Five Random Cubs Cards

I've got 16,637 Cubs cards from 195 different brands listed on a spreadsheet. A random number generator picked five cards, one each from the past several decades.




1900s - 1970s: 1971 Topps #350 Billy Williams The RNG gets things off to a great start!  Billy looks like such a nice guy. 




1980s: 1989 Team Issued Mike Bielicki This is the guy that led the team to the 1989 Eastern Division title.  He won a career-high 18 games and was 12-3 in his final 19 starts.



1990s: 1993 Topps #237 Jose Vizcaino  Jose played all over the infield in 1993 - 81 games at short, 44 games at third and 33 as a second baseman.



2000s: 2002 T206 #402 Hee Seop Choi The T206 did not produce very many nice looking cards.



2010s: 2010 Topps Peak Performance Relic #MF Mike Fontenot I've got a jersey card of Mike Fontenot with a nice blue pinstripe.  Are you jealous??     Didn't think so!

  1. The '89 Cubs team is the reason I fell in love with MLB.

  3. Second week in a row that Williams got the vintage slot. I think the RNG has a crush! B^}
