Jerry DiPoto

Gerard Peter DiPoto
Batted: Right
Threw: Right
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 200 lbs.
Born: May 24, 1968 in Jersey City, NJ
Drafted: 3rd round 1989 by the Cleveland Indians
Acquired: traded from the Indians with
Paul Byrd, Dave Mlicki, and a player to be named later (Jesus Azuaje) for Jeromy Burnitz and Joe Roa, November 1994
Departed: traded to the Colorado Rockies for
Armando Reynoso, November 1996

 

Jerry was that rarest of pitchers: one who could perform with a reasonable amount of success as a member of the Colorado Rockies.  He is perhaps more well-known these days as the general manager of the Angels, and later the Mariners. Jerry is pictured here on an autographed 1998 Upper Deck Collector's Choice card. A card from his Mets days is among those 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.  Contact me by following this link: NYMHall.
