When I was growing up and living with my parents, I stored all of my baseball cards in a closet in the TV room. Recently, my parents began renovating this room and had to empty out the closets. Upon doing so, my Mom made it clear to me that I had to store my baseball cards in my own house. This has resulted in tens of thousands of (mostly worthless) baseball cards sitting in boxes in my sunroom.

I was flipping through some of the cards the other day and found Mr. Barber, one of many 1992 Topps Draft Pick cards that features really awkward photos straight out of school picture day. Barber was selected in the first round (22nd overall) in the 1991 draft by the St. Louis Cardinals. From 1995-99, he got into 26 games for the Cardinals and Royals, going 5-8 with a 6.77 ERA.
