Brian Buchanan

Brian James Buchanan
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 230 lbs.
Born: July 21, 1973 in Miami, FL
Drafted: 1st round 1994 by the New York Yankees
Acquired: as a free agent, August 2004
Departed: as a free agent, October 2004

 

A former first-round draft pick by the Yankees, Brian was signed as a free agent in August 2004 after refusing a minor-league assignment from the Padres. It was hoped that he would provide some stability to the Mets' injury-depleted lineup, but he only accounted for four plate appearances with the New Yorkers. Shown here is Brian's card from 2001 Topps Heritage.  Another card appears below the stats box.

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.
