Multi-Player Rookie Cards: The Other Guys

Sports Cards

There's a fun story on The Athletic - Matt Holliday wasn’t supposed to be the star on his rookie card. Meet the player who was. It dives into Jeff Winchester and how he unexpectedly became one of the “other guys” on a multi-player rookie card.

It got me wondering: Who’s the ultimate Other Guy on one of these cards?

For me, it’s hands-down Jerry Koosman - not because Koosman was a bust (far from it with 222 wins, All-Star appearances, and a World Series ring), but because he just so happened to be paired with Nolan frickin' Ryan on what many consider to be one of the hobby's most iconic cards.

So who gets your vote for the ultimate Other Guy multi-player rookie card?

Although Jeff Winchester and Matt Holliday shared a rookie card, they went on to have much different careers. But they still keep in touch.
