Card of the Day

1983 Fleer #625

I'm not sure exactly when this picture was taken, presumably 1982. At any rate Frank looks pretty confident for a guy who wouldn't have his first good year until 1984. His record for 1982-83 combined was 11-25 with a 5.37 ERA. In 1984 he went 18-12 with an ERA of just 3.21, the beginning of a terrific five year run, which culminated with his winning the Cy Young award in 1988. That season he finished 24-7 with a 2.64 ERA.
