Anybody here seen my old friend Turk Wendell?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He had a unique necklace and he slammed that rosin
You know I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Todd?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He backed up Mike Piazza and he hit the big home run
I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Dennis?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He played with great emotion and his teammates called him Cookie
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the two postseasons?
Didn't they try to win it all for you and me?
We set them free
Some day soon, it's gonna start over
Anybody here seen my old friend Rick Reed?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him leavin' the blue and orange
Like Turk Wendell, Dennis and Todd
August 1, 2001: The Mets have been less than successful defending National League Champions. It was obvious that there was a need to get younger and less expensive, and thus they traded away some veterans who had a hand in their successes in 1999 and 2000. They are gone, but they will be remembered.
