Dicky Gonzalez
Dicky Gonzalez
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 170 lbs.
Born: October 21, 1978 in Bayamon, Puerto Rico
Drafted: 16th round 1996 by the Mets
Departed: traded to the Montreal Expos with Bruce Chen, Luis Figueroa, and a
player to be named later (Saul Rivera) for Scott Strickland,
Phil Seibel, and Matt Watson
While Al Leiter was on the disabled list in
early 2001, Dicky was called up to fill his place in the rotation. Later he
went on to pitch most of a decade in Japan, including a brilliant 15-2, 2.11
ERA season in 2009. The card pictured
here is the Black Chrome Refractor from the 2002 Topps Rookie and Traded set;
only 100 of these were produced. Below
the stats is a card declaring him as Japan's "Pitcher of the Year"
following his astonishing 2009 campaign.

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’m still
accepting donations, should you feel so moved. Contact me by
following this link: NYMHall.
