371 Brad Hawpe
439 Ben Broussard - I love it when goofy baseball cliches sneak onto these cards. His blurb mentions what a good hitter Ben is with the bags "drunk".
363 Jermaine Dye - I hope he has a son named "JerMajesty", like Jermaine Jackson.
452 Jake Westbrook
354 Grady Sizemore - This pack is drunk with Indians.
461 Placido Polanco and his huge skull
344 Doug Davis, scourge of cancer. Cancer runs from Doug Davis.
469 Josh Willingham
TP-RF Rafael Furcal Trading Places - It almost looks as though they used the same photo twice, and just Photoshopped the Dodgers uni onto the second one.
531 Juan Pierre - A Fire Joe Morgan favorite!
409 Edwin Encarnacion
385 Bill Hall - I still remember the game winning home run he hit on Mother's Day with his Mom in attendance. That was a great moment.
411 A.J. Burnett - $55 million well spent, right Jays fans?
390 Jake Peavy
587 Joe Torre MGR - What an awkward picture of Joe with his hands in his pants.
356 Luis Matos - In Baltimore, "Matos" is Spanish for "Lazy".
591 Eric Wedge MGR - Ah, Eric's still rocking the 'stache in this shot. That's how I remember him from 1993 Topps.
429 Francisco Cordero - Who throws a chair, really?
454 Bobby Jenks
432 Brett Myers - Still don't think much of this guy, but the prank he pulled on poor Kyle Kendrick was classic.
MHR33 Mickey Mantle Home Run History #33
544 Mark Bellhorn
501 Emil Brown - Emil spelled backwards is "Lime". F'real.
446 Dustin Hermanson
550 Alfonso Soriano
627 Matt Capps RC
413 Gregg Zaun - Anyone buy his "blank check" steroids defense?
425 Joe Kennedy - Rest in peace.
608 Cardinals Team Card
615 Diamondbacks Team Card
648 Brothers Orlando: Orlando Hernandez and Orlando Hudson - Huh? Brothers Orlando? Am I missing a reference here?

When I scrolled too quickly past the Furcal card, my brain whispered to me, "Transformers."
ReplyDeleteEerily similar font.
I don't want to bust balls here, but I think Frank Francisco was the Rangers reliever who threw chairs into the A's stands, not Francisco Cordero. Here's a recap from that game: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=240913111
ReplyDeleteI only know this because my brother loves the Rangers.
Hey, bust away. I thought Cordero was a little too good to stoop to those chair-tossing shenanigans.
ReplyDeleteFrank Francisco is probably working for a chair manufacturer right now.
