    4 Bowman Blasters - My best ever retail hit

    Picked up 4 blasters at Target on the way home from work mainly hoping to pull some Kris Bryant base cards for autographs tomorrow night in Chattanooga. First three yielded a Bryant mini chrome and a Michael Feliz auto but no Bryant base. Last blaster didn't have any Bryant base either but the...

    Leaf Trinity Patches

    This has probably been asked before and I apologize if that is the case, but where did the patches come from for Leaf Trinity? Most of those guys have obviously yet to make the Majors so are they "event worn", from Spring Training, etc.? Also, what is up with Oscar Taveras' autograph on those...

    Biggest problem with the Hall of Fame is . . .

    . . . not PED's but the current crop of voters that either (a) have an ax to grind (b) are completely incapable of removing emotiion from their votes (c) are completely incapable of applying context, logic, and consistency to their analysis (d) don't do any analysis at all (e) are outright...

    Heritage High Auto Prices

    I am really intrigued by this set and how it has played out so far. A good case study for manufacturers and collectors alike. As last year showed, it has the potential to be a homerun. This year, not so much. I started an earlier thread that tried to analyze relatve print runs of the autos and...

    Heritage High Autographs

    After several days of being live, I'm surprised at how few Heritage High Autos have been posted or sold on eBay. As discussed in other threads, the print run is obviously up from last year which has dampened enthusiasm. IMO the auto checklist is deeper but that hasn't seemed to matter. Some are...

    Holy Crap - I'm an Idiot - Buxton 1/1

    I busted a jumbo case of Bowman at release and set aside a Buxton card that I thought was the regular ice version. Basically a $10 - $15 card. Decided to sift through some cards while watching the AS game and happened to come across said Buxton and noticed the color looked off. Turned it...

    My 10 Boxes of Turkey Red

    Finally got mine on Friday and happy overall. Didn't hit any of the huge autos but also managed to not get any Fiers, Ciskeks, or Carignans. Ended up with 2 Archer's but he's the guy with some upside of the "common" autos so no complaints there and definitely beat the odds on the rare ones...

    Huge shoutout to HoustonCollector (Field Level View)!!!

    I was lucky enough to win HoustonCollector's (fieldlevelview.com) 'guess the ebay ending price' contest on a Heyward black refractor pulled during his review of Bowman Sterling. The prize involved him taking over half of the proceeds from the sale and buying items for my collection. I've...

    Bobby Cox

    The top of the ninth is a perfect summation of Bobby's managing. First of all, why the f$%^ is Diory Hernandez on the postseason roster if he isn't going to be used as a defensive replacement - especially when you've got a guy who has been an absolute butcher out there? If he isn't going to be...

    Braves

    It has been five years since the Braves made the playoffs but it is like they never left. (1) Offensive futility in big games. Check. (2) Zero plate discipline. Check. (3) Bobby playing matchups despite the evidence and odds (the IBB to Pablo). Check. (4) Short end of umpiring. Check...

    Yunel

    I was not a fan of this trade for the Braves when it was made and I hate it more and more with every error made by Gonzalez and with every swing he takes at a ball a foot off the plate. The Braves biggest flaw the past 20 years IMO is their over reliance on popularity in the clubhouse and in...

    2010 Bowman Hobby Box from National

    Could no longer resist the itch to overpay for a box of this stuff. It is just such a fun rip and my recent breaks of older, cheaper Bowman products have been lackluster at best. Found a box for $169 on Sunday and took the plunge. Here are the hits: Strasburg base chrome Harper base chrome...

    Pomeranz Super!

    Finished busting my jumbo case and ended up with a ton of refractors - especially of the USA variety including a Grandal blue and a Taillon orange. Last box yielded my first ever Superfractor - Drew Pomeranz!!!! Will almost certainly list with a BIN/BO. Thoughts on price? His refractors seem...
