I thought this might be a fun topic. Here are my favorite cards of players for teams they did not spend the majority of their career or gained noteriety with:

It's funny you put that Elston Howard card up. I was watching MLB Network today and they were running 1967 World Series Highlights and they showed Elston Howard with the Sox. Up until today, I never knew he played for them.

Yeah, Mr Young just does not look right in that Buc's uni. Great card though.

Young might well be holding a baseball. He sucked in Tampa

Tampa was a dog long before Young got there. You can send Peyton Manning to the Lions and it will not get them in the playoffs next year.

Unfortunately, the whole team did back then. He was the right player on the wrong team.

Imagine if he was on the team in the 90's. I'm willing to bet that they would have won a ring or two toward the end of that decade.

PSA card pictured is the property of 707 Sportscards..........

St. Louis Cardinals (1954-1958)
Los Angeles Dodgers (1959-1965)

2x All-Star selection (1957, 1959)
2x World Series champion (1959, 1965)
Gold Glove Award winner (1960)
1954 NL Rookie of the Year

While he was "famous" as having been named Rookie of the Year
by MLB and Sporting News in SL, he was exposed to a much bigger
audience in LA.

A fine fellow and nice to all the kids and fans.

Moon made his majors debut on April 13, 1954. To make room for him in the roster, St. Louis sent the veteran Enos Slaughter to the Yankees. Moon responded for good. In his

first at-bat, despite chants of "We want Slaughter", he belted a home run against the Cubs; in the same game Tom Alston became the first African American to play for the

Cardinals. Moon finished with a .304 batting average, 12 home runs, 76 RBI, and career-high numbers in runs (106), hits (193), doubles (29), and stolen bases (18) in 151

games. He earned both the MLB Rookie of the Year and The Sporting News Rookie of the Year honors. Almost a unanimous vote, Moon won easily over rookies Ernie Banks,

Gene Conley and Hank Aaron.[

A Dennis Rodman pic/card would be even more rare if were in a Mavs uniform.

I've always wanted a Juan Marichal picture in a Dodgers Uniform. No dice though.
