Hopefully the dog didn't suffer the same fate - as Mitchell's girlfriend's cat back in 1986.
Besides supposedly lopping off a cat's head - Mitchell won the 1989 National League MVP with 47 home runs and 125 RBIs.
One of the things I like to do is scour through common bins looking for cards like the Mitchell pictured - I might not find any of the 'has been' hits out of a pack break, but I'm actively looking for cards, instead of doing this 'faux pack break,' where I'm supposed to be excited, leafing through a pack of cards I wouldn't have bought five, 10 or 15 years ago.
Nice card and blog. I am a closet Mitchell fan...
