One and Done: 2005-2006

This is the seventeenth, and final, part of my running theme, unimaginatively dubbed 'One and Done'. Here, I focus on cards of Reds players who, whether it be their only year in the bigs or their only year with the club, found themselves on the Cincinnati roster for only one season, yet long enough to sneak onto a card donning the Cincinnati red. That was a very convoluted sentence that I am choosing not to edit.

Today we're looking at 2005 and 2006. This finishes up the One and Done series. I'll go back and edit some omissions from previous posts, and update as needed in the future. But anyway, 2005 saw 11 one-and-doners and 2006 saw a whopping 19. Geez. I only have 11 of these (5 and 6, repectively), which is sorry.
