Later served several seasons as a respected coach in the Mets' system before being named the big club's bullpen coach for 2012. He remained with the Mets organization after he left the coaching staff following the 2018 season, and then rejoined the Mets midway through 2019.  In all, he spent ten consecutive years with the Mets coaching staff.  His '94 Score card is pictured here.  Eight more cards are shown 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.
