Early in his career, Roberto was an elite closer for most of a decade with the White Sox. By the time he came to the Mets in 2005, though, he was 40 years old and hadn't posted a sub-4.00 ERA since five years previously with Tampa Bay. He answered the fans' skepticism by having a terrific year and becoming something of a favorite. Pictured here is an autographed 1992 Bowman card. Below are cards showing Roberto with most of the teams for whom he pitched.

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.
