So far this season, Tony Clark has four hits, and three of them are home runs. Get Tony the Tiger in the lineup!

I'll say this about Tony; he's a great addition to the Amazin's. However, for a 31 year-old fellow, he has the most gray hair I ever saw on any Mets player. If Barry Lyons was the ultimate bald headed Met, then Tony is the ultimate gray head. In fact, I sometimes refer to him as "The Distinguished Gentleman" because of it.

Anyway, I scored and attended Tony's dramatic three-run BOMB against the Marlins on 18 April. This 40 year-old crazy man was so happy over the event (I was jumping and high-fiving all over the place) that I missed the entire home run trot. But in Clark's case, watching the ball EXPLODE off his bat is a beautiful sight at any park.

Put him in the outfield, lets face it, he couldn't be any worse than Cedeno and even if his fielding is as bad, we can certainly use his bat in the lineup.

I'm really trying very hard to root for Tony. Why is it when the Mets put a guy like him in the everyday line-up his batting average drops faster than the altitude of a descending plane? He has to take more pitches. He is just going up there hacking and he is striking out too many times now. Get it together Tony!

Tony has been handed the first base job on a silver platter and while he was coming off the bench was great but now as a starter can't do squat. Hopefully it's just a slump (why should he be any different than any other starter?) and he'll be at least somewhat consistent. It would be nice if he could hit .260 if he could keep up the power. He had a nice double to deep center in Colorado last night so hopefully that will get things going.

No offense, fellow Met junkies--time to take a deep breath and exhale slowly!

We're talking about a guy who will be 31 in a month and has had over 3,500 major league plate appearances. Over those 3,500 times up he has a lifetime average of .270, while the league has batted .271. He has a lifetime on-base percentage of .347, while the league's is .341. That, in my mind, is an "average" player. Also, his run production has pretty much decreased every year since 1998.

Tony is a good guy to have around but he fits the Mets' profile very well--another utility guy/fourth outfielder/bench player. The Mets lead the league in that category!

This memory is very current, my wife and I spent vacation in Long Island to see college friends and attend our annual Mets game. Seeing that I live in Rhode Island it hard to plan this event. I admit I have given up this year but Tony Clark has been a bright spot in a very dark year. I watch this guy last year with the Sox and felt bad for him. But this year thank God we have him. We attend the July 1st game against Montreal and in the top of the eighth Benitez need only one out to get out of the inning gives up the a three run home run. But the bottom the the ninth the magic happen with McEwing pitch running Clark get a clutch hit down the first base line bring McEwing home and the win. I hope to God that Benitez brought Clark dinner that night.
