Ugueth Urbina remains a memorable figure in Montreal Expos history, serving as the franchise's last dominant closer during the late 1990s. Known for his fiery mound presence and electric fastball, Urbina was the anchor of the Montreal bullpen from 1995 to 2001, earning an All-Star nod in 1998 and leading the National League with 41 saves in 1999. While his legacy is complicated by serious legal issues following his retirement, strictly within the realm of collecting, he holds a specific niche appeal for Venezuelan baseball historians and die-hard Expos loyalists. His 1992 Bowman rookie card is generally affordable, and his signed items are often sought after by collectors trying to complete team sets from the final era of baseball in Montreal.
