Baseball fans probably know of Whitey Herzog’s reputation as a Hall of Fame manager. But what’s probably not so widely known is how instrumental he was in building the 1969 World Championship Mets. RIP Whitey, his Mets family is sadden by his passing. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/rip-whitey-her…

1964 Mets Ron Hunt and Jack Fisher will join me pre-game April 17 to participate in the first ever Silver Sluggers event at Citi Field. 60 years ago on that date Jack started the first game at Shea against the Pirates.

Straw told me there was no way he wasn’t going to be at Citi Field yesterday to see Doc’s No. 16 get retired. Straw made it through many obstacles including his health to be there yesterday. They have a special bond. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/darryl-surpris…

Dr. J wishes Dr. K nothing but good luck today at Citi Field.

If you weren’t there in the 1980’s, it’s hard to describe what a Dwight Gooden start was like at Shea. It wasn’t a game. It was an event. It was a happening. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/retiring-numbe…

Butch Huskey knew as a high school junior that if he ever made it to the majors he would wear 42 to honor the great Jackie Robinson. His dream came true and was one of the last Mets to wear Jackie’s historical number.

It seems that every time my phone rings now the message is that one of our Mets alumni family has passed away. First it was 1969 Met Jim McAndrew, then Pat Zachry and yesterday, I got a call from Cheryl Grote saying that her husband Jerry had died. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/trio-of-mets-p…

A week before we retire his Number 16, I wanted to reflect back on Dwight Gooden's first major league start, 40 years ago today in the Astrodome. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/40th-anniversa…

Pat Zachry passed away last night at the age of 71 in Waco, Texas, after a lengthy illness. I connected with Doug Flynn today and he shared some thoughts on his teammate and friend. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/rest-in-peace-…

On what would have been his 100th birthday, I wanted to share a gift from Irene Hodges, Gil’s daughter. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/hodges-at-a-hu…

What an anniversary for Jack Fisher. Sixty years ago to the day when he started in the Shea opener against Pittsburgh, he will be back on the mound on April 17 to toss a ceremonial first pitch against the Pirates.

Those coming to honor Dwight Gooden on his Number Retirement Ceremony on Sunday, April 14 will certainly come from a broad spectrum of the entertainment industry. See who will be at Citi Field. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/stars-coming-o…

Tomorrow I will continue my #OpeningDay tradition of enjoying a hot dog, soda and ice cream in the press box. Can't believe this is number 45 for me with the New York Mets. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/opening-day-no…

Friday marks the sixth anniversary of my friend Rusty Staub passing. Even though he is gone, Le Grande Orange is still giving back. A non-profit founded by Rusty in 1985 has stepped up to support the family of slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller. metsinsider.mlblogs.com/rusty-staub-st…

The honors couldn’t be more deserved. We will be wearing a patch on our uniform all year long for Buddy Harrelson and six of his grandkids will be throwing out first pitch on Thursday.
