Sid Fernandez has some of the best numbers of any pitcher in New York Mets history. Why don’t we talk about him more?
Sid Fernandez spent ten seasons as a member of the New York Mets. In that time, he managed to earn his way to a pair of All-Star Games and win 98 games. The win total is the fifth most in franchise history with notable Mets like Al Leiter, Jon Matlack, and David Cone behind him.
