This comes from the hearts... Wags.

Well, I have two favorite BP MOMENTS:
(1) The McDowell/Orosco RP-RF shuffle (same game in which Ray Knight cold-konked Eric Davis?)
(2) Larry Bearnarth uncorks a hellacious change-up & Jim Ray Hart screws himself into the ground. Bob Murphy remarks that he could have swung a second time.

But my favorite guy was Tug.

Wagner. He should be in HOF.

Homie, Tug was my # 2.

After this year, # 3 will be Sugar.

Billy Wagner. My last name is Wagner, so I bought the authentic jersey when they signed him. It will never be out of style for me. :)

Also would mention Skip Lockwood (a reliable arm in the late 1970s), and Armando Benitez (I know there's a lot of hate there for the 2000 WS, but he was lights out for most of the regular seasons he was a Met).

For a short but SOLID career as a Met, let's not forget Bob Apodaca.
