LAST WEEK'S HOT LIST

 

[SeattleSports]

I'd replace Berkman w/ Brennan Boesch.

And get rid of Grienke and his 5 ER in 14 IP this week and put Tim Stauffer #2. 15 IP, 9 H, 0 R, 13 K's. Solid!

Reyes has been really good as well. Not sure that Lee's best RC card is not a signed one...

 

[blitzerlover]

That isn't Hanson's best rookie card....

 

[Zymco]

That isn't Hanson's best rookie card....

My thought, bc all the way.

 

[koal]

That isn't Hanson's best rookie card....

what is?

also, that isnt leake's best. he has a BC auto

edit: nvrmd i assume you were talking about his sterling auto

 

[sportscardtheory]

In keeping with the "Major League" theme of the weekly list, I'm sticking with the "true" rookie stuff. No prospect (pre-MLB) cards. Just pre-2006 true RCs and the best post-2005 Rookie Logo cards.

The two big guys - Ortiz and Fielder were incredible, especially Fielder.
