Mike Bacsik
Michael Joseph Bacsik
Batted: Left
Threw: Left
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 190 lbs.
Born: October 11, 1977 in Dallas, TX
Drafted: 18th round 1996 by the Cleveland Indians
Acquired: traded from the Indians with Danny Peoples and Roberto Alomar
for Matt Lawton, Alex Escobar, Jerrod
Riggan, and two players to be named later (Earl Snyder and
Billy Traber), December 2001
Departed: as a free agent, October 2003
Mike came to the Mets in the same deal that
brought Roberto Alomar (with considerably less fanfare). He made his Met debut
in July 2002, making a start in place of disabled Steve Trachsel and earning a
victory. By 2004 he had disappeared from the big leagues entirely, and stayed
absent for two whole years. Came back in 2007 and was rewarded with the most
memorable moment in his career—for Mike, you will recall, is the man who gave
up Barry Bonds' all-time record-breaking home run. Shown here is his 1999 Just
minor league card, which he has autographed; three other cards appear below.

This is a list of the cards of this player
that I had in my Mets collection before I transferred the ownership of said
collection to another diligent and capable Mets fan. The cards that are listed
in light gray print and struck through are cards that were sold for charity
prior to my divestiture. The cards
listed in white text are the ones that still remained until that final
deal. Items listed in green I kept out
of the deal, just so I'd have something to display in my office and den. At the bottom and listed in orange text are
cards that I picked up after the dealing was done, in order to maintain a
certain continuity at this site; that is, so I'd have a card to show you at the
top of the page, and maybe in the autographs and game-used areas. If an orange card is struck through, it has
also departed the collection. I am still accepting donations, should
you feel so moved. Contact me by
