Thanks to our friend Paul, who scoured his old bedroom for nerd cards while home for Thanksgiving. I’ll let him begin the discussion of Mr. Young. From his e-mail to me:

oh my. some extraordinarily discouraging discoveries. apparently the last time i had sorted my cards, mike piazza and juan gonzalez were the two best players in all of baseball.

i found some wacky Fleer Ultra heroes set that was apparently ultra-limited to 150,000. WTF? on what planet is that limited?

some notes:

top 3 cards are from 1992 bowman (i think) – a set so filthy with rookie cards that more than half of the cards don’t even have stats on the back and instead say things like “Rick made his Professional Baseball debut at Everett in 1990. He pitched at San Jose in 1991.”

According to Wikipedia, “Kevin is known for his kid-friendly humor and desire to educate kids about the game of baseball.” He was also named in the 2007 Mitchell Report.
