The New York Mets Hall of Records: Nelson Figueroa

Nelson Figueroa

Nelson Figueroa
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 180 lbs.
Born: May 18, 1974 in Brooklyn, NY
Drafted: 30th round 1995 by the Mets
Acquired: as a free agent, February 2008
Departed: claimed on waivers by the Philadelphia Phillies, April 2010

Like Raul Casanova and Angel Pagan in the same season, Figgy had started out as a Mets farmhand, departed for a number of years, and was eventually welcomed back into the fold. A Brooklyn native who had been out of the big leagues for over three full seasons when he got the call from the Mets in early 2008, he became something of a fan favorite, which he parlayed into a broadcasting career after his playing days. He's shown here as a Mets prospect on 1997 Bowman, and on three other 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.
