Team Phungo coming out of hibernation for a quick post.
Our return is to honor former Phillies Farmhand Josh Zeid.
Josh Zeid: 2011 Bowman Platinum Prospects #BPP23 (xfractor)
Never thought I would find a reason to post this card of Zeid. He is make some noise pitching for the surprising Israel squad in the WBC. Team Israel advanced out of Pool A and remains undefeated one game into the 2nd round of the tournament.
The Phillies traded Zeid to Houston as part of the Hunter Pence deal. He eventually made it to the majors with the Astros with mixed results. He is currently a free agent, The WBC is basically an audition for the 29 year old pitcher - and appears to be going well as of now.

Josh Zeid: 2011 Bowman Platinum Prospects #BPP23 (xfractor)
The top card on this post is an x-Fractor, We have paired the card with a base cousin here. Not sure why folks go crazy over x-Fractors, not my thing. I suppose the relative scarcity is an attraction. Regardless I think one could get a Zeid x-Fractor if really desidred

The backs of the cards are exactly the same - the serial numbers even match.
