OCTAVIO DOTEL - AUTOGRAPHED SIGNED PHOTOGRAPH - HFSID 260356
Price: $90.00
OCTAVIO DOTEL. Photograph signed: "Octavio Dotel". Color,
8x10. Dotel began his career as an unflappable starter on the New York Mets.
When he had control, his curve and slider prepared the way for a 95 MPH
heater that blew away batters. After going 4-1 in late season action in
1999, he seemed a shoo-in for the Mets' post-season rotation, but he was
relegated to the bullpen, where Dotel struggled. Traded to the Houston Astros,
he was inconsistent the following season, relying too heavily on a fastball that
he could not longer seem to spot late in the game. By mid-season he was back in
the bullpen. After a confrontation with two veteran relievers, with increased
self-assurance, Dotel recovered his control and started dominating hitters,
becoming one of the league's best setup men. On June 24, 2004, he was traded by
the Astros to the Oakland A's in a three-team five-player trade that sent Carlos
Beltran from the Kansas City Royals to the Astros. Fine
condition.
