2017 Topps, Stephen Strasburg

Card No. 38

While 2016 may have ushered in the era of the borderless Topps card, it's the 2017 set that was the first to do it properly -- at least in my opinion....Artfully framed photo of Stephen Strasburg just after releasing the pitch....There is a short-printed 'image variation' of this card in which Strasburg is pictured at the top of the dugout steps....Stephen's famous rookie card was a 2010 factory-set exclusive, numbered #661....The former first-overall draft pick won 15 games and crafted a 2.52 ERA in '17, finishing third in N.L. Cy Young voting.
