Featuring Dave Martinez with the Montreal Expos, this Dave Martinez autographed 1992 Upper Deck #382 Montreal Expos card is a transitional issue from the season in which he moved on to the Cincinnati Reds. Upper Decks early-1990s releases were known for their sharp photography and polished presentation, making this an attractive card from the closing chapter of Martinezs Montreal years.
Martinez joined the Expos in July 1988 after beginning his Major League career with the Chicago Cubs. He became a regular in Montreals outfield, offering the versatility to play all three positions along with a combination of contact hitting and speed.
His strongest season with the Expos came in 1990, when Martinez batted .279 with a career-high 147 hits, 23 doubles, 11 home runs, a career-best 60 RBI and 17 stolen bases. He remained with Montreal through 1991, appearing in 133 games and collecting 119 hits during his final season with the club.
Martinez joined Cincinnati for 1992 and continued a playing career that eventually spanned 16 Major League seasons. He retired with 1,599 hits, 91 home runs, 580 RBI, 183 stolen bases and a .276 batting average while establishing a reputation as a dependable and versatile outfielder.
His baseball career later continued in the dugout, where Martinez served as bench coach for the 2016 World Series champion Chicago Cubs before managing the Washington Nationals to the 2019 World Series championship. Combining Upper Decks photography-driven presentation with Martinezs Montreal imagery, the 1992 Upper Deck #382 is an appealing addition for Expos collectors, Dave Martinez fans, Upper Deck collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
