Welcome to Puppy Avenue 2013!

The Amazin' Avenue community's favorite dog-based Mets roster is back for the 2013 season.

A happy Opening Day to all of you and I'd like to take a moment to welcome you to the 2013 edition of Puppy Avenue! Before we get to the 2013 Puppy Avenue roster, let's take a look back and honor those dogs from last season who will not don the uniform of the Amazins in 2013. Some of them we'll miss, many of them we won't miss, but we do like to pay tribute to their efforts with the team.


And now, without further ado, here is the 2013 Puppy Avenue roster, pieced together by the Amazin' Avenue community!
