Saturday Applesauce

Not much to report today. The Phillies took a 2-0 series lead over the Dodgers in the NLCS, which is depressing. Meanwhile, the Red Sox took a 1-0 lead over the Rays. You can follow all of SBNation's postseason coverage at our playoff hub:

I Wonder....

how Murphy is doing at secondbase? Progress reports on that would be more interesting— we know he can hit some! :-)

Who would know such information, and where would they share that? Would they share it with the public?

I was inspired by Eric's comment that Olerud had the best 3-year run as a Met outside Carlos Beltran to look at a few different Mets, and when I noticed that two of my all-time favorite players (Alfonzo and Strawberry) were kinda screwed by having (relatively)bad seasons in between some really good seasons, I decided to see which Mets had the best 3 seasons, period (non-consecutively). Beltran still comes out on top, but my all-time favorite player Alfonzo comes in 2nd place, and him and Straw are the only two to have three 6.0+ WAR seasons. Also interesting that Hundley comes out ahead of Gary Carter, Cleon Jones almost finishes ahead of Mike Piazza, and Joe McEwing doesn't make the list.
