Although they have always been overshadowed by the Bronx Bombers, the Mets have possessed their fair share of baseball’s greatest, especially in recent time. The Mets offense struggled during most of the 1960s until it all of a sudden became clutch in 1969 when they won their first World Series. The offense was better, but still inconsistent during the 1970s. When the Mets won, they were hitting, but during the latter years in which they were a losing team, the hitting was not the same. In the 1980s, the Mets were consistently hitting well, probably their best offensive decade. The 1990s offense was weak, but kept getting stronger each year, but after the 2000 season, the offense was no longer a force until 2006-2008 when the Mets started contending for the playoffs again. As a result, all ten of the Mets’ greatest hitters are from the 1980s-present, and this is what it looks like.
