The Mets’ clubhouse is a pretty fun place these days, what with the team marching toward its first National League East division title since 2006. In a couple of weeks, the team will (most likely) be introducing itself to a national audience, so the moment is ripe for getting to know the guys on the field.

Beyond their athletic abilities, professional ballplayers are some of the quirkiest people you could ever meet. (That’s what happens when you spend your adolescence thinking about little else besides hitting a ball with a wooden stick.) Put 25 of them—or in the Mets’ case this September, 38—in a room for more than half the year, and it doesn’t take long for those idiosyncrasies to bubble up.
