Jeff Fassero Autographed 1997 Fleer Ultra #326 Seattle Mariners Card

Featuring Jeff Fassero with the Seattle Mariners, this Jeff Fassero autographed 1997 Fleer Ultra #326 Seattle Mariners card captures the left-handed starting pitcher following his move from Montreal to Seattle. Fassero arrived after establishing himself as one of the National League's dependable starters and immediately became an important part of the Mariners rotation.

Fassero took an unusual route to the Major Leagues, spending years in the minor leagues and independent baseball before making his MLB debut with the Montreal Expos in 1991 at age 28. Initially used in relief, he eventually moved into the starting rotation and developed into one of Montreal's most reliable pitchers.

His finest season with the Expos came in 1996, when Fassero went 15-11 with a 3.30 ERA and 222 strikeouts across 231 2/3 innings. The 222 strikeouts established a career high and ranked among the National League leaders.

Seattle acquired Fassero before the 1997 season, and he immediately delivered one of the best years of his career. He went 16-9 with a 3.61 ERA and 189 strikeouts over 234 innings, helping the Mariners win the American League West championship. His 16 victories established a career high.

Fassero pitched 16 Major League seasons with the Expos, Mariners, Rangers, Red Sox, Cubs, Cardinals, Rockies, Diamondbacks and Giants, finishing with 121 victories and 1,643 strikeouts. The 1997 Fleer Ultra #326 is an appealing first-year Seattle issue for Mariners collectors, Jeff Fassero fans, 1997 AL West championship collections, Fleer Ultra collectors or collectors assembling comprehensive autographed player runs.
