2009 New York Mets
Ryan Church is healthy again and that means good things for the Mets' 2009 chances. Luis Castilla hit .245 last season and will need to improve upon that mark in 2009. The Mets outfield is solid, with Daniel Murphy in left, Carlos Beltran in center and Ryan Church in right field.
The starting rotation is locked-in at four spots, with the fifth open for competition among Freddy Garcia, Tim Redding and Jon Niese. The four probably starters are:
Johan Santana
John Maine
Oliver Perez
Mike Pelfrey
Mets Hall of Famers
Elected at least partly based on performance with the Mets
Gary Carter (great Hair!), catcher, 1985-1989
Carter asked that his Hall of Fame plaque either be depicted as split between the Mets and Montreal Expos, or just as a Met. The Hall of Fame denied both of Carter's requests and he was inducted as an Expo. He should have worn Mets footie pajamas to the induction ceremony.
Tom Seaver, pitcher, 1967-1977, 1983 (only player with a Mets hat on Hall of Fame plaque)
Other Hall-of-Famers associated with the Mets
Richie Ashburn, outfielder, 1962
