Steven John Wendell

Rojas for Lance Johnson
and two players to be named later (Mark Clark and Manny

Mets fans were routinely thrilled for 3½
years by Turk slamming the rosin bag down behind the mound, fanning a flailing
opponent, and then skipping across the baseline on his way back to the dugout.
Pictured in full bear-claw and antler-tip regalia here on his 1999 Fleer
Tradition card. Several more cards are shown 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.
