Cards You Want To See?

dishnet34 · 11-22-2018, 01:31 PM

With the cavalcade of cards we have already, what kind of interesting cards do you want to see? I personally have just one low-level suggestion from the Tigers, as they're my favorite team, and that's a One-Hit Wonder or Rookie Sensation Brennan Boesch (DET, 2010 or 2011)

What would be interesting to have in the game for you guys?

They might be in but not sure but Kerry Wood and Mark Prior.

Kerry looks pretty jazzed to be here

I'd like to have Bill Melton - 3rd Base White Sox 1971, Peak (favorite all time White Sox)
Harold Baines - OF White Sox - Historical All-Star, Peak (2nd favorite White Sox)

I'd be stoked to have these 2 guys on my team.

New Orleans Cajuns

Harold Baines would be awesome.

1983 Dickie Thon

Oh! and 1987 Benito Santiago

Dickie Thon is in the game, and I think it is that year.

'85 Willie McGee

There is a different year of Santiago - 1990 - in the auction house right now too.

If we're cool with irresponsibly throwing names out there, I'll throw one out myself :-D

David Clyde - the card will be garbage, but he played an interesting and somewhat significant role in the history of baseball in north Texas.

Additionally, there are some random cards that I would expect to exist but haven't seen or heard of yet... a Shoeless Joe, an Expos CF variant of the Andre Dawson I've seen... There are plenty, I'm sure. However, I'll wait until I see more before I start going crazy with the random player shout outs.

Willie is killing it for my all-Cardinals team, leads the league in batting at .334.

Ryan Klesko, Braves, 1994, Rookie Sensation.

He was one of my early heros when I got into baseball, almost 25 years ago.

2006 One Hit Wonder Kevin Kouzmanoff. Hit a grand slam on the first pitch he ever saw in his big-league debut (first player to be definitively known to have done so on their first pitch). Had an average and forgettable career after, but was a prospect at the time.

How about players who had a good year for a team other than the one they’re associated with? You could have Babe Ruth’s one year as a Red Sox OF, Joe Morgan as a 21-year-old Astro, Mo Vaughn’s first year with the Angels, etc. I bet I could think of 15-20 of these pretty easily.

acclaim99 · 11-24-2018, 10:51 PM

I don't know if they are in the game already, but:

Phillies Roy Halladay, Phillies Cole Hamels, Phillies Cliff Lee
