Have heard rumors that you can get a chrome auto in blaster retail boxes, have any of you ever pulled one? They are not on the odds on the box

I just recently open a retail pack and got a Sign of the Future of a Phillies SS prospect. Don't remember his name. But I've pulled autos from retail packs before.

It's Freddy Galvis. He is actually pretty good(gold glove defense, not a great bat currently).

That's him. Isn't SS in the Phillies organization kind of a dead end right now with Rollins there?

I've pulled a bunch. Posey Ref, Posey Blue, Beckham, Inoa (not the redemption), Flores, Flores X and I think Montero (unless I am remembering the name incorrectly).

Not the way he's playing for my fantasy team...

Well where Galvis is, it really doesn't matter who is up there. He can always be traded, I don't have real high expectations, but he might surprise some people.

Even though scouts don't like to do it, he's compared to Omar Vizquel defensively.

This is interesting to read. I thought there weren't chrome autos in the blasters either....They aren't listed on the boxes.

I have opened numerous blasters and have never pulled a chrome auto...I have pulled Orange refractors, and other low numbered, but never a chrome auto.

I believe you can pull a chrome auto out of blisters but not blasters

Noobie question time. What's the difference between a blister and blaster.

A blister is a single pack enclosed in a cardboard pack.

No. You can pull (I have pulled several) chrome autos out of blasters.

I have purchased both draft and regular bowman blasters before because this is how I get a starter set going and then I do singles after a few blasters.I can safely say that chrome autos can and are pulled out of them.I have noticed I got a lot more of the Signs of the Future autos lately but I have received regular chrome autos of prospects as well.The one off hand I can remember was a Nick Schmidt auto.

Not to get into it with him or even create a debate because honestly...I care little either way but if I recall a while back...I think he said he pack searches or at least condones it(which would lead one to think he does indeed pack search).This was on the old boards and I may be thinking about the wrong guy but if I am not...well there you go.Weighing packs can be an effective means.If I am mistaken...no hard feelings.I am not looking for an argument...just simply trying to recall what I remember.

That is 2007... Which in 2007 they stated the chrome auto odds on the boxes of blasters....

This year, 2008, they do NOT state chrome auto odds

I understand that.I am simply saying all the autos (save Kyle Drabek) that I have pulled from Bowman have been no namers.The only one I remember off hand was Schmidt.That may have very well been from 2007.But its not the last one I have pulled.I'd have to go through my commons box to see who else.
