Dime Box Buy: 1994-95 Excel #131 Reid Ryan

Knowing that Reid Ryan is Nolan Ryan's son, I couldn't pass this one up.  I felt it would make a cool blog post.

Ryan pitched two seasons in the minors, finishing with a 5-15 record and a 6.04 ERA.  He never made it out of high-A ball.  He is currently the Houston Astros' President of Business Operations.

    1. That's pretty awesome...thanks for sharing! Nolan does a local commercial and with his Texas accent says "cracks are bad" and the wifey cracks up every time she hears it.

  2. I remember Reid's cards being popular back in 1994. Back in the day, I owned his 1994 Signature Rookies autographed card that had his father on the back. I wonder whatever happened to that card.

    1. I was collecting then and have no recollection that his cards were popular...though I'm not surprised at all!
