Since the first post in this series I was actually able to sell some of those 2007 U&H cards with no foil stamping. The Glavine went for $5.00 and I got $3.00 for all of the commons. Nice to have some free money in the ol' eBay account. The next pack I'm choosing to share is one of the two 2019 Topps Series 1 packs. Shall we?
132 Miguel Andujar
313 Robinson Cano
157 Buster Posey
104 Joe Musgrove
280 Miles Mikolas
121 Joey Wendle
That first card continues the tradition of the Cardinals having a guy on the roster named Carpenter with an extremely punchable face that goes back to the sandlot days of 1832.
This is part of a Wal-mart-exclusive insert set. Pretty cool and I will listen to trade offers if anyone is interested.
SSB-93 Albert Pujols Stars of the Game
Is it just me, or do the Pujols Angels cards make you feel melancholy? Yeah, he was a mortal enemy, but he didn't deserve to languish in the boonies of MLB. He was hitting milestones and shit in Anaheim and they made his career look like a joke. It gives everyone with a "yeah, but..." a legitimate argument because he just became irrelevant.
134 Sean Reid-Foley
339 Josh Harrison
The Harrison is a great shot, though he should take off that dagblasted mitten.
Oakland Coliseum always looked beautiful from aerial photos like this, it's a shame they never got an "economically viable" stadium built. Actually, it's more a a shame that a revenue generating stadium is a requirement, not just a nice place to watch baseball. This sport is slowly killing itself.
326 Heath Fillmyer
60 Kyle Tucker
85 Garrett Hampson
146 Jesse Winker
A nice end to the pack with the Tucker rookie and a future one-season Brewer.
Well, that's the end of the pack. A pack with 16 cards in it feels like the right amount. If I'm elected President this November, I'm signing an executive order declaring this to be the minimum number of cards contained within a single pack. I approve this message.
Hey, two guys on the current Mets roster!
ReplyDeleteA lot of well-established stars have come to the Angels in their later years and have either not lived up to their potential or had no supporting team around them. Frustrating and disappointing being their fan sometimes.
ReplyDeleteVoting for Posey.
