Brantley gets the call! w/ PC scans.

[muchuckwagon]

I'm was very excited to see the Tribe call up Mike Brantley last night. He actually played rather than sitting on the bench! I was worried they would promote him and let him collect dust on the bench like they did with Laporta earlier in the year!

Not a bad showing in his first MLB game, collecting 2 hits in 4 AB's!

Here is glimpse of my graded collection....there are more PSA 10 / BGS 9.5 blue and gold refractors not scanned, plus countless raw refractors and printing plates. The two BGS 10 refractors might be my favorites!

How are you posting on the boards? I thought you were in the restroom with these cards having a special moment.

I didn't even make it two steps down the hall and I finished.

I mean, I'm saving myself.....for you.

No Tribe or Brantley fans around?

I cheer for them each time I watch Major League.

I remember when his dad Mickey was a rookie and I got his autograph on his 1987 Donruss card at the old Arlington Stadium.
I feel so old.

That might be one of my favorite sets from when I was a kid....'84 Topps also holds a special place along with '83 Donruss.

I have a raw blue ref of him, hopefully he does well. He should get plenty of AB's as CBS is saying Sizemore is done for the season.
