Brandon Lyon

Brandon James Lyon
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 200 lbs.
Born: August 10, 1979 in Salt Lake City, UT
Drafted: 14th round 1999 by the Toronto Blue Jays
Acquired: as a free agent, February 2013
Departed: released, July 2013

 

Brandon was drafted and signed by the Blue Jays and debuted with them as well. A decade later, after bouncing around among several different stops--and sometimes excelling--made a 30-game encore with the team that drafted him. Then he became a Met. Actually pitched very well with NY at the beginning, but a series of disastrous appearances in late June/early July spelled his doom. Shown here with the Jays on 2013 Topps. Three more pretty cards appear 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.
