Pitched for the Brewers in the late '80s
without much success, but did very well for Tidewater at the AAA level later.
Came up to the Mets in 1995 and pitched extremely well; instead of sending him
back to the minor leagues, though, the Mets sent him to Japan, where he
finished up his career. Pictured here is the non-autographed version of his
card from the 1996 Signature Rookies Old Judge subset; the signed version can
be found elsewhere at this site. More
cards below the stats.

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
following this link: NYMHall.
