Frankenset Page #65 WINNER -- 1993 Upper Deck #582 Brian Hunter (8 votes)
I had a tough time deciding what my favorite card was from last week's page, and it looks like my fellow readers did as well.
While we had a high total of 37 votes, Brian Hunter ended up taking the crown with a mere eight tallies. Six of the nine cards from last week's page received between four and eight votes. We almost had a three-way tie for first until a couple latecomers put Hunter over the top.
If a single set can be classified as a Frankenset MVP, it's 1993 Upper Deck -- and now it has another notch in the Gallery of Frankenset Champions.
Today's my 27th birthday, and it gives me great pleasure to reveal this week's special birthday frankenset page -- as chosen by the Random Number Generator, we'll be taking a look at Page 36 (#s 316-324) here today.
Let's meet the nominees.
1995 Donruss #314 Wes Chamberlain
Fan favorite.
1993 Upper Deck #317 John Orton
John Orton's attempt for a repeat winner from '93 Upper Deck.
1971 Topps #318 Rudy May
Horizontal vintage FTW.
1993 Donruss #319 Geno Petralli
I've looked at this card for a good couple minutes, and I still have no idea what's going on here.
2018 Topps #320 Yasmani Grandal
I sometimes think about starting a high-five mini-collection.
1987 Topps #321 Mike Laga
Worst airbrush job ever?
1995 Pacific #322 Bob Welch
Throwback!
1996 Score #323 Jay Buhner
New from the Hallmark channel: the Everlasting Friendship of Ken Griffey Jr. and Jay Buhner.

27? Seriously? I remember when you were easily the youngest baseball card blogger out there. Man, does time fly.
Happy Bday, Nick!
Happy birthday Nick. This weeks choices are tough. I bet the results will be scattered again.
Hope you had a great special day, Nick!
Happy birthday to you and Josh Reddick!
Happy birthday! Once again, a lot of great choices, but I'm going to use my Red Sox bias on Chamberlain. How often do you see cards of non-stars getting curtain calls?
That Chamberlain card is fantastic, I agree with Matt. Going to have to track one of those down!
Happy birthday Nick! 26? Dang buddy... you're getting old.
I was torn between the pink Laga and the throwback Welch. Then that sweet Revere came along. I just wonder if he caught the ball.

Looks like like Revere robbed Freeman and got a standing ovation from Braves fans at Turner.
Petralli looks like he's about to face-plant...going with him!
If you're 27, that means I'm...never mind, I don't want to know. Happy Birthday!
HBTY Nick! Hope it's been a good one! This page is difficult as you've thrown catchers into the mix. I agree with Mike - Petralli is going down! The throwback is a beaut then there's that awful airbrush. I went with Hunter last week. Hope I pick another winner.
Happy Birthday Nick!!
Happy birthday, Nick!!
