If you took a look at the page for reliever
Carlos Diaz, you probably read that, of all pitchers who had worked at least 25
innings in Mets history, Diaz had the best career ERA. Know who had the second
best? Jack DiLauro, pictured here on 1970 Topps. (Third best career ERA for the
Mets? Tom Seaver.)
[Since the time this page was originally
composed, Billy Wagner has slipped ahead of Mr. DiLauro with his superb 2.37
ERA as a Met.]
[Several more years have passed, this being
2023 at the moment. I believe the lineup
of the top Mets ERAs with at least 25 innings now looks like this: 1) Aaron
Loup, 2) Carlos Diaz, 3) Billy Wagner, 4) Jack DiLauro, 5) Jacob deGrom, and 6)
Tom Seaver. Records, as they say, were
made to be broken.]

This
is a list of the cards of this player that I had in my Mets collection before I
transferred the ownership of said collection to another diligent and capable
Mets fan. The cards that are listed in light gray print and struck through are
cards that were sold for charity prior to my divestiture. The cards
listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final
deal. Items listed in green I kept out of the deal, just so I'd have
something to display in my office and den. At the bottom and listed
in orange text are cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order
to maintain a certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to
show you at the top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used
areas. If an orange card is struck through, it has also departed the
collection. I’m still accepting donations, should you feel so
moved. Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
