Add a signed card of future Silver Slugger catcher Michael Barrett with this 2000 SkyBox #172 Montreal Expos issue.
This card comes from the 2000 SkyBox flagship set, a 250-card release that combined sharp action photography with the clean, modern design that made SkyBox one of the hobby's most recognizable brands. The final 50 cards in the checklist are devoted to top prospects, while Michael Barrett's #172 appears in the veteran section, capturing him during the early stages of his Major League career.
Selected by the Montreal Expos with the 28th overall pick in the first round of the 1995 MLB Draft, Michael Barrett went on to enjoy an 11-year Major League career with the Montreal Expos, Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres, and Toronto Blue Jays. Originally drafted as a shortstop, Barrett successfully transitioned to catcher in the minor leagues and developed into one of the National League's premier offensive backstops. He finished his career with 98 home runs, 424 RBIs, a .263 batting average, and earned the 2005 National League Silver Slugger Award.
Issued during Barrett's first full Major League season, this card showcases one of Montreal's brightest young players as he established himself behind the plate. With its bold photography and contemporary SkyBox styling, it remains one of Barrett's most attractive mainstream issues from the 2000 season.
