Franklin Francisco
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 250 lbs.
Born: September 11, 1979 in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
Signed: 1996 by the Boston Red Sox
Acquired: as a free agent, December 2011
Departed: as a free agent, October 2013

 

Signed to fill the closer's role for 2012 after spending his entire career to that point in the American League. Was one of that generation of Mets' most spectacular failures, as he mingled injuries with ineffectiveness throughout the duration of that contract.  He's pictured here on 2011 Topps Diamond Anniversary, and on another three cards 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.
