Please remember I signed up as the Ambassador for the Astros. I've been working that thread since the beginning.

PITCHER JR Richard 1980 .92 whip over 9k/9. Nice upgrade.
HITTER Bill Spiers 1997, no card in 13 year career. Would make a very nice utility option 320/438/481

Since I can only nominate one hitter I will mention I was torn between Spiers and Moises Alou 2000. Only one card in set, none as Astro, nice upgraded card to 355/416/623.

yes, I don't think this is the latest list of Ambassadors.

As part of the Ambassador teams for the following franchises, here are my ideas for a 1 hitter/1 pitcher add

Sorry was running fast yesterday trying to juggle work behind SOM. I'll look for the latest version, thanks for the heads up.

As an added twist I think its fine to replace one of the current Houston nominees with a more deserving option if you see it that way.
