It looks like David is standing among the clouds on this 2001 Upper Deck card, and that is where the New York fans expected him to lead them. He made his major-league debut in July of 2004, and did nothing to diminish those expectations. His first full season in the big leagues saw him named the Mets Hitter of the Year as he produced one of the finest all-around seasons ever for a Mets batsman. Two years later he became a 30-30 man and broke the Mets' all-time record for total bases in a season as he picked up his second Hitter of the Year award. The calculation used for Hitter of the Year declared that David's 2007 bested any Met season to date—better than Strawberry or Olerud or Piazza or anybody else ever to wear the blue pinstripes. The imposing dimensions of a new stadium, coupled with a concussion and a broken back, all conspired to make him into something less than what he had been, but he remained the Mets' captain, the face of the franchise, signing a contract extension that nearly guaranteed he would remain a Met for life. There are more cards pictured beneath the stats box.
