1979 sp Joe Niekro - Phil Niekro's brother, also threw the knuckleball, in 79 finished 2nd in the cy young voting, and made the all star team. He got the win for Astros in game 163 against the Dodgers in Dodgers Stadium to lead the Astros to their first playoff birth.

1983 2b Lou Whitaker - with Trammell was the heart of some pretty good Tigers teams. 83 was his peak. Or you could do 1978 season when he won Rookie of the Year.

Bostock is a good one...

How about:

1964 Jim Bouton - won two world series games and was solid during the regular season. Could be an unsung hero......wrote a great book too.

1952 Joe Black could be a one hit wonder

1970 Cito Gaston as a historical all star

1962 Leon "Daddy Wags" Wagner - Historical all star

Joe Black is in the game. I had him in beta. Don't remember what year it was, but he was a One Hit Wonder

Yup, I see him now in the AH.....1952 which was his one good year and then they completely screwed up his pitching mechanics.

My buddy was and still is a huge Tigers fan and that Trammell-Whittaker combination was the biggest reason why. Years and years of playing together and being great...

Double yes on Cito Gaston

I have been secretly hoping that there was a card of Craig Biggio as a Catcher. Today I saw that card. Thank you so very much!

Saw that too! Had to do a double take...

[Whoofe]

Tom Gordon rookie season

[stl jason]

not sure if he's already included (haven't seen him yet if so)...



RF - Ross Youngs - 1924 (perhaps a 'peak' card)


always nice to give players whose careers were cut short another chance to play.

[Motorhead667]

1920 Babydoll Jacobson

[VARoadstter]

I've got a few gems:

1989 Rob Dibble (OVR 91) Top WAR Season

1995 Hideo Nomo (OVR 84) Rookie Sensation

1988 Kirk Gibson (OVR 87) Historical All-Star

1998 Andruw Jones (OVR 82) Unsung Hero

1992 Sid Fernandez (OVR 79) Unsung Hero

I think every card I've suggested, I ended up finding eventually. I just submitted a 1981 Dwight Evans and then saw him on the AH.

Is there a list of all the cards in the PT Universe currently? Would obviously make suggesting new cards easier if we knew which cards already existed.
