Mudcatsfan · Mar 1, 2009

Yeah its early but this is now a FULL WEEK'S worth of stats, so don't bother with the, wow, Mudcats, you're getting a little excited about 7 days worth of spring stats.

Yes i'm excited, but i've waited all winter and i'm finally allowed to be

Total Bases:

Only in spring is Brett Gardner as good as Josh Hamilton

I like to track this stat for short periods of performance, as it takes lots of different skill sets into account. Gardner is clearly in the lead for the Yanks CF job from this first week of performance.

Jeremy Hermida might be ready to break out !??!?!

Chris Shelton partying like it's 2006

Jason Lane is back?

TUIASOSOPOOOOOOO Where's that Red Refractor I love so much?

The guy who bought it off of me actually contacted me not long ago about a card I was selling, I believe he said he resold it. So who knows where the "awesomeness" is.

Here's something from my Photobucket though...

I bid on that card when it was up on auction. Of course my bid got Smashed right out of the Universe.

I agree I love those too. 05 greens, and golds were really awesome. The gold that year really popped for some reason.

Correct, but i had HEARD that he worked a deal to sell it / trade it to a BMB member. Not sure if that was true though.

I thought Mike Marinaro made a trade for it but I could be wrong. The one in Phil's bucket did not have the hologram on the back so it was not certified by topps. According to Phil, topps sent him two reds to sign and he kept one of them.

Nikobaseball · Mar 2, 2009

To clear up the Hughes thing;

Hughes signed one of em (doesn't have the authentic sticker from topps or certified auto stamp on it) and it now sits in my local card shop in Flushing, NY. The owner of the card has a name here (yycxhange I think). He was on beckett too. I've seen the card in person. It's slabbed Authentic by BGS, and it looks absolutely SICK. 04 red ref auto, essentially a 1/1. It's an amazing card.

I dunno, I'm still pretty partial to the 2002's. It's close though.

(Not sure why the scans are so small)

Now if we're talking best refractor from any Bowman product, I go 2004 Bowman Sterling, especially the autographed Black Refractors. Sorry, no Tui pick.

I like the silver ink on black. But I don't think the refractors popped as much.

Really? I bought it for $800 from a board member, then when I started selling off a good chunk of my collection it brought a little over $300, so I'd be surprised if it got much more than that. I dunno.

Right on. Never bought a Black ref. but I've still got a Ref and Base 9.5/10. I like the Xfractors from 04' too. # /125.

The regular refractors didn't, but the Black and Red really did.

I gotcha. It's weird how that was. Usually the blacks now don't pop as much as the other colors. And really it just seems odd in general that there is so much variation between years. It's the same technology. The lack of consistency is odd.
