Two of the best Mets blogs, MetsBlog and Hotfoot, have recently been making all-time Mets lists. Great idea for hot stove! Much better than making lists of still-available free-agent pitchers with losing records and E.R.A.s above 4.50! Here’s my list for the best Mets seasons ever at each position. What do you think? Am I shortchanging anyone?
