Raul Mondesi was an absolute stud for the Dodgers. He could do everything. He could hit for power, run like the wind, and play the field like a modern day Roberto Clemente. That might be a bit of an overstatement... anyway, I loved the guy in Dodger Blue. Heck, I loved hearing the screams from fans whenever he came up to the plate... "Raaauuuuuuuullll!"
As a side note, since leaving the Major Leagues Raul has built a career in politics in his native home. Currently, he is the mayor of San Cristóbal Province in the Dominican Republic.
Featured above and below is a 1996 Donruss Signatures bronze autographed card of Raul Mondesi from my collection.
