Note: Reyes, Feliciano and Heilman are Vets
Since Tom Glavine is no longer on the Mets, Jose Reyes is now the longest tenured player on the Mets, followed by Aaron Heilman, both of whom made their debut in early 2003.
…thanks to DJ Short for pointing this out to me…
Pedro Feliciano made his major-league debut with the Mets in 2002, meaning he debuted before Reyes. However, Feliciano spent all of 2005 playing for the Softbank Hawks of the Japanese Pacific League, before re-signing with the Mets.
On June 10, 2003, Reyes made his major-league debut with the Mets, during an inter-league game in Texas, batting ninth in a lineup that included Roger Cedeno, Timo Perez, Roberto Alomar, Cliff Floyd, Jeromy Burnitz, Ty Wigginton, Jason Phillips and Vance Wilson with Steve Trachsel on the mound.
