This is a joke right........


umm no


there are always a few stinkers


i don't understand why people get upset about these
Because out of all the top rookies this year they pick Jose Tabata? This kid isn't even doing good.
I can give you 5 people I would rather have.
If you can name 5 people you would rather have, then wouldn't he deserve a spot? I believe there are 10 of these, no? That means, since he is the 6th best rookie, he deserves a spot in the Topps Red Hot Rookies set.
No I'll name all 10
Carlos Santana
Buster Posey
Pedro Alverez
Mike Stanton
Mike Leake
Strasburg
Jason Heyward
Mike Leake
Austin Jackson
Brendan Bosech
Ike Davis.

Give or take a better name here and there. But thats what it should look like and I would give alverez an auto

And so does Posey. And Ike Davis has a Pie in face variation, but no rookie logo card.

Carlos Santana - Red Hot #1
Buster Posey - Series one RC
Pedro Alverez
Mike Stanton - Finest #5
Mike Leake - Series 2 RC; Finest #4
Stephen Strasburg
Jason Heyward - Series 2 RC
Mike Leake - Series 2 RC and a repeated name
Austin Jackson - Series 2 RC
Brendan Boesch
Ike Davis - Finest #2

Really, out of all of those guys give him the auto?

Anyways, you have three players that I consider locks to a Red Hot or Finest, which still leaves 9 players to fill a gap. Now given that players will still get called up this year, I see Tabata as an "on the border" rookie, and that is because he was once a Yankees prospect for those who remember.

I'm glad that I didn't pick up this one yet, as my set only needs 1, 2, and 6 and it is done. I've dodged two bullets already and look in good shape to dodge the third.

Geez, I hope Strasburg's MCG RC doesn't disqualify him. I have a complete set I'm holding on to until he is announced.

If anyone wants to give their copy away let me know. That is a sharp looking card!

Agreed on both accounts. That is one nice looking card, and considering how few cards he has out there, might just be enough motivation for me to start a new player collection.

Just because a guy has a RC already doesn't mean they won't use him, but in the past they have only used guys who don't have RC logo cards yet IN THAT PRODUCT. The point of the redmptions is te expand the checkilist for that product...not add more cards of guys who are already in it. Id say Brennan Boesch is a prime candidate to be one of the next few in both of the finest and Topps redemption sets.
