2007 Topps, Troy Tulowitzki

Card No. 135

A former 7th-overall draft choice out of Long Beach State, Troy Tulowitzki is today's Jukebox hit...."Tulo" accrued two Gold Gloves and a pair of Silver Slugger awards during his 13-year big league career....As you can tell from the logo in the top left corner, this is his rookie card....Troy's first seven Topps cards all feature action shots of him in the act of throwing....Collected his first major league hit in his second career game, an infield single off Mets southpaw Oliver Perez, 8/31/06.

2007 Topps, Dontrelle Willis

Card No. 100

The man they called "D-Train," southpaw Dontrelle Willis and the unmistakable black borders of 2007 Topps combine for today's entry....The '07 set is one of two in Topps annals to feature a black border (1971 also)....Willis first appeared on a Topps card in the 2002 Traded and Rookies release....Made his base-set debut the following year, sharing a "Prospects" card with fellow Marlins minor leaguer Jason Stokes.... Nobody started more games (35) or yielded more earned runs (116) than Dontrelle did during the '07 season.
