(1) 1981 Donruss #260 Nolan Ryan
(1) 1981 Donruss #100 George Brett

Rose has been banned for life from the MLB Hall of Fame which is a shame. Based on pure athletic skill and heart he was one of the best to ever play the game. Yes, gambling on baseball is problematic, but banned for life? Ty Cobb played dirty, cheated, alleged racitst, and was an all around a$$hole, but he had no problem getting into the Hall of Fame. Rose was NL Rookie of the Year, 3x World Series Champion, World Seris MVP, NL MVP, 17x All Star, 1x Silver Slugger, 2x Golden Glove, oh and he holds a few MLB records such as MLB All Time Career Hits, MLB All Time Career Singles, MLB All Time Career Games, MLB All Time Career At Bats, MLB All Time Career Plate Appearances, etc.
>Nolan Ryan had a bionic arm. There's no proof of course, but how can the guy throw heat for that long! He had a 200+ strikeout season when he was 44 years old! Randy Johnson, Roger Clemens were some of the best strikeout pitchers in history and they finished their careers about 1000 strikeouts behind Ryan. Ryan's 5714 strikeouts will simply NEVER be broken. Closest active pitcher now is Sherzer. He's 39 years old and more than 2000 strikeouts short of Ryan.
George was one of the best who ever played during his 21 year career. He was the AL MVP in 1980, ALCS MVP in 1985, World Series Champion, 13x All Star, 3x Silver Slugger, 3x AL Batting Champion, Gold Glove, 3000 Hit Club, and first ballot MLB Hall of Fame inductee.
Reggie was a powerhouse especially around playoffs and World Series time. They didn't call him Mr. October for nothing. Jackson was AL MVP, 5x World Series Champion, 2x World Seris MVP, 14x All Star, 2x Silver Slugger, 2x HR Leader, and first ballot Hall of Fame inductee.
