Mailbox Surprise!

We haven't been getting many yellow envelopes in the mail lately, basically because we haven't been making many trades. It kinda gets hard to keep trades going without a whole lot of new product making it into the house. So, I was quite surprised when I pulled a yellow envelope out of the box the other day. The package came from Portland and inside was this little gem.

TJ sent us a nice autographed card of a presumably pre-roided out Juando. This is from Juan's third season I believe as the stats on the back show he had only played in a total of 49 games in 2 season for the Rangers. In those 49 games Juan hit 5 HRs for an average of 1 HR every 9.8 games. I wonder if anyone would have predicted that he would end up being (still) the Rangers all time HR leader with 372 in 1400 games, which ends up being 1 in every 3.76 games. Now that's some power! Thanks for the card TJ. Later.

  1. Sweet card... it sure looks familiar TJ! Gonzalez was a beast during the 90's... it's unfortunate we'll never know what he could have done on his own power.
