UMDB Most Wanted List Update 5/06

mlbaseballtalk May 07 2006 07:05 PM

Hey Yance, might as well post the latest list of the "Unknown Mets" maybe some fresh eyes can help out

SteveJRogers May 07 2006 07:12 PM

By the way, great suggestion, can you embed the instrumental Meet The Mets into the Mug shot page? Seems like every time I click on it that song enters my head, be nice if the rest of the Net had that experience every time looking at that huge page

Yancy Street Gang May 07 2006 07:21 PM

I hate web pages that play music, so I doubt that I'd ever set up something like that. Thanks for the suggestion though. Anyway, here's the current list. Only 121 player mug shots are missing: 1 Bob Gibson 2 Mauro Gozzo 3 Steve Bieser 4 Chuck McElroy 5 Alvaro Espinoza 6 Cory Lidle 7 Bruce Bochy 8 Billy Taylor 9 Toby Borland 10 Dale Murray 11 Jim Gosger 12 Willie Blair 13 C. J. Nitkowski 14 Rick White 15 Herm Winningham 16 Pat Tabler 17 Mac Scarce 18 Mike Bishop 19 Wayne Kirby 20 Jim Dwyer 21 Jim Tatum 22 Doc Medich 23 Dwight Bernard 24 Jorge Fabregas 25 Donne Wall 26 Ryan McGuire 27 Brad Clontz 28 Darrin Jackson 29 Rick Wilkins 30 Wes Gardner 31 Butch Metzger 32 Tom Sturdivant 33 Kane Davis 34 Jerry May 35 Dick Tidrow 36 Pedro Feliciano 37 Brent Strom 38 Jay Kleven 39 Mario Diaz 40 McKay Christensen 41 Brady Clark 42 Esix Snead 43 Jerry Martin 44 Tony Phillips 45 Edwin Almonte 46 Eric Cammack 47 Gary Bennett 48 Tony Castillo 49 Tom Edens 50 Phil Mankowski 51 Bob Johnson 52 Roger Mason 53 Don Schulze 54 Jorge Velandia 55 Danny Boitano 56 David Lamb 57 Don Florence 58 Barry Jones 59 Ross Jones 60 Brett Hinchliffe 61 Leon Brown 62 Brock Pemberton 63 Bob Johnson 64 Jason Middlebrook 65 Mike Birkbeck 66 Jeff Barry 67 Tom Martin 68 Ike Hampton 69 Jeff Tam 70 Bob Gallagher 71 Tim Spehr 72 Shane Halter 73 Francisco Estrada 74 Dyar Miller 75 Jonathan Hurst 76 Kenny Greer 77 Jason Anderson 78 Dave Roberts 79 Dave Eilers 80 Lou Klimchock 81 Joe Nolan 82 Joe DePastino 83 Shawn Hare 84 Tito Navarro 85 Joe Grzenda 86 Tyler Walker 87 Rick Parker 88 Tom Filer 89 Jeff Gardner 90 John Strohmayer 91 Steve Springer 92 Jeff Kaiser 93 Bob Rauch 94 Jim Mann 95 Todd Haney 96 Jim Marshall 97 Wayne Housie 98 Mickey Weston 99 Barry Manuel 100 Nick Willhite 101 Rich Sauveur 102 Mike Fyhrie 103 Kevin Morgan 104 Juan Castillo 105 Dan Murray 106 Bobby Gene Smith 107 Heath Bell 108 Don Rose 109 Don Rowe 110 Darrell Sutherland 111 Carlos Mendoza 112 Gary Thurman 113 Mike DeJean 114 Matt Watson 115 José Parra 116 Brian Buchanan 117 Tom Wilson 118 Mike DiFelice 119 Juan Padilla 120 José Santiago 121 Chad Bradford And there are 23 non-players: 1 Chris Chambliss 2 Vern Ruhle 3 Gary Pettis 4 Dal Maxvill 5 Mickey Brantley 6 Doc Edwards 7 Dick Sisler 8 Darrell Johnson 9 Ernie White 10 Bob Goldsholl 11 Dave Wallace 12 Jerry Manuel 13 Bobby Floyd 14 Rick Waits 15 Tom Burgess 16 Tom Spencer 17 Denny Sommers 18 Rick Down 19 Guy Conti 20 Al Harazin 21 Bing Devine 22 Jim Duquette 23 Phil Cavarretta

Juan Padilla needs his shades.

Gwreck May 07 2006 09:54 PM

Rick Down Guy Conti Mike DeJean also DeJean (not as good)

SteveJRogers May 07 2006 10:34 PM

Great stuff G, but the reason Yance doesn't just swipe every headshot image from MLB.com's Mets page and the "Official Headshots" is that he actually wants the images to be, well Metologically correct. With a Blue topped hat on. There is an actual criteria list somewhere, I'd have to search for it on some old UMDB Request thread...

GYC May 07 2006 10:58 PM

I think I'm going to start recording games where they play with blue hats just for the purpose of screen captures.

seawolf17 May 08 2006 05:43 PM

Jose Lima, funnier Jose Lima, better face shot?

SteveJRogers May 08 2006 06:12 PM

Uh Yance, I can't seem to find that post with your official criteria for head shots, so do you mind posting it. I think its more than just the All-Blue Cap

Gwreck May 08 2006 07:46 PM

Yeah, I know blue hats are preferred, but I was under the impression that a mugshot with Mets uniform (even if it's those stupid black hats) is better than no mugshot at all.

]# The photo has to have the player in a Mets cap or helmet, without benefit of Photoshopping. # Blue caps are preferred wherever possible. # Color beats black and white. I try to avoid b&w shots for any players from 1970 or later. (I think the only exceptions have been Jack Aker and Larry Bowa.) # Those studio mugshots where the player is in front of a blank wall are a last resort.

Happened to notice the blue-hatted absence for Wagner and Castro. Also, a blue hat picture of Duaner, who unfortunately looks like Lewis Black experiencing a moment of pleasure. Y'might be better off waiting Duaner out.

OlerudOwned May 28 2006 02:10 PM

Added to here from the IGT to keep things organized.

OlerudOwned May 28 2006 02:33 PM

Doesn't meet criteria well, sorry, but it's all I can find with Walker under a Met's cap.

Yancy Street Gang May 30 2006 09:21 AM

Thanks Olerud. I grabbed that Billy Wagner. I had previously seen (and considered) the Castro one, but I try to avoid full profiles when I can.
