I need to start this over soon cause I had a HD crash and lost my saved game. I was replaying the Mets history from the beginning, but I did one thing differently from you. I have one golden rule in playing my sim that I do not break. Any additions to my team have to be guys who at one time either played for, managed, or coached the Mets, whether in the majors or minors. The ONLY exception to this rule was when I "drafted" (i.e stole) Reggie Jackson, who the Mets passed up at #1 in the draft to take a catcher who never made it to the majors. I had somehow managed to trade Richie Ashburn, Bob "Righty" Miller and Hobie Landrith and cash to the Giants for Willie Mays who carried the Mets to an 8th place finish in 1962 with an average around .330 58HR and over 120RBI. I ended up winning my first pennant in 1966. First World Series in 1967 and after a second place finish in 68 (1 game in back of the Dodgers) had a dynasty winning the World Series every year from 1969-1976.
Fun times
