The 1969 Mets have representation in the Hall of Fame. But is it enough?

Well, their most valuable player, Tom Seaver, has a plaque there. That’s a pretty good start.

Nolan Ryan, a swingman who pitched in 25 games and two more in the postseason, is honored, although it’s really for what he did after leaving the Mets in the franchise’s worst trade.

And Yogi Berra, a coach on that club, occupies a place there for what he did before joining the Mets.
