OPEN THREAD - Most Loved and Most Reviled: 1B



Reese Kaplan came up with a great idea for a series here.

Who was your all-time favorite at a position and who was your most reviled.

This isn't as easy as you think it is.

First up... the home of Keith, Gil, and the Polar Bear...

My vote is simple.

Most loved - Gil Hodges

Most reviled - the failed prospect Butch Huskey

I go with Alonso thru Door # 1

Reviled? Mo Vaughn, another Mets old guy pipe dream.

Most revered is usually a toss-up between Keith and Olerud but the latter is my choice for the best Mets 1st baseman ever.

Most reviled...well, there are lots of choices here. Todd Zeile, Willie Montanez and Diego Segui come to mind. Still, I think Tom nailed it with Big Mo.
