On the blog today, a career-capping "not so missing" 1979 card for Atlanta Braves reliever Maximino Leon, who appeared in a handful of games during the 1978 season:
Leon appeared in five games for Atlanta that year, the last games of his six-year Major League career that began in 1973.
The entirety of his Big League tenure was with the Braves, usually out of the bullpen with a spot start here and there.
In 1978 his five appearances were all as a reliever, not factoring in a decision while pitching to a 6.35 ERA over 5.2 innings.
His numbers in the big leagues totaled a 14-18 record, with a 3.71
earned run average and 13 saves over 162 games and 310.1 innings
pitched.
