Richard Lovelady

Richard Tyler “Dicky” Lovelady
Bats: Left
Throws: Left
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 185 lbs.
Born: July 7, 1995 in Hinesville, GA
Drafted: 10th round 2016 by the Kansas City Royals
Acquired: as a free agent, June 2025

   

Brought in to help out with the pitching from the left-hand side, June 2025.  Didn’t help as much as he had hoped, and was DFA’d the day after his Mets debut, then was almost immediately re-signed to another contract and came back to the bullpen again.  All, apparently, was forgiven.  Dicky is shown here on 2019 Topps Heritage.

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.
