Let’s face facts, many collectors these days are fed up over the perceived recycled designs and ideas plaguing the baseball card market. Just how many more “X” designs can Upper Deck incorporate into their products? How many more dead brands will Topps resurrect to feed the retro-themed zombies?
These days, custom card makers aren’t just designing [...]

Mariano Rivera’s Race To 500 Saves!!! Part 2

I’m not talking about the box toppers that are a bit of a bonus. I’m talking about the base cards that are inserted into the packs. Its a nice idea, but I think it was strangely done. This is the buyback base card I pulled out of my recent box break of 2009 Upper Deck [...]

Even though Hamilton is on the shelf for a little while, he is still making the news in MLB, thanks to the newly enacted fan voting for the Home Run Derby. I don’t think Hamilton will be back in time for the All-Star festivities, but it shows that a lot of fans remember his performance [...]
