Just received my copy of @ArtShamsky’s new book. Anxious to read it. I’m sure it will be terrific. They say never judge a book by its cover, but based on the fact that Art is wearing the most perfect baseball uniform ever created it’s already a winner. Enjoy. pic.twitter.com/bf8VTo1O3d

1982 | The Mets agree to a $10 million, five-year deal with George Foster, completing the trade with the Reds, which sent Jim Kern, Greg Harris, and Alex Trevino to Cincinnati. During his four-and-half-year tenure with the team, the All-Star outfielder proves to be a major disappointment and will be released outright during the 1986 season after accusing the club of racism for benching him in favor of Kevin Mitchell, a fellow African-American. |
1984 | After five months of discussion, the Mets and Keith Hernandez, who was eligible for free agency at the end of the season, come to terms on an $8 million, five-year contract. The deal makes the first baseman the second highest-paid player in franchise history, earning slightly less than George Foster's five-year, $10 million pact signed precisely two years ago. |
