Five Random Cubs Cards

 I've got 18,516 Cubs cards from 257 different brands listed on a spreadsheet. A random number generator picked five cards, one each from the past several decades.



1900s - 1970s: 1965 Topps #186 Billy Cowan Cowan never suited up for the 1965 Cubs.  He was traded to the Mets over the winter.  


1980s: 1988 Donruss #169 Jamie Moyer The 1988 season was Moyer's final with the Cubs.  He went 9-15 and then the Cubs traded him over the winter to the Rangers in the Palmiero / Mitch Williams trade.


1990s: 1994 Topps #638 Jose Vizcaino  This picture would be perfect for Panini to use .  His glove covers the Cubs logo and the shadows make the C on the hat hard to see.


2000s: 2002 Topps Total #830 Matt Clement  Cool shot!  It looks like the ball is coming right at us!


2010s: 2019 Topps #126 Javier Baez Bring It In  This picture is from the 2018 NLDS, when Baez ran into ran into Nolan Arenado.
