Question for Andy

In both his rookie season, 1952 and then in 1960, Mantle led the league in .OPS. both years, his league leading .OPS's were 2 of the lowest of his career, both below 1000. the 1952 league ERA was 3.67 compared to 3.41 in 1968, the Year of the Pitcher, and the 4.02 of 1961, the pre-steroid HR year. sometimes in these down years for certain stats, the leaders cards r very Strat friendly and vice versa. are they available anywhere for viewing? thanks

my OPS numbers were for the American League only. what about 1960? surprised by Mantle Fielding errors.

There is a 1960 Mantle card in the mystery set.

love the 60 card but if history repeats Strat will alter/change the card for ATG. compare both the Mantle and Maris cards from the 60's Mystery Game to ATG cards and they are very different. :evil:
