Great thread to the OP.I am a big Mets fan and collect mostly 1986 Mets as well as current stars and Shea Stadium memorabilia.I hope to show some of it off here.I will start with a 1986 Mets custom set I made with the help of a great graphic designer from this site.I could not find a nice complete set of players from any set of the team,18 of them to be exact.I have plenty of different player autos but nothing that could be put together like this.I used certified autographs from different card companies.Many were damaged or dull looking design wise.I know cutting up cards is frowned upon around here,but for my purpose they serve a better good.

Those custom cards are awesome, I love how you have Buckner in there...lol nice touch

Thanks for the praise about starting the thread. I hope when things turn around for the team, more will contribute to the thread.

Lol,thanks.Yeah Bill had to be included.Until things pick up,or when Harvey's not pitching,we can remember our Amazin's back in the day.
Thank you.I have been collecting for a while now.I remember when you would be lucky to find Gooden and Strawberry on a certified auto in a Mets uni.Now almost everyone is available

 

[MrMet]

If any of you guys are bobble head fans, find the thread called "my bobble head starting lineup" the op posted his, and I posted mine back, consisting of all Mets bobble heads!

 

[MrMet]

And we just brought in Dice-K on a major league deal. I guess they need a spot filler with Hefner and Mejia going down

With Syndergaard & Montero on innings limits no use brining them up now....Cant hurt taking a chance with 6 weeks left...prorated mlb minimum deal most likely

Nicolino, Lawley take top FSL honors
Marlins, Mets farmhands named Pitcher, Player of the Year
By Sam Dykstra / MiLB.com
08/22/2013 2:51 PM ET

When the season began, expectations were high for Justin Nicolino's introduction to the Florida State League with Class A Advanced Jupiter. The same can't necessarily be said for Dustin Lawley in St. Lucie. Now with the season mostly behind them, both are taking home some well-earned hardware.
[h=2]Related Content[/h]

The Florida State League named Lawley its Player of the Year on Wednesday while Nicolino received Pitcher of the Year honors. Both were also placed on the circuit's postseason All-Star squad, which includes big-time prospects Javier Baez (Daytona) and Gary Sanchez (Tampa).
Nicolino -- Miami's No. 4 prospect -- went 5-2 with a 2.23 ERA, a 1.11 WHIP and 64 strikeouts in 18 starts (96 2/3 innings) for the Hammerheads this season. His ERA would have been lowest and his WHIP second-lowest in the FSL had he enough innings to qualify. The 21-year-old left-hander's chance to hit that mark was taken away when he was promoted to Double-A Jacksonville in late July.

Lawley, meanwhile, has been the best power hitter in a circuit that notoriously favors those on the mound. His 25 homers lead all sluggers and put him seven ahead of his closest competition -- a three-way race for second between K.C. Hobson (Dunedin), Nick Ramirez (Brevard County) and Kennys Vargas (Fort Myers), each with 18.
The 24-year-old left-fielder, whose previous career high was just 14 homers last year for Class A Savannah, also ranks first with 90 RBIs, second with a .514 slugging percentage, tied for third with 31 doubles and sixth with an .826 OPS. He spotted a .257/.311/.514 line over 117 games with the Mets.
Fort Myers first-year skipper Doug Mientkiewicz was named Manager of the Year after leading Fort Myers to a South Division first-half title and the circuit's best overall record at 71-52, as of Wednesday.

Sanchez -- the Yankees' top prospect -- was one of two catchers named to the postseason All-Star team after accruing a .254/.313/.420 line with 13 homers and 61 RBIs in 94 games for Tampa before his call-up to Double-A Trenton. Cubs top prospectBaez, who is now with Double-A Tennessee, was the lone shortstop honored after putting up .274/.338/.535/17/57 numbers in 76 games for Daytona.
Jupiter's Brent Keys claimed the center field spot, thanks to his FSL-leading .351 average and no one within 30 points of that number. Hammerheads closer Nick Wittgren (23 saves, 0.86 ERA) was paired with Palm Beach's Ronnie Shaban (16, 1.76) as the circuit's best closers.
In all, Jupiter, St. Lucie and Fort Myers each led the way with three representatives apiece on this year's All-Star team.
Here is a complete list of selections:
