“ That is an awesome card for a pitcher. ” -Derek McDonough

“ Nice looking card and design. If I know Upper Deck, the in-hand version is probably very nice. ” -muskie027
  2
“ Will be intresting to see in 10 years if he is more mentally associated with the Astros or Tigers (or wherever he signs this offseason) ” -c634
  4
“ I think this picture is great but you cannot see the face. I would say this card is an 8/10 overall great usage of space and photo. ” -cardcollector65jw
  2
“ Simple design, nice photo. Wish I could read the name better. I think this guy has potential to do some good things in the league. ” -Tscastle

“ One of Upper Deck's ugliest designs. It's like they gave up and said "let's see if they'll buy this crap". ” -hamrlik22
  1
“ Have Jake Rogers, Franklin Perez, and Daz Cameron made Tigers fans forget about Verlander? ” -Sportzcommish
  2
“ Wouldn’t mind him back in Houston, but think the Astros would still be okay if he went elsewhere. ” -mrackar

“ At the the time I used to think that this base set was the "gold" parallel set because of the gold in the design and the gold background on the back, but it is the silly use of gold foil for the UD logo and the player's name in gold that designated the "gold" parallel, this base the UD logo and player name is in regular silver foil. ” -captkirk42

“ Good looking card. Hard to believe this pitcher just pitched in the WS and this card from 13 years ago isnt even his rookie. ” -parsley24

“ Nice looking card, but I might be a little bias...nah!!! ” -dettigersmlb

I’m a big fan of the 2009 Upper Deck Baseball / Football design.

Always have to shout out for a Detroit player, and a great player he turned out to be. I am in the same boat as dettigersmlb, a bit biased.

I like this card. Front is very neat and the info doesn't interfere with the photo. The back is pretty standard. My only ding on the back is why UD always allows so much white space? Maybe a bio or additional photo(s) would be good. Card backs are small I hate to see so much wasted space. Otherwise, very nice card.
