Farewell, Dave Roberts

(originally posted 1/10/09 on Preaching to the Choir)

1981 Mets pitcher Dave Roberts has died. The full story can be found here.
Dave had some seasons where he knew considerable success--not with the Mets, unfortunately. He finished his career with the '81 club, losing three games without winning, and posting a 9.39 ERA.

Even though he was not a significant contributor to the Mets, Dave still was an honored member of the orange-and-blue fraternity, and his passing is solemnly noted here.
