The Unthinkable/The Braves Series

On June 15, 1977 The Mets traded Tom Seaver to the Cincinnati Reds for 4 scrubs. The man that led the team to a World Championship in 1969 never received his due from the Mets and certainly was never paid what he was worth. He came back to Mets in 1983 to the joy of Mets fans and was left unprotected in the 1984 compensatory free agent draft and ended up with the Chicago White Sox. He won his 300th game with the Sox at Yankee Stadium. Lindsay Nelson was brought in to make the final call as Seaver retired the last batter. Seaver always wanted to be a Met, and will always be a Met. This man of baseball royalty should have never have been seen in another uniform. Now the Mets are building a statue in his honor at Citi Field with the address of the ballpark being renamed 41 Seaver Way. As far as I am concerned it's too little too late. The Braves have our number. They have built a great ball club, however they're not that good. I mean they never seem to get out of the first round of the playoffs. Why the hell can't we beat them. Go figure; we just lost 2 out of 3 to them AGAIN!
