Rick Reed played in the Majors from 1988 until 2003. He got a good number of cards, but most of them came after he was a replacement player and re-invented himself as a pitcher. He pitched for the Pittsburgh Pirates from 1988 to 1991, the Kansas City Royals in 1992 and part of 1993, the Texas Rangers from part of 1993 to 1994, the Cincinnati Reds in 1995, the New York Mets from 1997 through 2001 when he was traded to the Minnesota Twins during midseason, and played with them through 2003, his final Big League season.
Rick got his first Topps card in 1993. He didn't get into another Topps set until 1998, but after that he appeared in every set through 2004, which was his final Topps card. He is missing cards from the 1989 through 1992 Topps sets, and the 1994 through 1996 Topps sets. I finished his 1992 and 1994 Topps cards, and now he only has the 1989, 1990, 1991, 1995, and 1996 sets that he needs a card from. I will also make a card of him from the 1994 Topps Traded Update set for when he was a replacement player with the Reds. Here is the 1994 Topps regular version I made.
I have a lot of stuff going on right now (most of which you can read about on my
other blog), so it may be a while before I post again, but I will keep plugging away at this set.
Thanks for taking the time to read my lastest post.
