Ok boys and girls, it is time once again for yet another edition of Mets players separated at birth. This is where I try to take current members of the Mets roster and try to find their doppelgangers.
Well here goes nothing
First off is current Mets pitching coach, Dan Warthern
And Oscar winning actor George C. Scott
Next up is the Mets current set up man, Jon Rauch
And Professional wrestler Kane
Next up is Mets first baseman, Ike Davis
and D.C Comics superhero Hawkman
Reserve catcher, Mike Nickeas
and magician, David Copperfield
Mets Loogy, Tim Byrdak
and the New York Lottery Guy !
And last – but not least – my favorite, Mets Pitcher Dillon Gee
and a Amish man
Any other sugestions ?
And with that said… HERE COMES THE INFAMY !!!!
Mets alumni celebrating a birthday today includes:
Mets bench coach from the ’62 and ’63 seasons, Solly Hemus is 89 (1923).
One time Astro great and Mets hitting instructor from the ’03-’04 season, Denny Walling is 58(1954) .
Reserve player from the ’01 season, Gary Bennett is 40 (1972). He logged just one at bat(a hit) with the Mets before fading into obscurity.
Mo Vaughn thinks he is a dead ringer for Denzel Washington - I just dont see it !!!

Brydak….the dollar and a dream guy.
Hey, I’ve got the dollar and the dream. Maybe when all is said and done this year, we’ll win the baseball lottery.

Byrdak looks a little like Al Leiter.
Unless I am just nuts.

I love the Warthen/George C Scott! I never realized the resemblance before. And of course, Ike and Hawkman.

Then does Warthen look like General George Smith Patton, Jr.?

Love the Tim Byrdak one. Probably the closest.

Someone on Twitter noticed the resemblance between Duda and Zachary Ty Bryan from Home Improvment:

I think I would’ve matched Gee up with a billy goat instead of Weird Al.
