NOT REALLY MISSING IN ACTION- 1974 DAVE PAGAN

Up on the blog today is a “not so missing” 1974 card for former pitcher Dave Pagan, a player who I’ve created a couple of other cards through the years:


Pagan made his MLB debut in 1973 with four appearances for the New York Yankees, one of those a start, not factoring in a decision while posting a nice 2.84 earned run average over 12.2 innings.
Overall he had a five-year career, finishing with a 4-9 record, along with a 4.96 E.R.A., one shutout, four saves and 147 K's over 232.1 innings of work spread over 85 games pitching for the Yanks, Baltimore Orioles, Seattle Mariners and Pittsburgh Pirates.
One last note on Pagan: he hails from the relatively remote town of Nipawin, Saskachewan, Canada.
Check out the location! As far as a baseball player goes, man that is remote!
A good friend of mine lives in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and the Winters there are insane. THIS town of Nipawin is a few hundred miles NORTH of that! So I can't even imagine what it's like up there…
