Thank you Cusick. I like the late 60's retro Astros look of the jacket. I like the colors of the image all the way to the flush in Miscik's face. Very cool.

Here is another image of wiry Venezuelan Julian Ladera who pitched in the Browns and Reds systems before moving on to the Mexican League. According to Baseball Reference his career spanned from 1952- 61 though it appears Ladera continued to hurl for several years in his native country. Here is Ladera on the cover of HIT magazine circa 1960 when he played for the Red Eagles of Veracruz. I love these HIT magazine covers as the players are presented so colorfully .

Edelen has a good minor league career and cups of coffee with the Cardinals and Reds. Here he is pictured with the AA Arkansas Travelers off and on from 1977 to 1980 winning 28 and losing 13. Arm problems cut his career short in 1983 at the age of 27. Included is a link to the Oklahoman where it talks about Edelen pitching 17 innings in a Class B high school championship game and striking out 35. "Benny Joe" is pictured on the 1980 card. Joe as a 1978 Traveler and "Joey" is shown winding up in 1973. Joe Edelen like his brother Jimmy won Oklahoma's Jim Thorpe award as outstanding high school athletes in baseball and basketball.

As I come across useful ones (where you can see at least most of the faces) I add them. I seen some that would be great additions, but you can't see anyone's face. Then it's just a bunch of uniforms.

Arturo Gonzalez enjoyed a long and winding professional career beginning as a 16 year old centerfielder in 1972 and finishing as a pitcher in the Mexican League in 2003. Gonzalez was an error prone center fielder and hit about .175 with a horrific strikeout to walk rate. Fortunately for Arturo he had a good arm.. Good enough to reach the AAA level with the Portland Beavers in 1985 and '86 where he was a back to back 10 game winner. He was good enough to get a major league but it was not meant to be. in 28 seasons as a pitcher Arturo Gonzalez won 126 games.

Arturo Gonzalez was on the Philadelphia Phillies' spring roster in 1986 and he was a non-roster invitee with them in 1985.
