Kris Benson
Kristin James Benson
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'4"
Weight: 195 lbs.
Born: November 7, 1974 in Superior, WI
Drafted: 1st round 1996 by the Pittsburgh Pirates
Acquired: traded from the Pirates with Jeff Keppinger for Jose
Bautista, Ty Wigginton, and Matt Peterson, July
2004
Departed: traded to the Baltimore Orioles for Jorge Julio and John
Maine, January 2006
A former first-round draft pick with the
Pirates, Kris joined the Mets at the trading deadline for the 2004 season. His
abrupt departure before the 2006 season was not entirely attributable to his
talents or the Mets' desire to have him in their rotation; enough said. His
2002 Fleer Tradition card is pictured here, and there are many more cards
pictured 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
following this link: NYMHall.
