First want to thank Bryan for getting the cases to me quickly and securely!

I will share my quick story then list the full break, nothing is for trade or for sale here as it will all be going on Ebay Saturday night!

I busted through my first case, it was pretty average to good, nothing exceptional, nothing awful, 16 autos, but no Aflac, ugh. So I start going through the second case and I am getting crushed, nothing really good comes out of it. I get to box 11 and get my first Manny Machado base auto. I get to the last box and pull my first Taillon autograph, but with 5 packs I still have no Aflac auto yet. I open up that fifth pack and right on the top...Boom 44/230 Bryce Harper Aflac, needless to say I was freaking out before I pulled it, then turned that to elation after it. Now onto the break:

Autographs (31):
Aflac (1): Bryce Harper 44/230
Base Chrome (17): Pomeranz, Gary Brown, Colon x2, Taillon, Machado, DeShields, Deglan, Culver, Wimmers, Lindsey, McGuire, Clarke, Aaron Sanchez, Skole, Josh Sale and Chris Sale
Refractor Chrome (5): Zach Cox 45/500, Deck McGuire 166/500, Kolbrin Vitek 216/500, Ryan Bolden 140/500, Chance Ruffin 57/500
Blue Refractor (2): Mike Kvasnicka 125/150, Mike Foltynewicz 132/150
USA Base Auto (1): Adrian Marin
USA Refractor Auto (4): Chris Chinea 22/199, Marc Brakeman 69/199, Alex Bregman 67/199, Lucas Sims 162/199
USA Blue Refractor Auto (1): Carson Kelly 5/99

Printing Plates (1):
Luis Atilano Magenta 1/1 (of course I get a complete joke of a player)

Orange Refractor (1):
Jason Donald 12/25 (of course some crappy green RC)

Gold Refractors (5):
Cesar Valdez 37/50, Michael Dunn 2/50, Ivan Nova 30/50; Logan Darnell FY 44/50; Carter Jurica FY 47/50 (the terrible green RC syndrome strikes again)

Blue Refractors (14, 7 FY, 7 RC):
FY: Ben Heath 188/199, Bobby Doran 16/199, Chris Sale 117/199, Ryan Brett 18/199, Kellin Deglan 130/199, Nick Travieso 109/199, Josh Sale 97/199
RC: Stephen Strasburg 178/199, Michael Dunn 159/199, Brennan Boesch 5/199, Chris Nelson 76/199, Erik Kratz 197/199, Lorenzo Cain 84/199, Eric Young Jr. 96/199 (Even collation here, the Strasburg is pretty sweet, got excited when I pulled that at the tail end of my first case)

Refractors (54, 26 FY, 28 RC): Notables were Yelich, Choice, Deglan, Cowart, Wimmers, Lipka and Betts (The green ones contained the worst collection of schulbs one could imagine, no Posey/Stanton/Stras/Brown/Heyward etc)

Blue Parallels (29, 15 FY, 14 RC): Notables were Josh Sale and Zack Cox (The RC's again were a terrible mix of trash)

So much fun to be back busting cases again, this is my first baseball case in 3 years and I enjoyed it thoroughly, thanks for the read and comments are appreciated.
