Ugly delivery brought ugly results.

It's hard to believe that any Met fan would have something nice to say about Gene Walter. If he weren't part of the McReynolds trade, who would remember him? It's also hard to believe the Mets actually asked for his services in 88 after seeing him pitch in the pitching deficient 87 campaign. They should have renamed this guy Gene Zero since that's what he added to the team.

I remember being at a game in '87 and the Mets bring Walter in, the game already being a lost cause. Even though I was in the mezzanine section, some drunk guy in front of me absolutely flipped out when he saw Walter trotting in from the bullpen. The guy started screaming that he was gonna beat Walter up in the parking lot. I was 9 at the time, and it is one Mets game I have never forgotten.

I will never forget his last game as a Met. He came in to get an out with runners on second and third and proceeded to throw so wildly that Gary Carter had to make three outstanding stops just to keep from having a wild pitch. After three of these pithches the Mets decided to intentionally walk the batter. Gary Carter stood up and and put his arm out to signal the pass. Wouldn't you know that Walter threw a perfect strike that Carter had to make another fine stop of. The umpire mercifily called it a ball and the batter took first. The manager then came out and removed Walter from the game. The next day he was sent to triple A and later traded. I never cared for this player and how he got to the bigs is beyond me.

I'm astounded that Gene Walter's ERA as a Met was under 4.00. I'd like to see his stats on inherited runners allowed to score. Deeply mediocre, not quite terrible -- but inspired no confidence whatsoever. I remember he would come to the set position hunched over as if he had a stomachache.
