Tim Stauffer Baseball

The California native made 140 career appearances for the Padres, establishing himself as a reliable mid-rotation arm during the franchise's competitive years in the late 2000s. Stauffer's most collectible cards come from Topps issues released during his active seasons, particularly his 2012 releases as his career wound down. Collectors seeking Stauffer cards typically focus on Topps base sets and parallel variations from the mid-to-late 2000s, when he was a regular fixture in San Diego's rotation. While Stauffer never reached Hall of Fame status and lacked major postseason achievements, his consistent presence in the Padres lineup makes his cards accessible to team collectors and those building comprehensive pitcher collections. His cards remain modestly priced, making them ideal for set builders and Padres fans completing rosters from the 2005–2012 era. Stauffer's catalog footprint is concentrated in mainstream Topps releases rather than premium or specialty sets, keeping his cards widely available in the secondary market.
