

the RBI list is pretty nuts too. Bay's 5th. (32 more PAs than Murphy too)

Beltran 66
Pagan 52
Murphy 49
Wright 49
Bay 48
Turner 46

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

That's awful. I remember as a kid being fascinated by "team leader" cards, and how you'd have a guy hitting .260 as the "team leader." (This was before I understood minimum PA requirements.) I always thought, "man, that team must have sucked last year if THAT guy led them in hitting."

So our team RBI leader for the year is going to be somewhere in the mid-60s. Bleh.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

I'm not too down on that. Look at it this way --- we've pretty much had four starting firstbasemen, which is bad. But all four have more or less performed. Nobody accumulates all the numbers, but it beats watching a guy go down and having squishy guys like Miguel Cairo in the lineup all year.

Sucks to get guys hurt, though.

Well that's true, the Mets have roughly as many RBI as the Phillies as a team. More ties into the games played thing with no one around long enough (besides Bay) to really get a high number.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

Duda's lone RBI in the game pushes him past Moises Alou, int a five-way tie with Jesse Gonder, Charlie O'Brien, Felix Mantilla, and teammate Josh Thole at 59. One more and he ties Tom Seaver (and Mike Phillips) at 130th all-time. I think that just about makes a man a Met.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

The team lead in games played, after 160 games, is a tie between Jose Reyes and Willie Harris, at 124.

Angel Pagan is next with 123, and then Jason Bay with 122.

Jose has clinched at bats, runs, hits, triples, and stolen bases. He currently leads in doubles with 31, but Justin Turner is right behind him at 30. (Carlos Beltran also has 30, but he's very unlikely to add to that.) Jose will also end up winning all of the "triple slash" categories.

Beltran's 66 RBI is likely to end up as the leader, but David Wright with a strong two days can tie or pass that. (He has 60.)

Among the pitchers, R.A. Dickey will have the best ERA at 3.28, and Dillon Gee's 13 wins will be the most. Dickey will lead in innings with 208.2 and the team strikeout leader will be Chris Capuano, who currently has 159.

And Francisco Rodriguez will be the save leader with his 23.

Start Dickey on the last day and maybe he can pitch his way into the top ten in ERA, and maybe claim a second consecutive Craig Swan Award.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

he needs 7 innings of 0-run ball, or 10 innings of 1-run ball to best jordan zimmerman's 3.18 ERA, and make it into the top ten, assuming no other movement among the leaders.

It's irrelevant as he's not starting. I imagine he's already shut it down and didn't do his inbetween start work and what not.

Re: Where Mets Rank in 2011

The Craig Swan Award was established in 2010 to honor those who light an ERA candle rather than curse the second division darkness.

Lighting an ERA candle = finishing in the top ten in ERA.
Second division darkness = finishing in the bottom half of a division with an even number of teams or finishing in the center of a division with an odd number of teams, but closer to last than first.

I didn't actually think the Mets were going to change their plans in order to help one of their players win an award from the Crane Pool.

I suspect it's a combo of Reyes and Collins. And I suspect that suggestion of restraint had more to do with him hesitating around first last night, and getting thrown out when he thought the ball was going home instead of just gunning it.

I remember it as just a chance to have him finish the season with an appearance at home so he could get a nice hand from the fans.

Interesting strategy. Encourage Jose to play at a somewhat subdued level in the guise of preserving his health, but at the same time emphasizing his fragility to potential off-season suitors.
