- Dec 7 - The Mets traded for shortstop Tim Foli. Foli was acquired to replace Bud as the Mets' starting shortstop. A few weeks later Bud was quoted as saying that he would like to stay with the Mets, even in a reserve role. Harrelson later changed his mind and asked to be traded in early March of 1978. The Mets honored his request and Harrelson was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies in late March.
