EY Sr. an intentional interloper?

Good eyeballs on you. I had to leave out Junior Eric, otherwise the interloper would have been too obvious with both Youngs appearing. But now that the cat's out of the bag, I could put EYJ into this thread.

I was going to guess Brian Rose earlier, zero recollection of his metness.

There's a 1990s card design that came out of a box of Rice Krispies circa 1978.

Except that they got permission to display MLB logos so they didn't have to airbrush the hat and jersey.

I'll save you some extra work.
LaTroy Hawkins has pitched for every team.
You don't have to find his card. We'll understand.

Four players seem to always come up when I do these threads. I'd bet I've never done one of these card threads without at least one and probably two of these four players coming up.

The four players are Hawkins, Octavio Dotel, Todd Zeile and Ty Wigginton. All four are in this thread.

What kind of a misbegotten nightmare is this?

That's from the Topps 2015 Retro Archive Set. Apparently, Topps went all out to recreate the 1972 baseball card vibe.

Poor Jim Tatum looks like he was dumped in the desert with nothing but a baseball bat.

No, that's an awful MS Paint redoing of his 2015 Topps Archives set card.

MS Paint? I was guessing finger paint!

Re: Cards to Look at in Denver when You're Still Not Dead

That Reyes card is supposed to look like that, I think. In the early '70s, if Topps wanted to portray a player on his current team in the same season that he was traded, isn't that what the resulting card might look like?
