1982 Topps Appreciation:  Here's a hodge podge of four former Expos to have played with the Phillies at some point during the 1980s.  Stan Bahnsen actually pitched for the Phillies in 8 games during the 1982 season, compiling a respectable 1.35 ERA over 13 1/3 innings.  I created a Phillies Missing Links card for Bahnsen here.

By the way, this Phillies Missing Links series isn't dead yet.  I have plans to finish up the 23-card set featuring the Phillies Missing Links of the 1990s at some point . . .
