A WEEK IN THE LIFE: CARD COMPANIES RUSH PIAZZA'S MARLIN CARD

          While Mike Piazza was a Marlin for just a week, he will
     be featured in that team's uniform in a number of trading
     cards hitting the market in July, according to Alan Snel of
     the Fort Lauderdale SUN-SENTINEL.  Fleer/SkyBox Int'l, Upper
     Deck and Pinnacle will all feature trading cards with Piazza
     in a Marlins uniform.  Trading card shops "expect the Piazza
     Marlins cards to go for $3 to $5 initially."  Fleer rushed
     its production of a Piazza card, and Fleer Dir of
     Photography Al Ainspan said, "We knew Piazza would be
     traded.  We just didn't think it would happen that fast"
     (Alan Snel, Fort Lauderdale SUN-SENTINEL, 5/27).
