Jack Fisher, nicknamed "Fat Jack" was picked up from the Giants on October 10th 1963. From 1963 through 1966 Fisher proved to be a solid innings eater in the Mets rotation, almost never missing a start. Despite a 4.12 ERA during that span, Fisher lead the NL in earned runs three of those four years, and losses two of the four years. He combined for a 38 and 73 record. In December of 1967, Jack was dealt along with Billy Wynne, Tommy Davis and Buddy Booker for the great Tommie Agee and Al Weis.
This blog was created to accept the challenge of collecting a signed baseball from every Mets pitcher to ever toe the rubber in a Mets uniform.
