Pepe Mangual

Outfielder Pepe Mangual was called up in late 1972 and was one of the first players to be developed by the Expos to make it to The Show, hitting .273 in 8 games in his first taste of the majors. In 1975 he spent the entire season with the Expos as the team's starting center fielder and had a decent season, despite hitting only .245: he drew 74 walks, scored 84 runs and stole 33 bases. When young CF Ellis Valentine was called up in '76 and started hitting very well, however, Pepe was deemed expendable, as by then the Expos' system was teeming with young outfielders: Jerry White and Bombo Rivera were already in Montreal, while Andre Dawson, Warren Cromartie, Gary Roenicke and Tony Scott were knocking at the door. On July 21st, he was traded to the New York Mets where he was a major disappointment with the Mets. He hit only .186 in 41 games and played only 8 games the next year, ending his time in majors. - bRef Bullpen wiki
