TOTALLY AGREE!
When I started my Brooks set a few years ago, I would always say how ugly that card looked. My dad and I had a funny conversation about what happened. Was it mid-sneeze? Is it bad photography/touch-up? At that point, he was mostly a glove-first nobody, so I can imagine Topps just saying "Fine, whatever....just print the card. He'll be out of the league in 5 years anyway."
I was able to find a couple examples with great blue color that grew on me, but you're right. Not their best work.
