Take a Look at some Kyle Funkhouser Baseball Cards - Our 2nd 2015 1st Round Pick

I still find it strange that amateur ballplayers have Baseball cards on the market.  How can this be?  They obviously (at least, I think) aren't paid for inclusion into this product, and you'd think there wouldn't be a huge market for it.  On the other hand, the cards available of our compensation 1st Round Pick (35th overall), Kyle Funkhouser, are of the Team USA variety, so I guess that's OK.

BTW, our first pick of the draft, Walker Buehler, doesn't appear to have any cards available at all.  He never played for Team USA, and I couldn't find his name connected to any other "prep" card sets on the market.  No doubt, that will change soon.

As for Funkhouser, he is found in two different Team USA Baseball cards sets.  He has several cards available in the 2014 Panini USA set and in the recently released 2015 Panini USA Stars & Stripes set.

As with most Panini products today there are a bunch of parallels, and the checklist provided is a bit of a confusing mess.  Nevertheless, I have been able to track down most of Kyle's cards I am aware of.  Check them out below.

Over the next few days I'll try to track down cards of all of our other draft picks, so stay tuned.

I believe the card below is some sort of base set parallel, but I have not been able to track it down on a published checklist.  It is #11.
