Repack Haiku #367 (Jim Leyland)

Led World Champ Marlins
Thrice Manager Of The Year
Welcome to the Hall!
 
1988 Topps
#624 Jim Leyland (MGR, CL)

Leyland was on my list of cards to do haikus for before he was voted into the Hall of Fame by the Contemporary Baseball Era Non-Players Committee. I debated whether to do a haiku or a Top 5 card tribute, and settled on the haiku. (Maybe I'll do a Top 5 later some day).
 
Congrats on your election, Mr. Leyland! Well desrved!

  1. He was around for a LONG time. His being enshrined was news to me.

  2. I'd love to see your top 5. Honestly couldn't remember any specific cards of him, so I looked him up on COMC. He has a couple of cool ones.
