Random Card of the Day

Regarding the inclusion of these people in this set: We would receive the photos and info from the team. The teams really drove what was put on the cards, not the manufacturer. So, for all the majority of MiLB sets that are checklisted here, the team itself is who decided who got on a card, and how they got on it. Thank goodness they didn't want each one of them on their own card! It was already a 31 card set.

Bet you have some neat stuff stashed from your time there.

I work in printing now myself, but it's mostly letter type stuff. If I had access to programing, probably get myself in trouble by making custom cards.

The guy in the upper left is no longer in baseball. He is doing an off Broadway show "Dennis Miller: The SNL Years".

I couldn't tell from using the search engine, but can anyone confirm for me that this really is Seth Fogler's official rookie card?  

Seriously, though, I think it's really cool that someone gave some respect to the folks behind the scenes.  And I'm really glad this made a RCOTD.

I actually like that Star made this card (and others like it). You'd never see those positions on a card in 1990 MLB sets, even though the sets were 600-900 cards per set. At those numbers, I'd have rather known who was GM/OM/AA than see multiple needless subsets with the same players in each one. Even though they wouldn't be worth much money, cards like this would be a fun chase for set collectors and give us more real info about each team. That would make a nice 30-card MLB subset these days, instead of creating a subset that basically gives you a copy of the All-Star subset. I don't think parallels of them would be a good idea though. JMO.
