Not a fan of the background or the cropping of the image . looks like something that should have been left in the 60's

Would look better without the orange background and looks much older than 2014.

Card design is atrocious.

I have to agree with the majority here.  Cropping out body parts is just bad on a card.  Gotta be full torso and head shot, or full body on the main subject of the card.  The background is ridiculous.

I don't mind inserts that remove "real life" backgrounds, but this one misses the mark.  It is zoomed too much into his hitting position and the color scheme doesn't work with his attire/sleeves.  Agreed, good call labeling him a Future Star back in 2014.

Too much orange on one card.

I will say that the card doesn't look as bad in person.  The orange in the background is a shiny foil and his sleaves aren't, which helps compared to the scanned look of the card you see here.
