I wish I had a lot to say about today's Monday Memory, but I'm honestly not sure what to say. He had an 'okay' career (stats-wise) in his three years with New York. He had absolutely horrid numbers in the 1986 NLCS against those pesky Astros. He did, however, redeem himself in the World Series by putting Boston away in Game 7 with an exhilarating home run off of Calvin Schiraldi.

Wait a second, I know why I didn't have much to say about today's memory...

After the 1986 season, he signed on with an Orioles club that ended up finishing 6th in the AL East with a 67-95 record. Why? Because HoJo won the 3rd Base job, and the Orioles offered him about $50,000 more than the Mets offered him. Now, he's a co-host for Nats Xtra, the post-game show for the team that's currently dashing the hopes and dreams of the Mets and their fans! Oh yeah, and he didn't show up to last year's 1986 Celebration at Shea because of a "previous engagement". Was that really the reason? Were you annoyed because the Mets "snubbed" you by picking HoJo over you? You were the World Series MVP! At least stop by for a moment!

Boo Ray Knight! I was exhilarated for a split second when you knocked that ball our of Shea in Game 7. But that was it. When you decided not to show up to the 1986 celebration, no matter what the reason, I boo'd in your honor.

Next Monday: Le Grand Orange
