What a card: Gary Lavelle departed the Giants after 11 seasons in a deal with the Blue Jays that landed San Francisco reliever Jim Gott on Jan. 26, 1985.
How'd that go: Lavelle finally made the postseason in his first year with Toronto in 1985. But he missed all of 1986 with an elbow injury.
Backatya: Several major leaguers have called Scranton, Pa., home but there hasn't been one for a long time. Lavelle is the most recent Scranton native to reach the bigs.
Back-to-back: The flagship card is No. 462 and was originally blogged on Oct. 13, 2015. For whatever reason, it looks like Lavelle dyed his hair on his Traded card.
The blog wants to speak now: The Pop Culture tab is updated.
