Ryne Sandberg Rookie Cards Checklist

From 1983 until 1991, Sandberg established himself as a consistent All-Star and Gold Glove candidate, appearing in ten straight All-Star games and won nine consecutive Gold Gloves. When he retired in 1997, his career fielding percentage of.989 was a major-league record at second base. In January 2005, Sandberg was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

On a scale of one to a hundred, I'd have to put him at the top of the list for hustle, team spirit, and attitude. Ryne Sandberg may have been the best overall player in Cubs' history!

A pre-rookie card is any card that has been printed before a player's debut at the major league level.
