2016 Numerical Roster (Bulldog Edition)

Normally by this time of the year the Mets have published an updated roster at their official site but as alertly pointed out by Jetropolitans in the comments section below, some outlets have gone live with updated rosters. These places (CBS Sports and ESPN) typically wouldn’t use “original” reporting for this, so it was likely passed along to them, and their rosters align. I suppose the interns they have working over at Mets.com just haven’t gotten to it yet. Meantime I’m checking with sources.

Assuming what they are reporting is accurate, here’s how it looks this morning. Note the CBS and ESPN rosters do not include figures for the coaching and field staff, but it would appear some would be on the move as a result of player changes: Plawecki from 22 to 26 (unseating Tom Goodwin) and Bastardo at 59 (Dan Warthen). There are still a pile of NRIs to assign.

    My favorite time of year!

    It would be cool if Cheech got 22. Lets go Mets!

    If you search some of the NRIs manually on CBS or ESPN, you can see their numbers too (all but Raywilly Gomez and Roger Bernadina). That, plus assuming that most of the coaches retained their old numbers, fills in a lot of the gaps:

    19 Johnny Monell
    44 Buddy Carlyle
    51 Jim Henderson
    53 Dave Racaniello (Bullpen Catcher)
    54 Stolmy Pimentel
    55 Ty Kelly
    60 Duane Below
    61 Marc Krauss
    70 Nevin Ashley
    71 Xorge Carrillo
    72 Gavin Cecchini
    73 Travis Taijeron
    74 Dominic Smith
    75 T.J. Rivera
    76 Chase Bradford
    78 Eric Langill (Bullpen Catcher)
    79 Paul Sewald
    80 Zach Thornton
    81 Danny Muno

    By my count, this leaves Gomez, Bernadina, and coaches Tom Goodwin, Dan Warthen, and Dick Scott numberless. 0, 1, 9, 22, 23, 28, 38, 46, and 82-99 are still available (excluding semi-retired numbers).
