Know your Pedro

MinorLeaguer

If you are ever looking for an early 90's HOF'er Pedro Martinez minor league card, make sure you get a Pedro J. Martinez as Murphys Law is around and one can easily make the mistake of buying a Pedro A. Martinez, also a pitcher, who had minor league cards from 1989 through about 1993.

This seller obviously doesn't realize he made a mistake in his listing so I wrote him to let him know the bad news:


Not that Pedro Martinez

The HOF Pedro has minor league cards from 1990 to 1992.

I made myself an easy way to always remember: If it looks like Pascual Perez, it's the wrong one! lol.

Even easier is that one threw righthanded and the other threw lefthanded. One was in the Dodgers organization and the other wasn't. One weighs 7 ounces more than a french fry and the other doesn't.

Totally agree, I've seen a lot of mistakes in this regard. I think I typed up a similar warning reminder back in the HOF thread when the new class was announced.

Charleston Rainbows forever man! (Those were different times)

Team during that period did have future HOFer Roberto Alomar and the not too shabby Carlos Baerga and Sandy Alomar. They were associated with the Padres back then.
