Add a signed card of future Silver Slugger catcher Michael Barrett with this 2002 Upper Deck MVP #209 Montreal Expos issue.
This card comes from the 2002 Upper Deck MVP set, a 301-card release that continued one of Upper Deck's most popular mainstream baseball brands. Known for its sharp photography, clean contemporary design, and collector-friendly format, the set featured a strong mix of veteran stars, rising young players, and rookies. Hobby boxes also included game-used memorabilia cards, adding to the product's appeal among collectors.
Selected by the Montreal Expos with the 28th overall pick in the first round of the 1995 MLB Draft, Michael Barrett enjoyed 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 one of Barrett's best seasons with Montreal, this card captures him as the Expos' everyday catcher. In 2002, he set career highs with 16 home runs and 54 RBIs, establishing himself as one of the club's key offensive contributors before later reaching his peak with the Chicago Cubs.
