Steve was the best position player that the
Mets got in exchange for Tom Seaver in 1977, but it's not as if anything could
have been enough! Steve had a fairly good big-league career, though. In his
first taste of big-league action, he led the Mets in home runs and runs batted
in, while appearing in less than 100 games! Unfortunately, despite several more
seasons as a regular player, he never surpassed those figures. He's pictured
here on his 1981 Kellogg's card, and a couple more oddball cards are 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.
