Yolmer Sanchez Memory Challenge

Post by Edgy MD » Wed Jan 25, 2023 11:03 am

Yolmer Sanchez was a 2023 New York Met. You may not believe that and I may not believe that, but the digital records on the Web of World Widiness say otherwise.

Yesterday, Yolmer signed a minor league contract to be part of the Braves organization. Today, three contestants in our studio, members of our studio audience, and you playing along at home will be competing for BIG PRIZES as we try to reassemble Yolmer's Met legacy from memory as we play ... YOLMER! SANCHEZ! MEMORY! CHALLENGE!!

He was number six with Syracuse, but his brief tenure with the big club saw him outfitted in the infrequently assigned 43. Six belonged to Starling Marte this season.

Hey, look! The guy won a Gold Glove playing second for the White Sox in 2019! No wonder he got called up when Guillorme was hurt (I think)!

I seem to recall he might have had a base hit. A single most likely?

Or maybe he was one of those guys who just played in the field and never even had a plate appearance?

Defensive replacement for Baty as the Mets successfully defended (if barely) their wacky 10-9 win in Philly. It was Sanchez’s Mets 3B debut, always an occasion for notation.
Hope for the best. Expect the Mets.

Sanchez was a 2022 Met, not a 2023 Met.

I remember thinking the Mets were having some troubles when they started putting guys like him on the field.

I either don't remember him or simply keep conflating him with all the other Yolmers we've had over the years.

Your ability to use AI to create entirely fictional Mets keeps improving. I swear that I could remember watching him play here in the Cuse until I realized that you obviously made him up.
