From the back of the card: “Fast ball pitcher.”
Last week, I posted that I was beginning a collection of 1933 Goudey baseball cards, with the intention of completing the entire 239 card set within half a decade or so. Here’s the first card.

Future Hall of Famer? Jorge Posada Edition
Monday, February 16th, 2009 by Nerdicus FinchThis is the first entry in what is intended to be an ongoing series of columns that discusses the potential Hall of Fame candidacy of current and recently retired players that are not yet eligible for induction. The purpose of each column will be to examine the career of a particular player and make an initial judgment as to the worthiness of the player for induction into the HOF. Obviously, the purpose of this column is to focus on non-obvious HOFers and “borderline” candidates. Today’s edition examines New York Yankees catcher Jorge Posada.
