Vince Coleman
Vincent Maurice "Vincent Van Go" Coleman
Batted: Both
Threw: Right
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 170 lbs.
Born: September 22, 1961 in Jacksonville, FL
Drafted: 10th round 1982 by the St. Louis Cardinals
Acquired: as a free agent, December 1990
Departed: traded to the Kansas City Royals with cash for Kevin McReynolds, January 1994
Vince started out with three straight seasons of 100+ stolen bases; he is the only one in history to have achieved that feat. The Mets brought him to New York to try and fill Darryl Strawberry's shoes in 1991; boy, was that ever the wrong idea. He did lead the Mets in steals each of the three seasons he spent in New York, without ever playing in as many as 100 games. He's pictured here from the excellent art-card set called Scoremasters, produced by Score. Eight more cards are pictured below.
