Had to go to Walmart for some essentials in case we lose power with the 50 mph winds we are having today and to see if 206 blasters hit. I've been waiting on these for 2 weeks.
I will get to those in a sec. They had the Tristar Prospects Blasters (with one Strasburg card per box) there but it didn't guarantee an auto like in years past, are they not one per box this year? Anyway, ended up with 2 packs.
I am in no way a prospector so I have no idea what I got, I was happy to pull a Brett Jackson though.
I pulled:
Nick Franklin/Dustin Ackley
Borchering/Mier/Franklin/Davidson (these would be awesome signed TTM)
Ackley/Tate/*******/Mithcell
Jenkins
Jackson
Storen
Baron
Minor
Jacobs
Schwindenhammer
There were a bunch of Heritage "jumbo" packs hanging on the peg.
I usually don't buy these because of the searchers, but I have always had good luck with the "jumbo" packs in the past.
I open the pack and I see a redemption (3rd different redemption I've pulled out of Topps in the last 2 weeks.)
It is a Raul Ibanez Real One Autograph......but wait, what does Special Edition mean?
It means its a RED AUTO! 1 in 530 packs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything else was pretty anticlimactic after that.
Here are the hits:
Corey "I wear my sunglasses at night" Hart Cycle /99
Ryan Braun Polar Bear
Lou Gehrig SP NNO
Ichiro SP NNO
Golds:
Iwamura
Pierzynski
Pierre
D Lee
LeBlanc
Papelbon
Fontenot

Notable Base:
Gordan Beckham
