Most here would know that Willie Randolph has 6 World Series rings, leading all Mets uniformed personnel. 1. How many other members of the Mets uniformed personnel have WS rings? 1a. How many for each? 2. Who (of the uniformed personnel) leads the team in AL/NL Championship rings? 2a. Who's second? 3. Who's got the most without a WS ring?

I'l' try #1. I haven't looked anything up. Glavine 1 ring El Duque 4 rings Schoenweis 1 ring Alou 1 ring HoJo 2 rings I'm sure there are some I'm missing.

4- Orlando Hernandez 1- Tom Glavine, Moises Alou, Scott Schoenweis, Howard Johnson (1B coach)

El Duque was NOT in the Bronx in '96 so does NOT have 4 WS rings. The one about pennant rings has to be a close duel between Willie (4 as a player + ? as coach) & Glavine (11)

D'oh, forgot about that one.

Eleven? Glavine should have one WS ring (from 1995) and four NL Championship rings: 1991, 1992, 1996, 1999.

Gwreck Apr 30 2007 02:58 PM

HahnSolo's answers were all correct (remember, HoJo has an '84 Tigers ring) but that's not an exhaustive list, and Glavine certainly doesn't have 11 (??) pennant rings.

Castro won one in 2003 with the Marlins. Sele was on the 2002 Angels. Green and Delgado both made the briefest of appearances with the 1993 Blue Jays...but I don't know if they actually got the hardware.

I was obviously thinking of division championships rather than league wins. I'm banned from this quiz for setting a record for dopey answers per minute.

I'm pretty sure that Delgado and Green got rings from the Jays. Sandy Alomar won a league championship in 1976 as a Yankee reserve and in 1984 as a Padres coach, I thinkie.

Can't players get rings even if they were not on the active postseason roster? Gwreck's question was who had rings, but I took it as "who was on the roster". That's why I ignored Green & Delgado. If Edgy's Alomar response is true, then he has to be the answer to #3.
