“ Are we sure this isn't the Alctraz League set release? ” -addysdaddy
“ Obviously an A's affiliate by their use of green and gold. ” -jlaz10
“ While we're at it, his cards are listed under "Joe Ortiz", which should be separated from the post-2010 minor league pitcher Joe Ortiz. ” -volbox
“ Ortiz was drafted by the Brewers in the 8th round during the 1987 MLB Draft. He also played in the Athletics minor league system never reaching higher than High A ball. Career Minor League stats: 534 At Bats, .236 Average, 4 Home Runs and 58 RBI. After playing only 7 games in 1990 with the Modesto A's, he was cut and his baseball career was over. ” -carthage44
