Mario Ramriez was a utility infielder with the Mets and the San Diego Padres in the early 1980s. 

Ramirez played in 18 games for the Mets in 1980, but the Padres took him in the Rule V draft that off-season.  Ramirez spent parts of the next five seasons in the majors, playing in a total of 166 games for the Padres.

The 1991 Wiz Mets card is the only one that pictures Ramirez as a Met, however he had around a dozen different cards as a Padre. I purchased this card from one of Bill Corcoran’s private signings last year.

Ramirez’s hair and mustache make this a great card.
