74 Bench and 72 Fisk are great incremental adds for those 2.

I second the Kennedy and Santiago suggestions. The Padres need more C choices.
The one Santiago card in the set isn’t very fun, unless you have the other team.
Cannizzaro might be better than both, since he has no card and played for 6 different clubs.

88 LaValliere, 90 B. Harper, 70 Fosse, 71 Mitterwald all fill holes.

Rudy York 1938. This would be his first catcher card, and his best full time hitting season. Caught 116 games that year
.298/.417/.579/.995 OPS+ of 140

A Fisk white sox card makes good sense. anyone else have an opinion on which season to nominate?
