ATG VI New Card Batch #3: now available

Postby rburgh » Thu Nov 17, 2011 9:04 pm

Some interesting cards in this batch. I like it much better than the previous batch. Jack Coombs has a huge strikeout card - I didn't know that happened in the dead ball era.

And Larkin!

And Cano!

And Ruth 20!!!

A huge strikeout card? He only averaged 5.7 strikeouts per nine innings.
Not sure I would call it a huge strikeout card, especially compared to Walter Johnson of the same year who ran off 313 in about the same number of innings.

But it is a good card and apparently being from a chevy season left and right are virtually identical.

Added players

well done Bernie! I always thought added players happened only during ATG changeovers. Not necessary. I still would like to see cards for Rennie Stennett, Don Hahn, Bruce Boisclair, John Stearns, Jorge Orta, Pepe Frias, Roger Freed, Marv Throneberry, Jim Beachamp...Ok, mostly Mets but prime 500m player cards!

When I have more time, would love to list some others throughout history that would add to the Strat legacy that has been created and rejuvenated by Bernie and staff!

Robinson Cano an ATG? A nice year, but the ATG moniker might be a bit premature...

It's safe to say that Irish Meusel will NEVER get a card. :? :cry: :evil:

Bernie will come through. It might just take some time.

Lou Fette

When can we get a 1937 card for Lou Fette?

He is 1 of only 2 players ever to come from Alma, MO (my birthplace) but he did have one good year!
