Roberto was a tremendous minor-league hitter; many feel that he didn't get enough of a chance to show what he could do at the major-league level. He ended up playing and starring in Japan, winning a couple of home run titles. Check out those jaw-dropping Japanese statistics below; in seven years there, he posted a .438 OBP and a .613 slugging percentage.  Roberto is pictured here as the league MVP on 2002 BBM, and on several more cards from both sides of the ocean 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’m still accepting donations, should you feel so moved.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
