How is everyone else doing with this set? I hated it at first, but now that I have most of them and I'm beginning to figure out the different parallels I'm starting to like it. The worst thing is that for the trios he's paired with two Phillies, pictured with the Sox, and listed as being on the Giants. I'm up to 21/26 and am missing two single patches /99, a dual position jersey /20, a trios jersey /25, and a trios patch /25. I managed to obtain all of the super short-printed cards, so I'm not sure how I don't have the two single patches /99. I hope it's not like the Bowman Originals autographs where people don't know what exists, but at least I haven't found any that aren't listed by Beckett. If you're confused about the set, I've listed what they are above each scan.

I never liked the die cut design when you didn't fill all the windows with jersey, that just spells cheap to me. Fleer
mastered that level of cheapness. Ugly Ugly design in my opinion. Rowand with the white sox, but he played
with the Phillies. UD has the worst designs

UD is probably trying to use up a White Sox jersey that they have, even though a more current jersey would have been better. His regular cards from the past few years picture him in Phillies or Giants uniforms, but whenever he had a game-used card they would use a White Sox jersey and use a picture of him in a Sox uniform. They still used a Sox jersey for 2009 SPx, but they finally got a Phillies jersey for 2009 UD and 2009 UD Timeline.

yeah you are probably right, but that really kills the value of the card. Why do they put Yankees on with
red sox and phillies on with mets, who buys those cards?

Good Luck with the set
