Height: 6'3"

Born: April 19, 1984 in Nagua, DR

I didn't consider Ambiorix Burgos a sure thing to make the club following his trade from the Royals, but that 100-MPH fast ball spoke loudly. If only that were the end of the story, but alas! While sitting out the entire 2008 season rehabbing an injury, was arrested in New York for beating his girlfriend, arrested back in his homeland on weapons charges, and then ran down two women with his car, killing them both. Thus was Julio Machado's record for bad behavior by a Mets player obliterated. The card shown here is from more hopeful days, on 2005 Upper Deck Origins.
