Glenn Wilson #626/129T


This week's card...Glennbo! Glenn Wilson was a Tigers 1st round pick in 1980. He had a great arm and was a very good right fielder. Glenn was part of a trade that made the 1984 Detroit Tigers and was a 1985 All Star for the Philadelphia Phillies. He drove in 102 runs in 1985 and led the NL in outfield assists 3 straight years. He has gone through some personal ups and downs...but came out stronger on the other side.
