Larry Smith Finds A New Least Favorite Mets Player


In the pantheon of Mets history there has often been one player (sometimes two) on the team that the fans just detest.

I needn't recite all the names but just think back over the years about how we all felt about Vince Coleman, Mel Rojas, Bobby Bonilla, and this writer's all-time least favorite Met, Rey Rey Ordonez.

In recent years the clear winners(?) in the category of most detested Met were Oliver Perez and Luis Castillo.
About them it was said that some Mets fans hated these two like poison while the rest of us just hated them regular.

And when those two were finally and mercifully shown the door it left behind a void.

Who could jump in and be so pathetic that just the thought of having him in the field or at bat could churn the bile right up to the back of your throat?

If you have watched the team the past few weeks you'll know that there is a player who strikes out even more frequently than David Wright and who has handled the outfield corners with about the same level of incompetence as Todd Hundley and Daniel Murphy have in past years.

The torch has been passed my friends to Scott Hairston.

Welcome to the Wall Of Shame, Scott Hairston. Let's hope your reign is brief.
