This reflects his needs as of 12-27-2023. Excellent condition or better is preferred, but I'd probably take a lower grade (but still presentable) card if the price/deal is right. I'm happy to trade cards on my FST list for these as well, but I expect that I'll end up buying more often than not. All of them should be on my wantlist to help with matches, but I also have some from this set on there for my personal wants as well.

I'm a Reds fan. When Shogo Akiyama became the first Japanese player to play as a Red, I was quite surprised to learn that the Reds were the last team to have a Japanese player suit up and play for them. I decided it would be interesting to learn who the other "firsts" were. As it turns out, most teams were late to the party. (The first was Masanori Murakami playing for 1 year in the mid-1960s and the second was Hideo Nomo in 1995 for the Dodgers with Shogo coming along in 2020).

I debated the inclusion of firsts after a team changed names. Obviously, the first Nat seemed to be worth separating from the first Expo, but was first Ray versus the first Devil Ray worth noting? In the end, I decided to include them, just as an excuse to grow the list a little bit and document team name changes over time.

Also, here's a quick list of team names which never had a Japanese player suit up for them (post-1964): Milwaukee Braves, Kansas City Athletics, Washington Senators, Seattle Pilots, Florida Marlins, and the Cleveland Guardians* (*still in existence, so could leave the list).

This is for me to figure out and remember the order I want my Joel Youngblood cards to go into their binder pages. I'm ignoring postcards (and maybe a variant or two), so I need something better than just a list of all his cards on the site. This seemed like the best idea.

Background: I was buying some cards on eBay and only needed a few more for free shipping (or some deal like that). I picked out Joel's RC because he was a Red & I thought his name was interesting. When it arrived, I went to put it away, and discovered I had his 1990 Score card, when he was also a Red. Was he really a Red for all those years and I didn't know about him? Turns out, no! 1976 and 1989 are his only years as a Red. I was intrigued, so I did a little research. The more I learned, the more fascinated and amused by this guy I was. So, I decided to start collecting his cards. It's fun to have this ongoing quest as well as become a little more familiar with the different sets of this era.

This is for me to track and collect my Joel Youngblood cameo-appearance cards.

If you know of any other cards like those in my list, feel free to leave a comment!

I have separate lists for his main cards, any checklists he's named on, stickers, and even buybacks I've picked up.

Unlike other lists, I will only add these as they're acquired. Don't really have any on my wantlist, but I'd be interested in trading for (and *possibly* buying) any I don't have.

All the checklists on which Joel Youngblood appears (his name must appear on the card - if he's in the team photo but not listed, it's a cameo in my other list). Not a huge collection priority for me, but the idea is fun so I'll pick one up now and then. Chances are I missed at least one, so feel free to let me know if you know that another checklist with his name on it exists.

This is a list of the cards I won by correctly guessing a player within three of the packs assembled by Gunny in a fun and interesting giveaway. Thanks again to him, and you can read more about the rules/other winning packs here: https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/B/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=44387&PageIndex=1

This is to help me keep my Galen Cisco PC cards in order. Seems easier than constantly going back to his player page or going into my collection and my wantlist to get everything in the correct order.

August 16, 2023 Update: I added 17 team cards to the end of the list. Some only list his pitching stats, but use a photo predating his time on the particular team. But some, including essentially his entire run as a Royals coach, do have Cisco in them. For now, they're an addition at the end of the main list. But I might consider either splitting them off with other cameos or just fully incorporating them to order these chronologically within the full list.

I'm not sure if this really counts as a Frankenset since it's all from the same year, but it's what I'll call it for now. Basically, I'm trying to complete a set of 2019 A&G minis where the base and any of the three main parallels can count toward the goal. I'm going to use this to keep track instead of adding every version of a card I don't have to my wantlist.

If you're looking to trade/sell any I don't have, I might be interested. My preference is as follows: Gold or Black Frame > Regular >>> A&G Back. Basically, I'm content with a regular or either framed kind - the A&G backs are fine to fill a hole, but I'm willing to trade those out for the right deal. (And any NNO, SN'ed, or other special mini is cool, but likely won't be stored as a part of the Frankenset).

Santa brought me a box of ~600 unopened junk wax cards. Both regular packs as well as a few rack packs, which I thought were extra cool to open up. Here are some of the highlights for me to look back on later.

Ok, "rake" is maybe generous. Still, Cisco got 21 hits off 18 different pitchers during his career. Here are the cards from the opposing pitchers.

My sister gave me a large box of cards that came from a thrift shop. This list is to point out the highlights of what I'm keeping. It won't be *everything* because there are hundreds of cards. (I ended up keeping ~835 of the cards).

I just want to make this list so I can remember where the best cards came from and to help jog my memory about the sort of cards that were in this box as a whole.
