Frankenset Page #69 WINNER -- 1988 Fleer #616 Sammy Stewart (14 votes)
I get the sense that baseball players themselves view posing for pictures as a dull, bothersome process.
I guess that's why it makes me so happy when, apropos of nothing, silly faces make their way onto baseball cards. It makes even more happy when said cards win a frankenset page, as Sammy Stewart did last week without much of a fight, taking 14 of the 33 total votes for the easy victory.
My frankenset binder is mostly a collection of cool action and quirky images, but every once in a while, I hope, it's simply able to make you laugh.
Back to a full (and lower-numbered!) group this week: the Random Number Generator decided on #15, so we'll be taking a look at that page of the frankenset (#s 127-135) here tonight.
Let's meet the nominees.
1999 Upper Deck #127 Jeff Cirillo
Enjoying my coffee.
1992 Upper Deck Minors #128 Eric Christopherson
In his spare time, Eric Christopherson produces gold albums.
2012 Topps Opening Day #129 Alex Rios
One card, a hundred smiles.
1982 Fleer #130 Bob Sykes
An otherwise mundane card made magical by the background banners.
1971 Topps #131 Curt Blefary
Horizontal '71s are the best '71s (and yes, my copy's that far off-center).
2001 Ultra #132 Matt Stairs
Throwbacks, everywhere throwbacks!
2017 Topps #133 Jace Peterson
Turning two at Wrigley.
1996 Topps #134 Chris Gomez
Turning two at Comiskey.
2017 Stadium Club #135 Jameson Taillon
I will fight anyone who says they don't like Stadium Club.
That's it for this week's page. The polls are now on the sidebar.
Happy voting!

I must say...those first 2 captions are #1 and #2 all time!!
Matt Stairs, pinch hitter extraordinaire !
I'll take Jeff Cirillo.
Man, Curt Blefary REALLY swung and missed on that pitch. I'll go with Eric Christopherson at the mixing board.
I voted for the Bruce Sutter doppelgänger.
