John Milner...This guy looked like a terror when he came up but how many people really remember who he was.
Dave Henderson...Same as above only he was the gem in the Tom Seaver trade....he had the look, the stroke, and the hype...but lasted only a couple of years with the Mets.
Amos Otis....Loved him but the Mets had other ideas for him
John Stearns....What an animal of a player...heart & soul
Eddie Foy....never given a full time chance but the guy hit the cover off the ball
While your at it, might as well remember the miracle 69' Mets. With the exception of Jones, Agee, and Clendennon, what a bunch of mediocre guys who were always exciting to watch. Thank goodness for Seaver, Koosman , Gentry, Ryan, and Caldwell.
