Isn't every Little Leaguer's dream to make it to the Majors and end up on a baseball card some day?

Imagine how Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Daniel Hudson must have felt when he saw an unflattering picture of him on his 2013 Topps baseball card.

The 26-year-old starting pitcher, about to begin his fifth season in the majors and third with the D-backs, was going through fan mail when he first noticed the card ...

... and he wasn't too pleased. Turns out the the baseball card company used a photo of Hudson moments after he tore the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow in a June 26, 2012, game at Atlanta.

Thank @toppscards for using a close up of me right after my elbow blew out! Card will be around forever as areminder! pic.twitter.com/sXI1HWzu8D
