NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1975 GREG SHANAHAN

Today the blog offers up a "not so missing" 1975 card for former Los Angeles pitcher Greg Shanahan, who played a total of 11 games in his brief two-year Major League career:

 
Shanahan, who was originally up with the Dodgers for seven games in 1973, came back for four games during their 1974 season which saw the team go all the way to the World Series before losing to the three-peat Oakland A's juggernaut.
For Shanahan, he never factored in a decision over his career, posting an earned run average of 3.57 in 22.2 innings of work, striking out 13 while walking nine.
After the 1974 season he'd toil in the Minors in 1975 and 1977 for both the Los Angeles and Kansas City Royals organizations, but never get a shot back to the Big Leagues again.
