The Jose Cruz Workout

Today's card of the day is Jose Cruz 1984 Fleer


Jose was the 1st major leaguer to jump on the excercise bandwagon of the 1980's. He would often be seen before games doing stretching and 'jazzercize' routines in the outfield. Never one to sit idly by, he would lead the bench in dumbbell curls while the opposing team batted. He would often wear red, yellow and orange striped legwarmers while he shagged fly balls in the outfield during batting practice and he released a series of workout tapes modeled after "The Jane Fonda Workout" entitled "The Jose Cruz Workout".
