Mike Vaccaro NY Post: Mets should do whatever it takes to keep Brandon Nimmo. "At 29, Nimmo proved in 2022 that not only is he a plus-center fielder/leadoff man — his 5.0 WAR was higher than, among others, Pete Alonso, Starling Marte and Edwin Diaz — but that he can stay upright for a whole season. His 151 games played was a career high, and only the second time he’s played as many as 100."

Transactions:

New York Mets traded Ray Sadecki and Tommy Moore to the St. Louis Cardinals for Joe Torre on October 13, 1974.

National Pastime.com:

1983

"I would like to thank Frank Cashen for being smart enough to hire me." DAVEY JOHNSON, speaking to the press about the Mets GM's decision to name him as the team’s manger.

Davey Johnson, the Mets’ Triple-A Tidewater pilot, inks a two-year deal to become the 11th manager in franchise history, replacing Frank Howard who is promptly hired as the team’s first base-coach. The 40 year-old Floridian will compile a 595-417 (.588) record during his six-plus seasons in the dugout which includes capturing a World Championship in 1986.

Baseball Reference:

1973 - The Mets hold Oakland to four hits in the World Series opener, but three of those hits come in the two-run 3rd inning as Oakland wins, 2 - 1.

1999The Atlanta Braves take a two-game lead over the Mets in the NLCS with a 4 - 3 victory. The Braves score all four of their runs in the 6th inning on a pair of home runs by Brian Jordan and Eddie Perez off Mets starter Kenny RogersKevin Millwood gets the win for Atlanta, with John Smoltz making his first relief appearance ever to get the save.

2015: Clayton Kershaw ends a five-game postseason losing streak when the Dodgers defeat the Mets, 3 - 1, in Game 4 of the other NLDSJustin Turner hits a two-run double against his former team for the key blow.
