Little Sarge, we hardly knew ye! Gary, a superb glove man with developing batting skills that the Mets bought from Pittsburgh in December 2001, only spent two games in New York before being traded to Baltimore for minor-league reliever John Bale. The card shown here is from the 2000 Upper Deck Ionix Reciprocal parallel set.
