Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling
Edgy MD Nov 13 2016 02:20 AM |
New York Mets players have won 21 National League Silver Slugger Awards, representing all nine defensive positions. (They have interestingly won zero American League Silver Slugger Awards and none as DH's.)

Technically, that's sort of two guesses in a row, since the two intervening posts weren't really guesses. But the judges are allowing it owing to the ambiguity in the rules.

I'm not guessing on this question because I know the heartbreak of a negative score. But Eddie Murray won a Silver Slugger in the AL before he came to the Mets. Later
|
Edgy MD Nov 13 2016 04:22 PM Re: Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling |
Centerfield joins our leaders. Hammie won the second of his five consecutive silver slugger awards during his one year with the Mets, despite his less-than-stellar .586 OPS.
|
Mets Guy in Michigan Nov 13 2016 04:24 PM Re: Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling |
Gotta be Keith at first. I'll say his first full year when he turned the team around 1984.
|
Edgy MD Nov 13 2016 04:36 PM Re: Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling |
Correct. One of two Mets that may well have won a Silver Slugger while using cocaine.

Finally, some wrong guessin'. Good guessin', but wrong guessin'. At lease you guys have company.
And he homered off of Bryan Hickerson and OPS'd at .649. The best batting year of his career. You are correct.
1997 was the year of good Olerud, not great Olerud.
Is this just a comment or a guess? 1998 should have been the Year of Olerud. But a loose doping regime turned it into the year some juicebox in St. Louis hit a gajillion homeruns. p: Dwight Gooden, 1992 (Mets Guy in Michigan), Mike Hampton, 2000 (Centerfield) c: Gary Carter, 1986 (d'Kong), Mike Piazza, 1998 (Centerfield), Mike Piazza, 1999 (Centerfield), Mike Piazza, 2000 (Chad Ochoseis), Mike Piazza, 2001 (Rockin' Doc) 1b: Keith Hernandez, 1984 (Mets Guy in Michigan) 2b: Edgardo Alfonzo, 1999 (Valadius) 3b: Howard Johnson, 1989 (Mets Guy in Michigan), Howard Johnson, 1991 (Gwreck), David Wright, 2007 (Gwreck), David Wright, 2008 (Mets Guy in Michigan) ss: José Reyes, 2006 (Valadius) lf: Yoenis Céspedes, 2016 (Rockin' Doc) cf: Carlos Beltrán, 2006 (Chad Ochoseis) rf: Darryl Strawberry, 1988 (Zvon) Incorrect: John Olerud, 1997 (Gwreck), John Olerud, 1998 (Centerfield) SCORE Mets Guy in Michigan: 12 Centerfield: 8 Gwreck: 6 Rockin' Doc: 6 Valadius: 6 Chad Ochoseis: 5 d'Kong76: 3 Zvon: 3

Not a guess. Just saying the year he was referencing was 1998, not '97, to see if he wanted to change his guess.
|
Centerfield Nov 14 2016 02:22 PM Re: Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling |
Need to get some points back. '85 Carter was the better year. I'll say Gary, in '85, at catcher, with a candlestick.
|
Edgy MD Nov 14 2016 02:30 PM Re: Kwiz: Sticks of Sterling |
Boom! Points for Carter and restoring your lost point gives you a four-point turnaround. You're tied for the lead with six Mets still on the board.

That is correct. In 1991, young Tom Glavine hit .230 / .288 / .243 // .531, which isn't much from an extra-base hit perspective, even in the pre-roid era, but he garnered his only career stolen base, and he laid down 15 successful sacrifice bunts.

Meh. When I'm bored, I look at the batting records of good hitting pitchers on bbref. I was pretty sure he'd won a Silver Slugger at some point, and I thought he'd had a pretty weak season as the resident Crafty Veteran on the Mets a few years back.

It's not over yet. That 1988 pitcher is still open, and it's bugging me. Pitchers should be easy; the few pitchers who can hit - the Glavines, Smoltzes, Colons, Zambranos, Bumgarners, Hamptons, etc. - are all well-known, since every broadcaster in existence comments on their batting ability every time they step up to the plate.

Oops, yes. The 1988 pitcher is still out there. I'll leave it out there until this evening and then start hinting.

Indeed it was. Good for him. Leary, who hit his only career homer against Hall of Famer Steve Carlton while with the Mets in 1984, was a good hitter but no Don Robinson. His OPS+ in 1987 was the same as 1988, but he didn't have the volume of hits and ribbies to garner the award until 1988, his only Silver Slugger Campaign.
