Raul Gonzalez

Victor Raul Gonzalez
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 190 lbs.
Born: December 27, 1973 in Santurce, PR
Drafted: 17th round 1990 by the Kansas City Royals
Acquired: sent from the Cincinnati Reds to complete an earlier deal, August 2002; the Reds had traded Pedro Feliciano, Elvin Andujar, and two players to be named later (Gonzalez and Brady Clark) for Shawn Estes and cash
Departed: released, May 2004

The Mets obtained this minor-league All-Star outfielder from the Cincinnati Reds for Shawn Estes in late 2002. In fact, Raul was named MVP of the International League shortly after he debuted with New York! He's shown here on his 2000 Fleer Tradition Update card, and on a card picturing him with the Mets below.
