Born: December 4, 1985 in Santiago, DR

Faster than Jose Reyes, so they said! He doubled in his first big-league at-bat and later stole a base in the same game. The following winter was one of the key pieces in the Johan Santana deal. Carlos very nearly became a Met again at the 2015 trade deadline; a deal was in place to get him from the Brewers for Zack Wheeler and Wilmer Flores, but the Mets backed out due to concerns about the health of his hip and instead traded for Yoenis Cespedes—a move that turned out to be providential for the eventual NL Champions.  Carlos eventually did work his way back to New York four years later when his career was winding down in earnest.  Pictured is his card from the 2006 Binghamton Mets minor-league set.  Cards from his stellar years with the Brewers are shown below, among others.

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.
