Card of the Day: 1999 Upper Deck 10th Anniversary Alex Rodriguez

As much of a weirdo as A-Rod is, and as much as I hate the Yankees, I have to respect what he’s done. I just have to.

Card of the Day: 2002 SPx GU Frank Thomas and Magglio Ordonez

Just a sweetass card today.

Card of the Day: 2010 Topps Chrome Purple Refractor Nick Johnson

Oh, Nick. I wish your career would have turned out better. If only you weren’t made out of glass.

Card of the Day: 2003 Bowman Heritage Luis Aparicio

Just learned of the existence of the Luis Aparicio award, given to the best Venezuelan player in the majors as voted on by the Venezuelan sports writers. Carlos Gonzalez of the Rockies won it this year.

Card of the Day: 2010 Topps Stephen Strasburg

Finally pulled this from a pack of Topps Update a week or so ago. Glad to get it off the damn needs list.

Card of the Day: 1967 Topps Frank Howard

Man, are those some birth control glasses or what?

Card of the Day: 2009 Goodwin Preview Albert Pujols

Albert, if you don’t stay with the Cardinals, please go to the AL. But really, it’s best for baseball if you stay with the Cards.

Card of the Day: 2001 Fleer Platinum Aubrey Huff

Featuring a world series winner. Man, those Rays uniforms were pretty awful, weren’t they? Yikes.

Card of the Day: 2005 Topps Turkey Red Ryan Drese Auto

It’s an in-person autograph, from Drese’s short time with the Nationals. Ryan’s major league career ended in 2006 in Washington, and he was last seen with independent Long Island in 2010.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Card of the Day: 1987 Topps Dusty Baker

Given that tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I thought I’d feature a guy who’s cooked a few arms in his time.
