David Robertson

David Alan "Houdini" Robertson
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 195 lbs.
Born: April 9, 1985 in Birmingham, AL
Drafted: 17th round 2006 by the New York Yankees
Acquired: as a free agent, December 2022
Departed: traded to the Miami Marlins for Marco Vargas and Ronald Hernandez, July 2023

 

Until the Mets signed David in December of '22, I had not realized just how impressive his pitching career had been, having maintained a healthy disdain about paying too much attention to anything happening in the Bronx.  Just look at the stats below to see for yourself.  The best reliever on the 2023 staff, the Mets waved the white flag on that disastrous season when they traded him to the Marlins at the end of July.  David is shown here on his 2018 Topps Heritage card; a few more 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.
