I’ve got to get this up before 4:10. Of course I had to leave right field for last. The Mets have had more right fielders in their history than any other position. Typical. Anyway… In honor of the 50th Anniversary of the New York Mets, I’ve been looking at the primary players at each position […]

On we march. This is part 2 of the cards I was able to procure from Sportlots for about the price of a blaster. As usual, I’m beginning with the most recent cards and working my way back. First up is a couple of Ginter mini’s. Although I don’t have the inclination to put together […]

A long, long time ago, the fellers over at Community Gum (who by the way have one of my favorite blog headers ever) had held a Pack Lottery Contest that I had joined in on. Now, I must admit that I was a little confused as to how exactly the contest worked. Or I guess […]

Now that I’m a full-blown Texas Rangers fan (until they either win the World Series or get knocked out of the playoffs) I thought I’d support the boys in the first game of the ALCS against the evil empire Yankees tonight by sharing some cards from my extensive Texas Rangers collection. Go Rangers! Gums.

I don’t care what everyone says. I’ll miss you and your awesome right arm. Just when I was learning how to spell your name correctly, too. By the way, I can’t believe I only have one card of Frenchy as a Met scanned.

Here we go with pack number 2. #286 Revolving Door (For the most part I’m a pretty big fan of the more out-there subjects in Allen & Ginter, but really? A revolving door? Out of all the things ever in the history of everything, that’s the best you could do?) #148 Anne Donovan #147 Cristian […]

So it’s finally here. I guess technically yesterday was the season opener, but really who cares about the defending world champs playing against their bitter rivals at one of the oldest ballparks in the country. SNORE! Right now as I type this, we’re looking at roughly 3 hours until Johan Santana throws the first pitch […]

A while back, I posted up some relics and autos that I had for trade. Reader Eric had sent this my way in exchange for that Adam Dunn jersey. This particular one was a perfect trade for me. When I decided to offer up those particular cards for trade, I was a wee bit hesitant […]

This is the last of the posts highlighting my Christmas acquisitions, namely the box of ’07 Bowman Heritage I got from Dave and Adam’s Card World. Just to keep people from being terribly bored by this post, I will stick to just the good stuff. Before I get into it though, some quick thoughts / […]
