Trade Me Anything XVIII: #2

Yeah, it's been a long time since I've done a TMA post.  There's a stack of unopened packages, and since the trade you're about to see was delivered, some of the guys on the cards aren't on the same team as they were when they were sent.  This long-time-coming trade was courtesy of Brendan, whose patience I appreciate.  (Maybe I should do this in a different season?  Nah, it wouldn't be the same without the breakneck December rush.)

Giving:
#US194 Juriskcon Profar Rainbow Foil, #MYS-9 Juan Soto Mystical, #T89CU-50 Ketel Marte 1989 Topps 35th Anniversary Refractor

Getting: 
Brendan sent a nice stack of cards, and by my logic, they fit into a few different groups.
First up, Guys Who Were Brewers Up Until a Few Weeks Ago.
We're going to miss Willy, but in truth, the Giants overpaid.  Devin caused me more heartache than he will ever know.  I wish them both well.
Next, Yount and Molitor.
I wouldn't be worth my salt as a Brewer fan if I didn't already have these, but you can never have too many.
The MoCo (Missouri Connection)
Two great players.  I'm slowly putting together the 1988 Score set.  I'll have to check if I still need either of these.
FOOBAW
Some new, some old.
And finally, one oddball that fit into none of these categories, 2022 Topps Heritage #NF-15 Watergate Hearings Begin.  My mom was always proud to share that the day Nixon resigned, she put an American flag outside the front door.
Thanks for the trade, Brendan, it was a great mix of everything!
