As you get to know the New York Mets team, you will get to know some of the more infamous players for the New York Mets. With infamous years like Roger Craig and the New York Mets, and other years of poor performance, there is no wonder that there are so many bad jokes about the New York Mets.

Craig was often best known as being a New York Met. He was part of the bad team’s pitchers, and lost 24 games one season and 22 the next. In 1963 he had an 18-game losing streak. However, he did complete 27 games, making him one of the best pitchers on the staff. His battles with Maury Wills, a top base-stealer, became a highlight of many of the Mets games.

However, there is no reason to discard your New York Mets wallpaper just yet. As any other team with a losing record, the Mets approach the new season with optimism and hope. The slogan for the 2007 season is “The 2007 Mets – Your Season Has Come.” They lived up to it with the best winning percentage on Opening Day for the whole National League. May continued with success, though June slumped, and fans are still waiting to see if 2007 will really be their year or not. The June series of games made them the first team to play six consecutive series against six teams that had been in the playoffs the year before.
