Another Baseball card update was posted tonight for seasons 1956-1973. Some great new additions from here, Ebay, Baseball Birthdays and of course from TV. Thanks to all who contributed. Game Front

Is there a link for a separate 2015 MLB Debuts thread?

You can find the 2015 debut thread here. It is also the first link in the bottom line of my signature.

Former Braves (2004), Brewers (2005-07) and Tigers (2008) died of heart attack at age 34, per his family.

Could throw 100, just not for strikes.

Does anyone have Ron Roenicke with the 1984 Padres? All I have ever seen of him is a blurred screenshot from uni-watch.com that shows his back.

KenRaffensberger16 · 04-08-2015, 04:41 PM

La Troy Hawkins: 21 consecutive years in the majors (1995-2015). Since Jeter and Giambi
have retired (the only other active players last year who debuted in 1995) Hawkins will be in
a category all by himself. A-Rod is also in his 21st year in the majors (1994-2013; 2015) but
with last year's suspension, those years aren't consecutive. Hawkins debuted April 29, 1995.
Hawkins earned a Save Tuesday night. He now has 1001 pitching appearances
(98 starts, 903 games relieved). All of his starts occurred from 1995 to 1999. He's been strictly
a reliever since 2000. He's one of 16 pitchers in MLB history to pitch in 1,000 games.
This is his Topps 1995 rookie card.

A very young Larry Walker, Expos
A rare Otto Velez, Indians 1983 (10 games)
A scarce John Verhoeven, White Sox (6 games)
And a very unlucky player, longtime ChiSox 1B Greg Walker, at the end of the road, spring training 1991 with the Angels. From the L.A.Times:"Greg Walker: After series of injuries and a frightening episode with brain seizures, first baseman tries to come back with the Angels" Unfortunately, he did not make the team, and retired.

rico43 · 04-08-2015, 09:20 PM

Walker still in baseball as a hitting coach. Was with Braves last year, working as a system wide instructor this year.

A great find, thanks. If you don't mind my asking, where are you getting these from? I haven't seen any new zip files on BB Birthdays.

Didn't mean to "thank" you, but that's OK.

If John, like me, is expecting the files to be in alphabetical sequence then he, like me, probably didn't notice the new file yet.

TV has been posting JE and JF images (which had naturally followed JD, before that JC, and so on). But they slipped in a GQ file. 71 images so far, I think. Not that they haven't back tracked on the alphabet before, but usually with card images and artwork sorts of things--not generally player pictures.

I'm sure John will be on top of it before you know it.

rico43 · 04-09-2015, 06:13 AM

My dectective skills are failing me after having some pretty good success ID'ing some of the TV releases.

But I am missing the big obvious answer to this one. It HZ076 in the vault.
Who is he please. I promise not to choke up this site with many of these.

I hadn't noticed... I'll have it up later today. Thanks, Jack!

Looking for a non-tiny Pirates photo or two of Mark Lee. Developed by the Padres, traded to the Bucs in 1980.

B&W is ok at this point, especially the team-issued photo with the big ol' bug-eyed glasses.

Thankew,
Jay

According to Topps, its Dan Firova.

I think Topps is wrong on that ID. Firova had dark hair and a mustache, and I believe he was (is) Hispanic.
