You know, I never even realized that Jim "Mudcat" Grant was missing a card in the 1970 set until I started this blog.
So why not go ahead and give him one right here!
Allow me to post up my 1970 creation:
Can't really understand why Topps didn't include him since he
appeared in 41 games in 1969, posting an 8-11 record with a 4.42 earned
run average in 114 innings of work, split between the Montreal Expos and
St. Louis Cardinals.
He'd go on to pitch two more seasons for the Oakland A's and Pittsburgh Pirates before retiring at the end of the 1971 season.
Overall he put in a nice 14-year career that saw him go 145-119
with a 3.63 ERA and 1267 strikeouts over 571 games and 2442 innings
pitched.
His finest season was 1965 for the American League champ Minnesota
Twins when he finished with a 21-7 record, the win total leading the
league, as well as leading in winning percentage (.750) and shutouts
(6).
