Anyway, I live in Chicago but lived in Manhattan for 15 years, so I can give him a lot of grief about them.

Anyway.....his father just died, and I know he's going through a rough time. Instead of just getting him flowers or a gift basket or something that won't mean much, I asked him who his dad's favorite Mets/Giants were, and I got back Willie Mays, Seaver, Rusty Staub and Jerry Grote.

So, I ask, Mets and Blowout experts -- various price points (I imagine Staub to Mays)-- what card/cards or memorabilia would you get him that may remind him of his dad and good memories with him when he looks at it?


PS -- this could also come from a group of us, so various price points are ok.
You can't go wrong with a vintage Seaver card from a pennant winning season 69 or 73....

The Mets have the same chance!!!!

They also start the inning with a runner on 2nd base

I'll take responsibility for yesterday's L, I only watched the 1st inning, the 9th and the top of the 10th...

So obviously I can not watch any of these games anymore, ha ha ha...

Yikes.

All I’m gonna say is I feel like when all our bats are healthy they do 10x worse then when half the lineup is hurt. Makes no sense.

Also we might need to DH McNeil cause he looks awful in the field.
