The many faces of Carl Nichols

So many questions to be asked here: what happened between 1988 and 1989 that improved Mr. Nichols's mood so dramatically? Why is he wearing his catcher helmet like a baseball cap in 1988? Why is he still in an Orioles uniform in 1989 when he played the whole season for the Houston Astros?
Whatever those answers may be, we thank Carl Nichols for embracing the spirit of nerd baseball, and wearing his heart so expressively on his sleeve.

Nerds Infiltrate Topps!
Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009 by Nerdicus FinchFor those of you, like me, who haven’t seen a new baseball card since you bought that $5.00 pack of 1994 Fleer Flair, you might be interested in this post on the Yahoo! baseball blog, in which the author thumbs through a pack of 2009 Topps. I especially liked the Jerome Walton reference.
The cards are pretty hideous, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that WHIP is included as a stat category on the backs of the cards! I don’t know how long this has been going on, but I think it’s pretty obvious that nerds have infiltrated the upper management of Topps. What’s next, Donruss replacing “Rated Rookies” with “VORP Rookie All Stars?”
