[[1993 Donruss]] is a 792-card set issued in two series of 396 cards -- the largest Donruss Baseball set to date. Player selection in the second series is weighted heavily towards the two expansion franchises that made their debut in '93: The Colorado Rockies and Florida Marlins.
[[2009 Kellogg's Japan]] is a set of six "rulers" produced for the Japanese market. Each ruler measures fifteen centimeters and features lenticular printing of the player "in action." Unlike the previous two year's Kellogg's Japan sets, these "cards" do not have the Upper Deck branding.
 
A Rated Rookies (RR) subset, scattered throughout the set, spotlights 20 young prospects. There are no key Rookie Cards in this set.
